Werther, a young sensibility and romantic, meets and falls in love with Lotte. Although she realizes that Lotte is going to marry Albert, a man she admires but also hates, she is unable to contain her passion for love for Lotte which makes her despair. The Suffering of Werther Youth is considered the first major tragic novel in European literature and later greatly influenced the 18th century ‘Romanticism’ movement.
