Laura Natal Rodrigues (Images generously made available by Hathi Trust Digital Library.) "Alide: An Episode of Goethe's Life" by Emma Lazarus is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the young poet Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and his interactions with the Duroc family, particularly focusing on Alide, the charming younger daughter whose spirited nature captivates him. The narrative intertwines elements of Goethe's life with fictionalized accounts of his early romances and social encounters. At the start of the novel, readers are introduced to Dr. Julius Steck, a cover for Goethe, as he ventures to the Duroc household. As he arrives with his friend Max Waldstein, Goethe's vibrant and artistically inclined character is contrasted with the pastoral world of the Durocs, setting up an engaging exploration of his infatuation with Alide. Their initial interactions are filled with warmth and humor, while the family dynamics and picturesque rural setting add depth to the story. The opening sets the scene for a romantic unfolding that highlights not just the charm of young love, but also Goethe's reflective nature and desire to connect with a life beyond the academic, inviting readers into a literary journey rich with emotion and identity.
