Nathan the Wise

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. With the exception of Goethe's faust, there is no poem in German literature which has received so much Special study as nathan the wise, or which has so well rewarded it. Probably the best critical monograph which it has generated is the essay by Kuno Fischer. This has been translated by the translator of the poem, pruned Of some of its Ger man redundancy, and put into a form better suited than the original one, to the anglo-saxon require ments Of terseness and directness. The modified version will be found at the end of this volume.
