He is widely regarded as the greatest and most influential writer in the German language, his work having a profound and wide-ranging influence on Western literary, political and philosophical thought from the late 18th century to the present day.[3][4] Goethe took up residence in Weimar in November 1775 following the success of his first novel, The Sorrows of Young Werther (1774). He was ennobled by the Duke of Saxe-Weimar, Karl August, in 1782. Goethe was an early participant in the Sturm und Drang literary movement. During his first ten years in Weimar, Goethe became a member of the Duke's privy council, sat on the war and highway commissions, oversaw the reopening of silver mines in nearby Ilmenau, and implemented a series of administrative reforms at the University of Jena. He also contributed to the planning of Weimar's botanical park and the rebuilding of its Ducal Palace.[5][b] colorado springs craft, horror ,goth, gifts, oddity, oddities, halloween, statement jewelry, feminist, feminist jewelry, f*ck the patriarchy, rave, candy, plur, lolita, pastel, Kawaii, Gore, Vamp, Witch, upcycle, recycle, dotd, day of the dead, Muerte
