The play explores the tragic downfall of a trusting man, reflecting a departure from the earlier Sturm und Drang ideals. Influenced by Shakespearean tragedy, it showcases Goethe's evolution in dramaturgical structure, moving towards more complex themes of betrayal and disillusionment. Completed in 1788, it contrasts with Goethe's earlier work, Götz von Berlichingen, highlighting a more nuanced understanding of human relationships and societal values.
