About this audiobook
“Erotica Romana” by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe is a collection of 24 elegiac poems written in the late 18th century. The work draws inspiration from classical Roman poets such as Tibullus and Catullus, exploring the themes of love, desire, and beauty against the evocative backdrop of Rome. The text is characterized by a sensual and introspective tone, reflecting Goethe’s experiences and reflections during his stay in Italy.
Page after page, a narrator in love guides us through secret encounters, nights of intimacy, and reflections on the very essence of passion, celebrating the charm of his beloved with vivid imagery and lyrical language that still enchants today.
Blurring the lines between myth and reality, idealization and earthly pleasure, “Erotica Romana” is a daring journey into the soul of love: an invitation to rediscover, through the eyes of one of the greatest poets in world literature, the intoxicating beauty of seduction and the complexity of human attraction.
A timeless classic for those who aren’t afraid to let themselves be swept away by the poetry of desire.
