This study examines Goethe's interest in Stoical though and applies to his novel Die Wahlverwandtschaften. Using the concept of 'Stoical discourse' which, it is argued is informed by Goethe's reception of Stoicism, a new and original view is offered of what is, by common consent, one of Goethe's most difficult works.
