Verified Answer :

B.Johann Wolfgang von Goethe wrote The Sorrows of Young Werther. Werther is a young  romantic with a passionate temperament. That Goethe wrote him as the main character is curious  when you consider that later Goethe tried to distance himself from the  Romantic movement (he  thought that the movement's support of wearing your emotions on your sleeve was inferior to contained passion).
