Description

Description from Project Gutenberg

"Satyros oder Der vergötterte Waldteufel" by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe is a play written in 1773. When a hermit rescues an injured satyr, his act of kindness is repaid with theft and sacrilege. The satyr encounters villagers and, through mysterious charm and seductive preaching, convinces them he is divine. As the deluded crowd abandons civilization to worship their false god, only the hermit dares challenge the impostor—a defiance that may cost him his life.
