Answer 1

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Answer 2

Answer:

Goethe.

Explanation:

The Sturm und drang movement (roughly translated from the German as “storm and drive”, drive, meaning, effort) was an artistic movement in Germany that began during the second half of the 18th century and that is known to be the direct antecedent to the Romantic movement. Both movements stress the relevance of subjective perceptions and of emotions in the building of one´s own character. Without a doubt, Goethe is one of its main figures.
