Titan: A Romance. v. 1 (of 2)
by Jean Paul
"Titan: A Romance. v. 1 (of 2)" by Jean Paul is a novel published between 1800 and 1803. Divided into "jubilees" and "cycles," it chronicles the education of Albano de Cesara as he transforms from passionate youth to mature ruler. Through characters embodying various extremes—idealistic philosophy, cold aestheticism, political calculation, religious fanaticism, and female emancipation—Jean Paul explores the dangers of one-sidedness. Each surrounding character meets doom through their excesses, teaching the hero the virtue of harmonious balance over concentrated power.
