The Legacy of Malthus (1994) cast and crew credits, including actors, actresses, directors, writers and more.
In 1799, Malthus made a European tour with William Otter, a close college friend, travelling part of the way with Edward Daniel Clarke and John Marten Cripps, visiting Germany, Scandinavia and Russia. Malthus used the tour to gather population data.
The first English version, by Daniel Malthus, was published in 1779 as The Sorrows of Werter, using the French text, rather than Goethe's original, as its base. It is not therefore a strict translation, but since presumably the Creature reads this novel in its French adaptation, this is the version included in this hypertext edition .
