Sturm und Drang

Etymology
Borrowed from with the same figurative meaning, from  +  +. The phrase is the title of the play Sturm und Drang (1776) by German dramatist Friedrich Maximilian von Klinger (1752–1831).

The fact that the phrase is often italicized suggests it has not been fully assimilated into English.
