"In 1786, when he was already the acknowledged leader of the Sturm und Drang literary movement, Goethe set out on a journey to Italy to fulfil a personal and artistic quest and to find relief from his responsibilities and the agonies of unrequited love. As he travelled to Venice, Rome, Naples and Sicily he wrote many letters, which he later used as the basis for the Italian Journey. A journal full of fascinating observations on art and history, and the plants, landscape and the character of the local people he encountered, this is also a moving account of the psychological crisis from which Goethe emerged newly inspired to write the great works of his mature years." -- Book cover.

In this classic of speculative science, Goethe, the author of Faust and one of the world's greatest thinkers, provides a unique perspective on the nature of color. While not scientifically correct in light of current knowledge, the book is invaluable in its exploration of color, art, aesthetics, and philosophy. Its inimitable prose and stimulating ideas have made it a longtime favorite with intelligent readers.

Zeitloses Geschehen: "Der Stoff ist ja von gestern und heut!" Charakterisiert ein Xenion die "unheilige Weltbibel", der Goethe während der Schreckensherrschaft der französischen Revolution begegnete. Ihm ging es darum, kein neues Werk zu dichten, sondern den alten Bestand der Fabel möglichst getreu wiederzugeben und der alten Volkserzählung ihren zeitlosen Sinn zu offenbaren. Um ihren "köstlichen Gehalt" in die hohe Sphären der antiken Epen zu heben, wählte Goethe auch das erhabenste Versmass, den Hexamter. Tatsächlich werden auch heute noch Jugendliche mit Vergnügen dieser poetischen Sprache, wenn auch oft nicht mehr vertraut, folgen und den tieferen Sinn verstehen. Dieter Wiesmüllers präzise und humorvolle Zeichnungen helfen dabei, das trubulente Geschehen am Hofe Nobels voller Ränkespiele und Schlaumeierei in die heutige Zeit zu übertragen und die Tierfabel als Spiegel menschlicher Unzulänglichkeit zu sehen. Wer diese wie Reineke, der schlaue Erzgauner, zu nutzen versteht, findet auch in der heutigen Gesellschaft seinen Vorteil, davon berichten die Medien täglich. Ab 12 Jahren, *****, Elisabeth Tschudi-Moser.
