Summary

Goethe’s Wisdom: Maxims and Reflections

Throughout his long and varied life, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832) captured his thoughts on everything from theatre programs to manuscript drafts. This is the first complete English translation of ‘Maximen und Reflexionen’.

Goethe, perhaps the last true ‘Renaissance Man’, juggled roles as a Privy Councillor, overseeing major projects, with painting, directing plays, scientific research, and producing literary masterpieces.
