Excerpt from GoetheEvery scholar has his own Dante, his own Shakspere, his own Goethe. This book presents my Goethe as I see him after nearly forty years of university teaching dur ing which he has never been long out of my thoughts. I came to him as an undergraduate by _way of Carlyle, and it was largely the spell of Goethe's great name that made me, in the fulness of time, a professional student of German literature. I am conscious of owing more to him than to any other writer of books. True, the halo that he used to wear in my mind's eye has grown a little dimmer in the lapse of years, but his human features have come out the more clearly. I like him the better for that.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
