GOETHE, the man, the poet, and the author, has been de- scribed over and over. His works have been translated, interpreted, discussed, and it seems almost redundant to return to him again. And yet we venture to offer a book on Goethe. Certain very important phases in Goethe's life appear to have been neglected. Most of his greatest works have been translated into English, a few of them, for instance "Faust," in many different versions, but there are some of his most characteristic poems of which no one has ever ventured to offer a translation, and it is precisely these poems that contain the most thoughtful verses ever written by this great poet, prominent in the literature not only of the German fatherland but of the whole world. We offer this presentation of Goethe with the special purpose in view of bringing out those features of his life which characterize him as a thinker or, perhaps better, as a philosopher. Though Goethe can not be called a philosopher proper, though he had a positive aversion to philosophy as a specialized study, he may fairly well be called a philosopher in the broad sense of the term. He was a thinking man who had a definite world-conception which dominated not only his particular life but also his poetry. Some of the philosophical poems of Goethe are rather difficult to understand and have therefore not become as well known as those other poems of his which were written in a lighter vein. Neverthe- less they are by no means unintelligible to the general reader and possess the advantage of becoming more interesting as soon as their real significance has been grasped. P. C. CONTENTS.

    Jahrbuch für Internationale Germanistik pen Jahrgang LI – Heft 1 | Peter Lang, Bern | S. 57–100 Goethe, the Japanese National Identity through Cultural Exchange, 1889 to 1989 By Stefan Keppler-Tasaki and Seiko Tasaki, Tokyo Dedicated to A . Charles Muller on the occasion of his retirement from the University of Tokyo This is a study of the alleged “singular reception career”1 that Goethe experi- enced in Japan from 1889 to 1989, i. e., from the first translation of theMi gnon song to the last issues of the Neo Faust manga series . In its path, we will high- light six areas of discourse which concern the most prominent historical figures resp. figurations involved here: (1) the distinct academic schools of thought aligned with the topic “Goethe in Japan” since Kimura Kinji 木村謹治, (2) the tentative Japanification of Goethe by Thomas Mann and Gottfried Benn, (3) the recognition of the (un-)German classical writer in the circle of the Japanese national author Mori Ōgai 森鴎外, as well as Goethe’s rich resonances in (4) Japanese suicide ideals since the early days of Wertherism (Ueruteru-zumu ウェル テルヅム), (5) the Zen Buddhist theories of Nishida Kitarō 西田幾多郎 and D . T . Suzuki 鈴木大拙, and lastly (6) works of popular culture by Kurosawa Akira 黒澤明 and Tezuka Osamu 手塚治虫 . Critical appraisal of these source materials supports the thesis that the polite violence and interesting deceits of the discursive history of “Goethe, the Japanese” can mostly be traced back, other than to a form of speech in German-Japanese cultural diplomacy, to internal questions of Japanese national identity .

Some of his works belong to the classical movement and another part of his work belongs to the radical and progressive movement in German Romanticism. In fact, Goethe is known as a poet, scholar and philosopher between the two main streams in Europe: Classicism and Romanticism. He carries the ideas of Classicism and also establishes new ideas of Romanticism. Hence, in terms of aesthetics, he is considered to be among the leading theorists of Romanticism school because he has reflected many creative and pure ideas of Romanticism in his literary and philosophical works. German literature owes to Goethe's intellectual and aestheticism. This article tries to display aesthetic aspects of Goethe’s poem in addition to study the literary and artistic features and characteristics of Romanticism school. © 2016 AESS Publications. All Rights Reserved. Keywords: Poetry, Aesthetics, German literature, Romanticism, Goethe. Contribution/ Originality This study is one of very few studies which have investigated about Goethe and its Aesthetic poetry. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe is one of the German Poets, Writers, Philosophers, and thinkers that he should see a Joint among Classicism and Romanticism literature. Some of his works has belong to the classical movement and another part of his Works belonged to the Radical Movement Romantic is in Germany.

  • The Life of Goethe. Conclusion
    THE LIFE OF GOETHE.* BY THE EDITOR. GOETHE began his great drama Got::: von Bcrlichingcn at the it in end of 1771 : he finished it in 1772 and submitted manu- script to Herder, but when Herder called the poet's attention to its shortcomings Goethe recast the whole, mercilessly canceled long pas- sages and introduced new material. In this revised shape he had it printed at his own expense in June 1773. because he could not find a publisher in Germany who would risk its publication. JOHANN BERNHARD BASEDOW. Many men of prominence had become interested in Goethe and visited him in his father's house. Among them must be mentioned first Johann Caspar Lavater (1741-1801), a pious pastor of Zurich, and Johann Bernhard Basedow, an educator of Hamburg. In com- pany with these two men, both with outspoken theological interests, the young worldling, as Goethe called himself in a poem of that period, undertook a trip along the Rhine in the summer of 1774. * The first instalment of this sketch appeared in the June number. 462 THE OPEN COURT.

At the invitation of Karl August, Duke of Saxe-Weimar, he went in 1775 to live in Weimar, where he held a succession of political offices, becoming the Duke's chief adviser. From 1786 to 1788 he traveled in Italy, and from 1791 to 1817 directed the ducal theater at Weimar.

  • Goethe and the Classical Ideal
    GOETHE AND THE CLASSICAL IDEAL APPROVED! 2or Professor Minor Professor rector 6r the DeparMieKrt of History Deafa. of the Graduate School Eakin, Charles, Goethe and the Classical Ideal. Master of Arts (History)» May , 1973» 190 pp., bibliography* 148 titles« This thesis was written to examine Goethe*s efforts to emulate the Greeks and write in their spirit. Works most helpful in the stud# were Humphry Trevelyan's Goethe and, the Greeks, Kenry Hatfield's Aesthetic Paganism in German Literature, Eliza Butler's The Tyranny of Greece oyer Germany^ and the works of Goethe which show his relationship with the Greeks* The thesis opens with an examination of the nature and the philosophical implications of Goethe's emulation of the Greeks. Next Johann Winckelmann, the founder of Gorman Classical Hellenism is discussed, Winckelmann was exceedingly important in the founding and development of Goethe'a Classical Hellenism, for Winckelmann established a vision of Greece which influenced generations of German poets and scholars. The third chapter examines Goethe's perusal of Greek and Roman literature. Chapter IV deals with Goethe's conceptions of the Greeks during his youth. Goethe's earliest conceptions of the Greeks were colored not only by Winckelmann's Greek vision but also by the Storm and Stress movement. Goethe's Storm and Stress conception cf the Greeks emphasized the violentr titanic forces of ancient Greece. Although Goethe's earlier studies had made the Apollonian aspects of Greek culture overshadow the I Dionysian aspects of .Greece, he caiue after 1789 to realize the importance of the Dionysian* to a great extent# this! change was a reaction to the superficial interpretation of the Greeks "by Rococo Hellenism and its rejection of the Dionysian element.
