What is the immortal aspect of Goethe's appearance, and how does it recognize itself in today's humanity? It will always be one of the most astonishing phenomena in the entire history of thought how Goethe transcends the development of centuries and infuses his strength into it. Here, an eternal essence shines forth from the constellations of three centuries into the epochs, and this eternal essence remains the strongest and most vibrant force in our entire tradition. However, we are aware that we perceive Goethe differently today than the 19th century did. The temporal aspects of Goethe have become more distinct from the eternal. The Publishing House of Sciences publishes historical literature by both well-known and lesser-known scientific authors. This makes works that have long been out of print accessible again to the interested reader. This book is about Goethe in his relationships.
