Love, Life, Goethe
Lessons of the Imagination from the Great German Poet
John Armstrong
A fresh and perceptive new biography of Germany's greatest poet, whose life and times are a mirror for our own
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe is often remembered only as a figure of literary genius, author of "The Sorrows of Young Werther "and "Faust." Yet Goethe was driven by much more than the desire for literary success: he wanted (much the same as us) to live life well. In "Love, Life, Goethe," John Armstrong tells the dramatic life story of this great poet--a representative man akin to Wordsworth in England or Emerson in America. In so doing, he subtly and imaginatively explores the ways that we can learn from Goethe, whether in love, suffering, friendship, or family. At the center of the project is the human yearning for happiness: In an imperfect world, how can we live well with what we have, and accept what we haven't? From our lives at home, to our attitude toward money and the politicians we choose, Armstrong explores the main themes of our lives through the life of Goethe, and helps us learn how to live.
