Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life and Times of Goethe These lectures are not intended to give a biography of Goethe, but to show in what sense he was at once the most real, as well as the most ideal, man and poet that ever lived. I ask for the labor bestowed on this translation the mercy of the reader, and a measure of gratitude that even so much of the intrinsic meaning of a very valuable work can be shared by another public than the one for which it was written. A perfect translation would be simply a re-creation, possible only to the genius of the author. Zeller, of Berlin, says Hegel could be translated into Greek, but never into English. No translation can ever bring out the fine psychological differences imbedded in the deposits of language; but what enthusiasm, sympathy, and earnest study can do toward rendering a clear translation, I have devoted to this work, - the fruit of my visit to Germany, and of the honor, as well as advantage, derived from personal acquaintance with its author.
