Excerpt from Goethe, His Life and Works: An Essay
To the English-speaking public Goethe is the great German Poet who wrote Werther and Faust, - a large, nebulous, remote figure. A smaller circle can call over the catalogue of his principal creative works, prose-fictions as well as poems, and knows that he has a name in Science; and that, surviving to be over fourscore, he lived his latter days in high state at Weimar, the acknowledged primate of all German literary dioceses, a sage as well as poet.
