This is a short yet comprehensive biography of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832), German writer, scientist, and a major figure in the world of literature. We learn of his childhood and family background, his education and travels to Italy, his informal, and later formal, marriage to Christiane Vulpius, and the birth of his son August. In the final chapter the author presents a general view of Goethe’s work.
