Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a compelling account of the history of German literary thought as seen through the prism of Goethe and Humboldt brothers' friendship. The author scrutinizes the primary tenets of classicism and romanticism and traces their lasting influence on Western literature. The approach taken here is both personal and scholarly, blending philosophical treatise with biography. The author makes the compelling case that German romanticism was the most profound and successful iteration of the tradition, and this book provides a comprehensive analysis of its development, from its origins to its reception and beyond. The author demonstrates how German thinkers grappled with emergent ideas of nationhood, individualism and the Enlightenment, and the ways in which they reshaped artistic culture in the process. Through the lens of Goethe and von Humboldt, this book provides a nuanced exploration of the enduring power of German romanticism and its seminal contribution to the history of ideas.
