This book analyzes and explores the role and influence of classical antiquity on the mind and work of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Germany's most celebrated writer. The author examines Goethe's early fascination with Greek culture, and how it followed him through decades of profound creative output into old age.

The book immerses the reader in Goethe's world, showing how he drew on ancient models and themes to create some of his greatest works, including masterpieces such as "Faust," "Wilhelm Meister's Apprenticeship," and "Iphigenia in Tauris."
