| Summary |
"Schattenspiel um Goethe" by Ludwig Sternaux is a literary work likely written in the early 20th century. This book delves into the life and times of the renowned German poet Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, exploring his interactions within the literary and social circles of his era, particularly in Weimar. The narrative appears to be rich with historical context, incorporating both biographical elements and the emotional landscapes of Goethe's relationships with significant figures in his life. The opening of the text paints a vibrant scene of Weimar, filled with sunlight and freshness, as it describes the city's streets post-rain. It invites readers to wander through the historical and emotional layers of the past, mentioning Goethe’s home and other significant landmarks like the Wittumspalais, linked to the life of Anna Amalia, Duchess of Saxe-Weimar. The passage hints at various relationships and events involving Goethe, including elements of his friendships and literary engagements, providing a backdrop into the lives of contemporaries such as Schiller and the societal framework that influenced their works. This evocative introduction sets the stage for a deeper exploration of both Goethe’s life and the cultural epoch he inhabited. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
