Goethe and Love

Goethe and Love

Goethe’s creative spirit is examined in connection with his attitude to love. The young Rudolf Steiner said of this book: “The honor of showing that love was not merely one attribute of Goethe’s being among many others, but rather the very foundation of his entire poetry and thought, that it was his religion, and that all his creations can only be correctly understood when considered from this point of view. This honor belongs to this book of Schröer’s.”
