Goethe As A Scientist by Rudolf Magnus is a comprehensive exploration of the scientific pursuits of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, the renowned German writer, poet, and philosopher. Magnus delves into Goethe's scientific works, including his studies in botany, optics, and geology, and highlights the ways in which his scientific inquiries influenced his literary and philosophical writings. The book also examines Goethe's contributions to the development of the natural sciences, particularly his rejection of the mechanistic worldview of his contemporaries in favor of a holistic approach that emphasized the interconnectedness of all phenomena. Magnus provides a detailed analysis of Goethe's scientific theories and experiments, as well as his interactions with other notable scientists of his time. Overall, Goethe As A Scientist offers a fascinating glimpse into the multidimensional mind of one of the greatest thinkers of the 18th and 19th centuries.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1906 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
