The biography of the writer Goethe

He called his work "fragments of a huge confession." His autobiographical works, in the that is the truth Dichtung und Wahrheit, telling the story of the poet’s childhood and youth right up to; Journey to Italy Italienische Reise, a report on a trip to Italy in -; French Die Campagne in Frankreich and the siege of Mainz in Die Belagerung von Mainz, as well as Annalen and Tag-und Jahresheft, covering the period from DO, were all published in solid confidence that it was impossible to evaluate poetry, not understanding its author before.

Goethe was born on August 28 in Frankfurt.

Nortovich, ”he wrote in one of the late poems. Goethe's first poetic experiments are eight years old. Not too strict home schooling under the supervision of his father, and then three years of student freemen at the University of Leipzig left him enough time to satisfy the craving for reading and trying all the genres and styles of the Enlightenment, so by the age of 19, when a serious illness forced him to interrupt his studies, he had already mastered the techniques of versioning and dramaturgy and was the author of a rather significant number of works, Most of which were subsequently destroyed.

Annett’s poetic collection Das Buch Annette, dedicated to Anna Schönkopf, the daughter of the owner of the Leipzig tavern, where Goethe usually had lunch, and the pastoral comedy of the capriches of Die Laune des Verliebten, in Strasbourg, and Geta completed a legal education, was specially preserved. And in the next four years in Frankfurt, he was the leader of a literary rebellion against the principles established by I.

Gothsed - and theorists of education. In Strasbourg, Goethe met with I. Gerder - the leading critic and ideologist of the “Storm and onslaught” movement, crowded with plans for the creation of great and original literature in Germany. Persia and folk poetry of all nations opened new horizons in front of a young poet, whose talent had just begun to open. Goethe shared Herder's conviction that true poetry should go from the heart and be the fruit of the poet’s life experience, and not to rewrite the long -standing samples.

This conviction has become his main creative principle for life. During this period, the passionate happiness, which was filled with love for Frederick Brion, the daughter of the Zesenheim pastor, was embodied in the vivid imagery and sincere tenderness of such verses as the date and separation of Willkommen und Abschied, the May song Mailved and with the Mit Einem Bemalten ribbon.

Band; The reproaches of conscience after parting with her were reflected in the scenes of abandonment and loneliness in Faust, Göz, the keyboard and in a number of poems. Werther's sentimental passion for Lotta and his tragic dilemma: love for a girl already engaged to another - part of Goethe’s own life experience. Poems to Lily Schieneman, a young beauty from the Frankfurt society, tell the story of his fleeting hobby.

Eleven years old at the Weimar court - where he was a friend and adviser to the young Duke Carl Augustus, radically changed the poet’s life. Goethe was in the very center of the court society - a tireless inventor and organizer of balls, masquerades, draws, amateur performances, hunting and picnics, a trustee of parks, architectural monuments and museums. He became a member of the Duchy of Privy Council, and later - the state minister; He was in charge of laying roads, a set of recruits, public finances, public work, mining projects, etc.

But most of all benefits brought him prolonged daily communication with Charlotte von Stein. Emotionality and revolutionary iconocraticism of the “storm and onslaught” period have gone into the past; Now Goethe’s ideals in life and art are restraint and self -control, balance, harmony and classical perfection of form. Instead of great geniuses, quite ordinary people become his heroes.

The free stanzas of his poems are calm and serene in content and rhythm, but little by little the form becomes tougher, in particular, Goethe prefers octaves and elegic double-playing the great “troika”-Catulla, Tibullah and Property. The numerous official duties of Goethe seriously prevented the completion of the major works he had begun - Wilhelm Meister Wilhelm Meister, Egmont, Iphigenia iPhigenie and Tasso Tasso.

Having taken a one and a half year leave, he goes to Italy, is in modeling there, makes more than a thousand landscape sketches, reads ancient poets and the history of the ancient art of I. Winkelmann - upon returning to Weimar Goethe, he did not immediately move on to his "saddle" lifestyle. Over the next six years, he took a second trip to Venice, accompanied the Weimar Duke on his trip to Breslau Wroclaw, and participated in a military campaign against Napoleon.

In June, he established friendly relations with F. Schiller, who asked for help in the publication of the new magazine Ora, and after that he lived mainly in Weimar. Daily communication of poets, discussion of plans, joint work on such intentions as satirical Xenien Xenien, and ballads, were a wonderful creative stimulus for Goethe. The works lying in his table were published, in the years he finished the years of the teachings of Wilhelm Meister Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre, - continued to work on Faust and wrote a number of new works, when Schiller died, the thrones and the empire shuddered - Napoleon redrawn Europe.

During this period, he wrote sonnets to Minna Hertzlib, Roman Selective affinity Die Wahlverwandtschaft, and autobiography. Zuleika of this cycle, Marianne von Villemer, was a poetess herself, and her poems organically entered the sofa. Proverbs, deep observations and wise thoughts about human life, morality, nature, art, poetry, science and religion are illuminated by the verses of the Western-East sofa.

Orhisch, as well as in conversations with I. Ekkerman, published in the last decade of the poet’s life, when he finished Wilhelm Meister and Faust. Goethe died in Weimar on March 22 the author’s books:.
