" Goethe's heart , which few knew , was as great as his intellect , which all knew . "—Jung Stilling . " Written with intense love and profound knowledge of the subject , it throws more light on the character and genius of Goethe than any other work . Finally , it is a perfect mine of admirable impartial criticism , written in a pure English style , and , in short , a life of Goethe worthy of the man . "—Daily Netos . . " Mr . Lewes has written a work of art , and not thrown before the public a quarry of raw material . . . . A thorough study of his subject , a careful preparation extended through many years , and trained skill in authorship , have enabled Mr . Lewes to convey a lively representation of the man Goethe as he lived , of the society of which he was the centre , or the general characteristics of the time ; and , to blend with all this , ample analytical criticism on his principal writings , and intelligent discussion of the principles on which poetry and prose fiction should be composed . . . . Goethe is shown to have possessed one of the noblest and sweetest natures ever given to erring man , and to have lived as ever in . the eyes of the great Taskmaster , who had given him his talents , and was by that gift calling him to discharge great duties .
