GOethe (1749‐1832)
The
single
most
canonical
figure
in
German
literature,
Goethe
has
many
claims
on
a
reader's
attention,
but
our
focus
will
be
on
his
pronouncements
bearing
on
the
idea
of
world
literature.
There
are
only
a
score
or
so
places
where
he
uses
the
term
world literature
directly,
but
there
are
numerous
other
instances
where
he
discusses
issues
that
bear
on
the
concept
or
that
address
it
through
some
other
phrasing.
Goethe's
main
remarks
on
the
subject
are
reproduced
below
in
chronological
order
(undated
remarks
are
grouped
at
the
end).
