Features: "Reading a million books makes writing as effortless as having a divine touch." We believe that through reading this series of authoritative, well-curated, and practical books, it will not only help primary and secondary school students with their in-class and extracurricular learning and exams but also enhance their scientific and humanities literacy, laying a solid foundation for the comprehensive improvement of their Chinese literacy and lifelong development. This book is a conversational, work arranged in chronological order, recording Goethe's mature thoughts and practical experiences in his later years in the form of dialogue. It covers philosophy, aesthetics, literary theory, creative practice, natural sciences, as well as daily life and attitudes toward life. Among these, his profound insights into art are particularly praised. Goethe was deeply influenced by British empiricism and French Enlightenment thought, as well as by German classical philosophers such as Kant and Hegel.
