by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Goethe's *Autobiography*, a two-volume work, offers an intimate and insightful chronicle of his life and experiences, spanning from his youth to his maturity.

This volume showcases Goethe's keen observations, reflecting upon various subjects like language, art, politics, and the complexities of human nature. Readers can gain a deeper understanding of the cultural and intellectual landscape of late 18th-century Germany through Goethe's personal lens.
