Lewes on Goethe: The Life of Goethe by G. Lewes - Richard Holmes; G. Lewes (Paperback) 0

Most people could easily name, even if they have not read, a score or more classic English novels. They are part of our common literary culture and consciousness. The same is not true of classic biographies. With this series, Richard Holmes, a leading biographer, aims to establish for the first time a central tradition of English biographical writing, showing just how important these overlooked works are. Each volume in the series casts a light on biography, on history, writing and the relationship between the biographer and subject.
