Sinopsis

Goethe?s Vorahnungen kommender naturwissenschaftlicher Ideen is a book written by Hermann von Helmholtz in 1892. The book is a collection of essays that explore the scientific ideas and discoveries of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, a German writer, poet, and natural scientist. Von Helmholtz?s essays examine Goethe?s insights and intuitions about the natural world, particularly in the fields of botany, morphology, and optics. He discusses Goethe?s theories about the metamorphosis of plants, the interrelationship between structure and function in organisms, and the nature of color perception. Throughout the book, von Helmholtz highlights Goethe?s unique approach to science, which emphasized observation, intuition, and holistic thinking over the reductionist and experimental methods of his contemporaries. He argues that Goethe?s ideas were ahead of their time and foreshadowed many of the major scientific discoveries of the 19th and 20th centuries. Goethe?s Vorahnungen kommender naturwissenschaftlicher Ideen is a fascinating exploration of the intersection between literature and science, and a tribute to one of the most innovative and visionary thinkers of the Romantic era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
