The Fairy Tale of the Green Snake and the Beautiful Lily
Autor Johann Wolfgang von Goethe Ilustrat de David Newbatt Traducere de Thomas Carlyleen Limba Engleză Hardback – 10 sep 2007
The tale tells of magical transformation--one that, when the time is at hand, can be experienced by anyone. The author of these stories was Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, and the creation of his fairy tale would have far-reaching consequences.
This edition of Goethe's fairy tale arose from illustrator David Newbatt's inspiration to join Thomas Carlyle's English translation with a new series of pictures. The purpose is to reveal the sevenfold process that unfolds within Goethe's fairy tale--a process that forms a path of inner development and personal transformation.
In addition to the translation by Thomas Carlyle and the series of seven pictures by David Newbatt, The Green Snake and the Beautiful Lily includes an introduction by Tom Raines.

Notă biografică
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832) is a giant of German and world literature. Indeed, he coined the term Weltliteratur and spoke Greek, Latin, French, English, and Italian. In addition to its profound quality, the volume of work during his eighty-two-year lifetime is impressive. Among other works, Goethe wrote a worldwide, bestselling novel, The Sorrows of Young Werther (Die Leiden des Jungen Werthers, 1774), volumes of poetry, and several dramas, including his masterwork Faust-- a massive two-volume work that was not entirely finished by the time of the poet's death. Goethe also engaged in painting and science, from which came his Theory of Color ("Farbenlehre") among other scientific works--a collected edition that Rudolf Steiner edited and introduced as a young man (see Nature's Open Secret). Indeed, Goethe's body of scientific and philosophical works was one of the most important influences in the development of Rudolf Steiner's early work and for Anthroposophy as a whole.
