[Goethe's personal testimony on his work with "organic creatures". II. Letters (1776-1817)]. 1979

H Voss

Once more following the Sophien-Ausgabe of Weimar, Author gives an extract from GOETHE's Letters to literati, scientists, and princes of his time, concerning notices on his employment about sciences without botany. The GOETHE's own words reflect his engagement better than any description from a second hand. Anatomists may take an especial interest in the letters No 1903 to HERDER and No 1904 to CHARLOTTE v. STEIN (both dated the March 27, 1784) which demonstrate the discoverer's mirth in finding out the human os intermaxillare.
