Goethe, pronounced gur-tah or go-tay was an interesting topic to talk about. He is a philosopher, and the figure of enlightenment. He was from Germany and according to George Eliot, "he was the greatest man of letters." Along with Goethe we also learned about Gemeinschaft and Geseillschaft, where Gemeinschaft is community, clans, tribes, and status is given and you are born into it. This is also known as ascribed status. Geseillschaft is much different than this.
Goethe was one of the most important figures in German writing which is shown through his work. This blog that I am going to post is very interesting and I had never learned this about Goethe before. He actually has an institute under his name.
