Publisher's Synopsis

Goethe: A New Pantomime (1850) is a book written by Edward Vaughan H. Kenealy, which offers a unique interpretation of the life and works of the famous German writer Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. The book is written in the form of a pantomime, which is a type of theatrical performance that combines dance, music, and comedy to tell a story without words. Kenealy's pantomime is divided into several acts, each of which explores a different aspect of Goethe's life and career. The first act focuses on Goethe's childhood and early years, while the second act delves into his literary works, including his famous novel Faust. The third act explores Goethe's personal relationships, including his love affairs and friendships, while the fourth act examines his philosophical and scientific ideas.Throughout the pantomime, Kenealy uses a variety of visual and musical cues to convey the emotions and themes of Goethe's life and works. The book is illustrated with several black and white drawings, which depict scenes from the pantomime and help to bring the story to life.Overall, Goethe: A New Pantomime (1850) is a unique and imaginative interpretation of the life and works of one of the most important writers in German history. Kenealy's use of the pantomime format adds a new dimension to the story, making it accessible and engaging for readers of all ages and backgrounds.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
