Description
Excerpt from The Auto-Biography of Goethe: Truth and Poetry, From My Own Life; Thirteen Books
If the revised translation is compared with that on which it is based, it will be found that scarcely a sentence has been left unchanged. The result is, perhaps, not as finished a piece of English as a new translation might have been, but it is hoped that at least an accurate rendering of the original has been given.
In making the revision I have received much assistance from my friend Miss A. R. Piggott.
