Paperback. Condición: Good. A groundbreaking text on colour theory, Goethe's seminal work challenges Newtonian theories to explore the human experience and subjective nature of colour. First published in 1810 as Zur Farbenlehre, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's classic work took a pioneering approach to colour science, exploring the interplay of light and shadow, the emotional effects of colours and their dynamic relationships. Thoroughly detailed and highly illustrated, The Theory of Colour laid the foundation for modern understanding, with Goethe producing the universal colour wheel that is still referenced today. Its contents include: Effects of Light and Darkness on the Eye Dazzling Colourless Objects Conditions of the Appearance of Colour Achromatism and Hyperchromatism Augmentation of Colour Physical and Chemical Effects of the Transmission of Light through Coloured Mediums Relation to Natural History Allegorical, Symbolical, Mystical Application of Colour Though initially controversial, Goethe's insights have profoundly impacted art and science, influencing figures like Wassily Kandinsky and the Bauhaus School. This facsimile edition faithfully reproduces Goethe's original text and illustrations. The Theory of Colours remains essential for anyone interested in the intersection of art, science, and the multifaceted world of colour.…

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, although best known for his literary work, was also a keen and outspoken natural scientist. In the second polemic part of Zur Farbenlehre (Theory of Colours), for example, Goethe attacked Isaac Newton's ground-breaking revelation that light is heterogeneous and not immutable, as was previously thought.This polemic was unanimously rejected by the physicists of the day, and has often been omitted from compendia of Goethe's works. Indeed, although Goethe repeated all of Newton's key experiments, he was never able to achieve the same results. Many reasons have been proposed for this, ranging from the psychological - such as a blind hatred of Newtonism, self-deceit and paranoid psychosis - to accusations of incapability - Goethe simply did not understand the experiments. Yet Goethe was never to be dissuaded from this passionate conviction.This translation of Goethe's polemic, published for the first time in English, makes it clear that Goethe did understand the thrust of Newton's logic. It demonstrates that Goethe's resistance to Newton's theory stemmed from something quite different; his pantheism - the belief in the spiritual nature of light. This prevented him from allowing himself to think of light in physical terms and accepting that it is anything other than simple, immutable, and unknowable.This important new translation will be useful to natural scientists, historians, philosophers and theologians alike and will delight anyone hoping to add a further layer of nuance to Goethe's complex portrait. Originally published in German in 1810 as: Zur Farbenlehre. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
