Wilder, Thornton. Goethe and world literature. (1949). In : Wilder, Thornton. American characteristics and other essays [ID D30361]. On this Wednesday Goethe was talking about a Chinese novel he had been reading… [Goethe] :The epoch of world literature is at hand and everyone must now get to work to hasten the advent of that epoch. However, while extending this high appreciation to foreign works we should not bind ourselves to any particular one and regard it as the final model – whether it be the Chinese or the Serbian or Calderón or the Niebelungenlied… The Cantos of Ezra Pound require our familiarity with the civilizations which Frobenius claims to have distinguished in African pre-history, as well as a close knowledge of Chinese history, the Italian Renaissance, and the economic problems of the American Revolution. |
