By G . H- LEWES . " A work which , beyond question , surpasses anything ; which even Germany has produced during the last five-andtwenty years Por the first time th « Life of our Poet is represented in its fulness with genial conception and loving enthusiasm , —his noble personality from every side depicted with clearness and truth . Goethe ' s Life has almost ; always in Germany been handled either by learned Professors or constructive Philosophers . In Lewes , on the contrary , we see a man who , to profound and comprehensive culture , adds that other culture which a rich aud varied inward and outward life alone pan bestow , and which brings him into congenial relationship with a poet like Goethe , so as to enable him to place before us a true and life-like picture of Goethe ' s personality It is a work-which will secure Lewes an enduring-name , not only in the literature of his nation , but also in that which Goethe called the World's Literature .
