This Festschrift marks the 50th anniversary of the Dallas Goethe
Center, a nonprofit educational and cultural arts organization,
dedicated to advancing German culture and language in North Texas.
Founded in 1965, the Dallas Goethe Center serves the community by
developing an appreciation and understanding of German art, drama,
music, language, literature, and history, and cultivates mutual
understanding between the people of German-speaking countries and
those of the United States of America. On the occasion of its 50th
anniversary, a symposium honoring Johann Wolfgang von Goethe was
organized and held on April 22, 2016, at the University of Dallas.
This Festschrift is the published proceedings of the symposium
along with a review of the Goethe Center's history and the
development of its mission from its founding to the present. The
concept of the Festschrift is focused on the persona of Goethe and
his modern-day relevance as a representative of German culture and
Bildung. The chapters included in this volume revolve around
Goethe's uniqueness as a thinker, scientist, and artist. This
volume seeks to draw attention to Goethe's role as cultural
representative by highlighting his double function as mediator
between both tradition and innovation by virtue of his intellectual
idiosyncrasy. It also seeks to contextualize the various scholarly
contributions as both examinations of Goethe's unique cultural and
intellectual formation as well as inquiries into the reception of
that formation as part of a modern understanding of the concept of
Bildung.
