Goethe's concept of Weltliteratur ('world literature') made its
first appearance in his periodical AAoeber Kunst und AltertumA and
displays three dimensions: historical diagnosis, moral injunction,
a classicistic poetics of modernism. This book attempts to do
justice to the wide-ranging implications of the concept by
exploring two different avenues in the history of ideas. The first
part examines 18th century theoretical debates on cultural
difference and the formation of a global society (Montesquieu,
Rousseau, Adam Smith, Kant, Herder, Humboldt). The second traces
the evolution of Goethe's program for a 'world literature' from the
age of the French Revolution to the last decade of his life.
