Fundamentals and ideological content of the creation of Y.V.Goeth's "West-east collection of poems "

Аннотация

In particular, Goeth's main idea in this artistic heritage was to brig together the cultures of all the peoples of the world and to open to they world literature. Before Goethe created the "West-east collection of poems" (or ―Mag‗ribu Mashriq devoni‖), he began to study the Qur'an, the holy book of Islam, which the Orient worships. At that time, the Qur'an was translated into German, as well as into Latin, English and French. Although the poet was still young, more precisely, twenty-four years old, he studied these translations by comparing them because he knew all the languages listed above.
