The German Bildung and Goethe: Development, Education, Culture

The German Bildung and Goethe: Development, Education, Culture

64 min  •  12 lectures

A single 60-minute Genesis lecture for Evan Shaw inside the ongoing Goethe and Self-Independence arc. This episode functions as Lecture 10 in spirit, but it is planned as one coherent audio episode: a deep, continuous exploration of Bildung as the hinge between Goethe’s ideas of self-development, education, culture, refusal, and formed freedom. It should lean on the listener’s prior course context — Werther, Wilhelm Meister, the Italian Journey, the Daimon, Elective Affinities, and the Necessary No — while remaining intelligible as a standalone lecture.
