Paperblanks Embellished Goethe Manuscript Wrap Journal (7 x 9)
A true renaissance man, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (born in 1749) is considered one of the greatest poets, writers and dramatists in German literature. In addition to his literary talents, he was also an eminent natural philosopher. In 1786, he left for a two-year Italian journey during which he kept a now famous journal, a page of which is reproduced for the cover of this diary.
The cover of this sturdy hard cover, thread-bound journal has been gold foiled, embossed and embellished until it's something very unique indeed, leaving the wonderful worn feel shown. The interior is filled with one of the finest papers for writing. Each sheet is 60 pound weight, with an extremely high opacity rating for minimal show-through. Hold a page up to the light, and you'll see the laid patterning. It takes pen and ink beautifully.

More about Goethe Manuscript Wrap Journal
Goethe's astute sense of observation allowed him to capture in his writing the multi-faced complexity of human behavior. In masterpieces like The Sorrows of Young Werther he created the prototype of the Romantic hero, and in Faust, arguably Germany's greatest contribution to world literature, he created a harrowing portrait of a man's pact with the devil. The legacy of Goethe's immense life works (he initially studied law, served as adviser to the Duke Karl August in Weimar and was also director of the Duke's famous Weimarer Theater) and his expression of new ideas continue to resonate to this day.
