Ramon Coffman discusses how Goethe’s mother inspired him to seek joy and purpose. The piece notes Goethe began college in Leipzig at sixteen as his father urged a legal path, but the spark of creativity ultimately shaped his life.
The youth studied law at Strasbourg and Goethe pursued writing. He practiced law in his hometown but largely wrote poems and plays. A visiting duke invited him to Weimar where he became minister of state and later started Wilhelm Meister.
