adam_text | This book explains the background and rationale of the German poet Johann
Wolfgang von Goethe’s notorious attack on Isaac Newton’s classic theory of
white light and colors. Though the merits of Goethe’s color science, as
advanced in his massive Zur Farbenlehre, have often been acknowledged, it
has been almost unanimously proclaimed invalid as physics. How could
Goethe have been so mistaken?
In his book, Dennis Sepper shows that the condemnation of Goethe’s
attacks on Newton has been based on erroneous assumptions about the
history of Newton’s theory and the methods and goals of Goethe’s color
science. By illuminating the historical background and the experimental,
methodological, and philosophical aspects of Goethe’s work, the author shows
that his color theory is in an important sense genuinely physical and that, as
simultaneously poet, scientist, historian, and philosopher, Goethe managed to
anticipate important twentieth-century research not only in the history and
philosophy of science, but even in color science itself.
