Description
The Fairy Tale of the Green Snake and the Beautiful Lily, written by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe, is a thought-provoking fantasy that explores the connection between the human soul and the world of the senses. In this tale, the ideal world of the suprasensory is separated from the sensory realm by a river, and the goal is to build a bridge across the river to establish a new, conscious spiritual awareness.
The story features a range of characters, each representing various aspects of the soul working together to accomplish this task. Through their collective efforts, the characters strive to build a bridge that will unite the sensory and suprasensory realms. This ambitious project requires the collaboration of the Ferryman, the Old Woman, the Youth, the Will-o'-Wisps, and the Old Man with the Lamp.
Published in 1991, this edition of The Fairy Tale of the Green Snake and the Beautiful Lily is a valuable addition to any collection of literary works. With its unique blend of philosophy and fantasy, this book offers a thought-provoking exploration of the human experience.
