| Abstract | The first part of this essay examines biographical parallels between Goethe's, Moritz's, and Emerson's "self-invention as artists on their respective Italian journeys and highlights the centrality of Moritz's treatise on artistic production for the three poets. The second section puts Emerson's explications on criteria of original artistic creation in his lectures on 'Michel Angelo Bounaroti' and 'The Eye and Ear' in dialogue with Moritz's expositions of the same theme." |
