Junto con Poes#a y verdad, Viaje a Italia es la otra gran obra autobiogr#fica de Goethe, en la que detalla uno de los per#odos m#s importantes de su vida: la estancia de un a#o y medio en Italia. Este viaje -la doble estad#a en Roma y el itinerario hasta Sicilia- propici# una serie de notas que, reelaboradas en este volumen, no se publicar#an hasta cuarenta a#os despu#s. En ellas Goethe describe con minuciosidad -y haciendo gala de un estilo sumamente l#rico- los lugares, gentes y costumbres de los pueblos y ciudades que recorri#, as# como los palacios, iglesias y otras obras arquitect#nicas o art#sticas. Esos ser#an, sin duda, los a#os m#s felices de su vida, y as# queda reflejado en las p#ginas de este libro, marcado por la pasi#n y la reflexi#n. "Este viaje maravilloso no responde al deseo de formarme falsas ideas sobre m# mismo sino al de conocerme mejor# Cuando llegu# aqu# no aspiraba a nada. Y ahora solo persigo que nada siga siendo para m# un mero nombre, una simple palabra. Quiero ver y descubrir con mis propios ojos todo aquello que se considera bello, grandioso y venerable#" Johann W. Goethe
