Dichtung und Wahrheit
Aus meinem Leben: Dichtung und Wahrheit ("Out of my Life: Poetry and Truth") (1811-1833) (note: the German word "Dichtung" also means "fiction" in English, which indicates through an ingenious ambiguity a humourous notion that perhaps not all aspects are unfolded truthfully therein), is a story related in part to Goethe's life, outlining his happy childhood, his relationship with his sister Cornelia, and an infatuation with a barmaid named Gretchen; it also partly expounds the changes in his thinking that were brought about by the Seven Years' War and the French occupation while other experiences throughout are presented and coloured.
