Color theory

Author's name: Johann Goethe Publisher: Al-Rafidain for Publishing and Distribution Year of publication: 2023 Literary classification: Philosophy and Thought Summary of the book: Goethe launched in this unique work from his personal background as an artist and writer who deals with sensory data as aesthetic elements, not purely material appearances, to address and discuss Newton's conception which encouraged the emergence of an eliminative physical climate, trying to deconstruct perceived phenomena instead of dealing with them as an integrated entity, and depriving the impressionistic and sensory side of any scientific value even in the world of physiology. The writers who addressed Goethe's color theory had limited their observations to those parts in which he explained the colors of the spectrum of the prism as well as reflection colors based on principles different from Newton's traditional theory. As for the features that have not received much discussion in this research, and which are characterized by a coherent structure of observations and experiments, many of which are important and remarkable, they have been largely neglected until now. Therefore, it was more appropriate to present the entire work without any modification, because some scientific readers might be driven by curiosity to listen to the author himself revealing his opinion on the less prominent points more than their eagerness to read what has previously reached their ears.
