Happy Sunday folks and welcome to another Sunday Sum-Up!
This week was quite a relaxing one. Since I had more free time on my hands, I took the time to get ahead of my blogging schedule and to enroll myself in a new online course on edX. And that was how I was introduced to Johann Wolfgang von Goethe while going through a course on world literature!
Goethe is pretty much a really cool dude who got himself into an administrative job in a little place called Weimer and spent his time pursuing all his interests, from literary and artistic ones to scientific interests. He was interested in literature from cultures like China, and unwittingly coined the phrase ‘world literature’. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg with this dude! I got so interested in this guy that I am considering even writing a separate ramble-y blog post based on him.
Anyways, my recent obsessions aside, here are some of the posts I loved reading this week! Hope you find something that speaks to you! Make sure you show your favourite creators some love!
