Where would you start with Goethe and how would you continue? I am interested in both his literary and his non-literary works! Does someone by any chance have one of those beautiful Veeky Forums charts on him?
Goethe - Where to Start?

Auden translated The Italian Journey (available via Penguin) and his edition includes a fine biographical essay. I'd start there. Then I'd read the first Wilhelm Meister in either the Princeton edition or Carlyle's translation. Goethe's quality is consistent. Don't bother with any of the lyric poetry unless youre learning German or a speaker.
