Goethe was a philosopher who observed changes in nature. He believed change happens gradually and uses a multiple process. He felt that step by step process was divine. Goethe also believed that through change each step was beneficial to the individual. He related a goodness of change in nature and the surrounding environment. I see the metamorphosis as Goethe’s theory that change is always a good thing because change is what makes us who we are today and what we have on our earth.
