This is a librivox volunteer reading an article by Thomas Henry Huxley (1825-1895) that was published in the first issue of a new magazine called Nature. Huxley recalls Goethe's Aphorisms on Nature that Johann Goethe (1749-1832) may or may not have remembered writing. Both Goethe and Huxley claim to have been "self taught".  

Here is a link to the first issue of Nature Magazine (1869-1870).
