Book Description: In the days when Wilhelm Meister was written, the Wanderjahr or year of travel was a recognised part of student life, and was held in high regard as contributing a valuable element to a complete education. 'The Europe of the Renaissance,' writes M. Wagner, 'was fairly furrowed in every direction by students, who often travelled afoot and barefoot to save their shoes.' These wayfarers were light hearted and often empty handed; they were in quest of knowledge, but the intensity of the search was tempered by gaiety and ease of mood. Under a mask of frivolity, however, youth often wears a serious face, and behind apparent aimlessness there is often a steady and final turning of the whole nature towards its goal.
