Rainbows, Halos, Dawn, and Dusk explores the captivating colors that appear in
the atmosphere of the Earth—coronas, glories, halos, rainbows, dawn, and dusk. It
invites readers to observe these ephemeral appearances with fresh attention and
understanding. Moreover, it introduces us to little-known key experiences in Goethe’s
life that were intimately related to his scientific pursuits and his deep experience of color.
Following the holistic phenomenological method developed by Goethe in his "Theory of Colors,"
this book bridges the broad gap between human experience and the conventional physics of
atmospheric colors. The unfolding descriptions here assume an artistic quality through
which our experience of color phenomena is deepened, while at the same time our scientific
understanding is enhanced.
This book should prove helpful to scientists looking for a new approach to optics or an
introduction to Goethe’s phenomenological science, to teachers looking for new ways to
present optics lessons, and to anyone who loves the colors of nature and wishes to
deepen their relationship to them.
