For Goethe, nature plays a decisive role in human formation. The German poet has a monist worldview of reality, considering that there is no matter without spirit and spirit without matter, opposing, therefore, the mechanistic, fragmentary and manipulative vision expressed in the scientific vision of modernity. The unity between nature and spirit plays a nodal role in his theory, since he starts from the understanding of the world in a comprehensive and totalizing way. Because of this, interaction with nature cannot be ignored or understood as a manipulative action of the subject over it. Knowledge is born from the reciprocal interrelation between subject and nature, and the formation of the human being depends on the participatory procedure that involves the intense and sensitive interaction with it. To this end, the poet states that it is necessary to develop a creative and critical reflexivity about the developing experience. He considers that Urform, the basic form from which all things originate, belongs to nature, thus bringing an important and challenging contribution to a revision of the relationship between nature and human formation. The rescue of Goethe's understanding of nature implies in discussing the very concept of human being that is implicit in his studies and in his art.
