Within the Golden Age of Romanticism the philosopher, Wolfgang von Goethe, wrote that Isaac Newton had betrayed the science of colour to reduce all to a black and white mechanistic reality. Other principal figures of that Golden Age also attacked Newton for holding that the complete universe was a mechanical phenomenon. Little did they realise that Newton had published that those who ascribed to a completely mechanistic universe were pretentious and illogical. He had derived this opinion from the same lost ancient ethical science that had inspired the theories of the Romanticists. The Church of his day had threatened to punish him for declaring such a pagan heresy. He was unable to remove his 28th Query Discussions from his published research, which the Church later dismissed as the outpourings of a deranged mind effected by mercurial poisoning from his alchemical experiments. However, recent DNA discoveries demonstrate that his great genius had not been depleted as argued by his religious adversaries. Goethe was wrong as Newton's complete definition of the universe was compatible with Goethe's linguistic colour perception theories of universal reality.
