From the Renaissance to Modernism: Goethe and German Poetry

By Jeremy Adler

This volume collects Jeremy Adler's keynote essays on poetry and experimental writing. Employing a distinctive philological method, he analyses Goethe's links to Renai-ssance poetics, German idealist philosophy, the natural sciences, and the fiction of Henry James. His detailed studies of H lderlin's theory of tragedy, and the innovations of August Stramm are also printed, as are a series of essays on the inter-art relations in the visual poetry of George Herbert, Sigmund von Birken, St phane Mallarm , and the paintings of Paul Klee.

Together with The Compass of Dignity: Persecution, Literature and Law, also available in this series, the volume collects the major essays of Jeremy Adler.
