'Harmonisch entgegengesetzt' - Zur Darstellung und Darstellbarkeit in Hölderlins Poetik um 1800

'Harmoniously opposed' is a fundamental phrase in Hölderlin's poetology. Until now, however, there has been no systematic study consistently following this central representational structure through Hölderlin's poetic and poetological writings. The present monograph attempts to remedy this deficiency by taking the fundamental structure of 'representation', which has been a determining factor in Western philosophy and literature since Classical Antiquity , and developing it anew with reference to Hölderlin and defining its far-reaching implications for poetry and poetology more precisely than has been the case in previous research.
