Abstract

Stefan George (1868-1933) was one of the most important and influential poets to have written in German. His work, in its originality and impact, easily ranks with that of Goethe, Holderlin, or Rilke. Yet George's reach extended far beyond the sphere of literature. Particularly during his last three decades, George gathered around himself a group of men who subscribed to his homoerotic and idiosyncratic vision of life and sought to transform that vision into reality. George considered his circle to be the embodiment and defender of the "real" but "secret" Germany, opposed to the false values of contemporary bourgeois society. Some of his disciples, friends, and admirers were themselves historians, philosophers, and poets. Their works profoundly affected the intellectual and cultural attitudes of Germany's elite during the critical postwar years of the Weimar Republic. Essentially conservative in temperament and outlook, George and his circle occupy a central, but problematic, place in the rise of proto-fascism in Germany. Their own surrogate state offered a miniature model of a future German state: enthusiastic followers submitting themselves without question to the figure and will of a charismatic leader believed to be in possession of mysterious, even quasi-divine, powers.When he died several months after the Nazi takeover, George was one of the most famous and revered figures in Germany. Today the importance of George and his circle has largely been forgotten. In this, the first full biography of George to appear in any language, Robert E. Norton traces the poet's life and rise to fame.

Abstract

Die Moderne ist, literarisch gesehen, erst einmal ein Sprachprojekt. Und Lyrik gilt als Paradigma der Moderne: In Gedichttexten lösen sich die Fesseln der Tradition. - Friedrich Nietzsche ruft "Sprache als Kunst" aus, und Dichter der Moderne um 1900 folgen, jeweils auf ihre Weise, diesem Ruf. Arno Holz spricht von "Wortkunst", Stefan George insistiert auf seiner "literatur sprache", Rainer Maria Rilke setzt auf "Verwandlung in Worte" und Christian Morgenstern auf "Umwortung aller Worte". Die Studien arbeiten, vergleichend, die Sprachkonzepte der Dichter heraus und erschließen das je Eigene sowie das Gemeinsame auf dem Weg in die Moderne. Sie ruhen auf einer literarisch-linguistischen Interpretation, die im dicht gewebten lyrischen Text den sprachlichen Ausgriff der Poeten aufzeigt: "schon kaum / erklärbar mehr: vielleicht ein Pflaumenbaum, / von dem ein Kuckuck hastig abgeflogen."

Abstract

Examining the relationship between German poetry, philosophy, and visual media around 1900, Carsten Strathausen argues that the poetic works of Rainer Maria Rilke, Hugo von Hofmannsthal, and Stephan George focused on the visible gestalt of language as a means of competing aesthetically with the increasing popularity and ""reality effect"" of photography and film. Poetry around 1900 self-reflectively celebrated its own words as both transparent signs and material objects, Strathausen says. In Aestheticism, this means that language harbors the potential to literally present the things it
