Loading... The Poet's Self and the Poem: Essays on Goethe, Nietzsche, Rilke and Thomas Mann (Lord Northcliffe Lectures in Literature)by Erich Heller
None No current Talk conversations about this book. No reviews no reviews | add a review
In this published version of the Lord Northcliffe Lectures in Literature, delivered at University College London in Spring 1975, Professor Heller is concerned with the imaginative mediation between life and art which is a major theme in the work of the four writers he discusses. The profound process by which a great work of literary art ('poem' in the title is used in a sense close to the German 'Dichtung') may grow out of a situation in life, mirror, and yet transcend it is illustrated by Goethe in Marienbad, Nietzsche in the 'Waste Land', Rilke in Paris and Thomas Mann in Venice.
