Book Description

January 1999 World Classic Literature Series
Die Serie "Meisterwerke der Literatur" beinhaltet die Klassiker der deutschen und weltweiten Literatur in einer einzigartigen Sammlung für Ihren eBook Reader. Lesen Sie die besten Werke großer Schriftsteller,Poeten, Autoren und Philosophen auf Ihrem Kindle Reader. Digital überarbeitet und in allerbester Qualität und bei den allermeisten Titeln inklusive eines interaktiven Inhaltsverzeichnisses für einfache Orientierung.

Hyperion erschien in zwei Bänden 1797 und 1799. Es ist ein lyrischer Briefroman, dessen äußere Handlung gegenüber den inneren Erfahrungen nur untergeordnete Bedeutung hat und dessen strömender Gefühlsreichtum in sprachliche Klangfülle gebannt ist. Der Roman ist ein Selbstbekenntnis, das trotz mancher jugendlich-schwärmerischen Züge Hölderlins Lebensschau und Seelentum vergegenwärtigt. Die Natur, die in den Schlussbriefen hymnisch gefeiert wird, wird verehrt als der gotterfüllte Raum. In der Schilderung Griechenlands durchdringen sich Vergangenheit und Zukunft, Traum und Verheißung.

5.0 out of 5 stars A book for the mankind., August 31, 2001
By 
Vladimir (Valencia, Spain) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hyperion (World Classic Literature Series) : German language version (Paperback)
Hölderlin's Hyperion is a book for the memory of the mankind. It deals with love and with changing the world too. This great German masterpiece is just poetry in prose. The love scenes of Hyperion and Diotima are maybe the best and beautiful ever written about love, and the drammatic dimension of the piece is so intense, that one always reads it with strong excitement. I have read "Hyperion" several times and it has become my personal bible. Poetry and elation for changing the world. The drama of it.
This version is in the original German. If you are an English reader just look for an english translation. In any case you will be delighted or maybe your life will change as that of mine when I read it for the first time. If the latter applies then you will have soon the necessity of reading it in German (learning German for doing it). I tell you by experience.
