Ich bin ein deutscher Dichter, Bekannt im deutschen Land; Nennt man die besten Namen So wird auch der meine genannt. Und was mir fehlt, du Kleine, Fehlt manchem im deutschen Land; Nennt man die schlimmsten Schmerzen, So wird auch die meine genannt! I have never seen but one beautiful thing in New York, and that is its mighty river in the night-time.

"Willst du Dichter ganz verstehen, musst in Dichter's Lande gehen." If the reader's imagination is not active enough to assist the poet, he must at least not resist him. When we are once inside the poet's heaven, our critical faculty may justly require that what takes place there shall be consistent with itself, with the laws of that fantastic world.

We find another derogatory fling at Sterne himself and a regret at the extent of his influence in an anonymous book entitledBetrachtungen über die englischen Dichter,” published at the end of the great Yorick decade. The author compares Sterne most unfavorably with Addison: “If the humor of the Spectator and Tatler be set off against the digressive whimsicality of Sterne,” he says, “it is, as if one of the Graces stood beside a Bacchante. And yet the pampered taste of the present day takes more pleasure in a Yorick than in an Addison.” But a reviewer in the Allgemeine deutsche Bibliothek discounts this author’s criticisms of men of established fame, such as Shakespeare, Swift, Yorick, and suggests youth, or brief acquaintance with English literature, as occasion for his inadequate judgments. Indeed, Yorick disciples were quick to resent any shadow cast upon his name. Thus the remark in a letter printed in the Deutsches Museum that Asmus was the German Yorickonly a better moral character,” called forth a long article in the same periodical for September, 1779, by L.

We certainly do not go amongst the enemy, but are constantly mixing with our own kind, and with the masses." "Just a minute!" Paklin interrupted, in his turn. "Talking of enemies reminds me of Goethe's lines Wer den Dichter will versteh'n Muss im Dichter's lands geh'n. and I say Wer den Feinde will versteh'n Muss im Feinde's lands geh'n.

And Eichendorff in turn credited Goethe with the remark that "Loeben war der vorzüglichste Dichter jener Zeit." His influence on Platen is not quite so certain; Loeben was Platen's senior by ten years, and they resembled each other in their ability to employ difficult verse and strophe forms, and Platen read Loeben in 1824.

You make phrases about everything. That's a ridiculous thing to say. If every fickle woman " "Fickle woman! fickle fiddle-sticks!" he interrupted. "That's only a tag. The people whose business it is to decide these things DIE HERREN DICHTER are not agreed to this day whet it's man who's fickle or woman.

Wen da der Dichter hineingesperrt Den kann kein Gott mehr retten. And from the "singing flames" of Rodin there is no rescue. But he is not all tragedy and hell fire. Of singular delicacy, of exquisite proportions are his marbles of youth, of springtide, and the desire of life. In 1900, at his special exhibition, Paris, Europe, and America awoke to these haunting visions.

The Hebrew text of Moses ibn Ezra's poem cited with reference to the figure of love surviving the grave may be found in Kaempf's Zehn Makamen , p. 215. A German translation is given, I believe, in the same author's Nichtandalusische Poesie andalusischer Dichter. Many Hebrew love-poems, in German renderings, are quoted in Dr.

We have to take what comes to us Let us then be up and doing, With a heart for any fate. I'm glad I don't have to write poetry like that! June 8th. Howdy-do, Brother Bobolink! How in the world did you guess I was coming this way? Es ist nun einmal so. Kein Dichter reist incognito!
