"Bluthenstaub" - Rezeption Und Wirkung Des Werkes Von Novalis (German, Hardcover, Reprint 2010 ed.)

ABlA1/4thenstaubA, the title of the famous collection of fragments by Novalis, stands here for the entire oeuvre of the Romantic German poet Friedrich von Hardenberg (1772-1801). The volume documents the second congress of the International Novalis Society, which was devoted to the reception and impact of Novalis' work not only on literary posterity but also on the other arts. The main focus is on the reception accorded to Novalis in German Romanticism, in other countries (Britain, USA, Italy, Poland, Russia), and in modern literature, supplemented by studies of musical settings of his work and his reception in Catholicism, anthroposophic thinking, etc. The 200-year history of his impact, traced here in its full implications for the first time, shows that to an impressive and hitherto unknown extent, Novalis' works have been the object of a wide range of productive acquisition and critical engagement both within German-speaking countries and abroad.
