What would it mean to make a work of art the focal point of one's
life practice? Poetry as a Way of Life goes back to the origins of
aesthetics as a philosophical discipline in the early eighteenth
century in order to uncover an understanding of the work of art as
an exercise of the self. Engaging in close readings of works by
both canonical and less well-known eighteenth-century German poets
such as Friedrich Holderlin, Novalis, Friedrich von Hagedorn, and
Johann Wilhelm Ludwig Gleim, Gabriel Trop illustrates the ways in
which these authors tap into the potential of poetic form to
redefine the limits of human perception and generate alternative
ways of being in the world.
