Survey of reception of German poet Hoelderlin in French criticism
and literature, with particular attention to Heidegger and his
followers. The Poet as Thinker is the first historical survey of
the reception of the work of the German poet Hoelderlin (1770-1840)
in French criticism and literature. After a brief description of
the fate of the poet's work in Germany, from the neglect of the
nineteenth century to his rediscovery at the beginning of the
twentieth, Professor Lernout deals with the French translations of
Hoelderlin's poetry and the importance of his writings in French
philosophy. He analyses the readings by Martin Heidegger, then goes
on to examine the critics whom Heidegger influenced including Beda
Allemann; Philippe Lacoue-Labarthe and Jean-Luc Nancy, who have
made Hoelderlin one of the central figuresin the history of
metaphysics; and Georg Lukacs. Other chapters consider various
psychoanalytical theories of Hoelderlin's illness, most of them in
the wake of Lacan's interpretation of Freud; Derrida and Foucault
are among the critics treated. Finally, the connections between
Hoelderlin and such prominent twentieth-century French writers as
Camus, Aragon, Pleynet, and Delmas are discussed.
