Edition und Interpretation moderner Lyrik seit Hölderlin

The contributions in this volume explore the poetic works of Friedrich Hölderlin, Stefan George, Rudolf Borchardt, Rainer Maria Rilke, Georg Trakl, Gottfried Benn, Bertolt Brecht, Paul Celan and Ernst Jandl and the various text editions of their works. Different aspects of how to edit modern poetry are discussed, and new criteria are established for historical-critical editions as well as for student editions. The book asks what kind of reader each text edition addresses and how different ways of editing influence the interpretation of modern poetry.
