The Look of Things: Poetry and Vision around 1900 - University of North Carolina Studies in Germanic Languages and Literature
Carsten Strathausen
Examining the relationship between German poetry, philosophy, and visual media around 1900, Carsten Strathausen argues that the poetic works of Rainer Maria Rilke, Hugo von Hofmannsthal, and Stephan George focused on the visible gestalt of language as a means of competing aesthetically with the increasing popularity and “reality effect” of photography and film.
