Description
The Meridian: Final Version―Drafts―Materials is a landmark work by Paul Celan, presented as a speech to the German Academy for Language and Poetry. This collection offers a rigorous attempt to account for what poetry can be after the Holocaust, making it one of the most important poetological statements of the second half of the twentieth century. The Meridian includes not only the final version but also extensive drafts, notes, and preparatory work, providing a comprehensive understanding of Celan's manifesto. The edition is supplemented by commentaries on Celan's notes to various authors, including Leibniz, Scheler, Kafka, and others. This richly annotated edition expands our knowledge of Celan's ideas and reveals the full scope of his work. For readers interested in modernist poetry, philosophy, or the intersection of art and politics, this collection is a valuable resource.
