«Las grandes elegías (1800-1801)» is the German-Spanish bilingual poetry collection by Friedrich Hölderlin published by Hiperión in paperback (126 pages).
It brings together six elegies composed between 1800 and 1801, including «El Archipiélago», «Lamentaciones de Menón por Diotima» and «Pan y vino». These are works from Hölderlin's mature period, preceding the Poems of Madness, where one already perceives the search for a writing of silence and the tendency toward fragmentation.
Volume 29 of the «Poesía Hiperión» collection, with Spanish version and preliminary study by Jenaro Talens. Fourth edition, published in February 1998.
Recommended for poetry readers and for those who wish to read Hölderlin by confronting the German text with its Spanish translation.
Johann Christian Friedrich Hölderlin was a German poet and philosopher. Described by Norbert von Hellingrath as "the most German of Germans", Hölderlin was a key figure of German Romanticism. Particularly due to his early association with and philosophical influence on Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel and Friedrich Wilhelm Joseph Schelling, he was also an important thinker in the development of German Idealism.
