 Klopstock, Friedrich Gottlieb | wissen.de
Mit seinem lyrischen Werk (1771 gesammelt in den „Oden“ veröffentlicht) gelang Klopstock die Überwindung der rationalen, von der Regelpoetik bestimmten Aufklärungsliteratur, hin zu einer empfindsamen Erlebnisdichtung, die erhabene Themen wie Freundschaft, Liebe, Natur, Freiheit oder Tod behandelt.
Auf griechische und englische Vorbilder zurückgehend, bediente sich Klopstock zunächst antiker Versmaße, dann aber zunehmend freier Rhythmen, um einer enthusiastischen Weltsicht Ausdruck zu verleihen.
Mit seiner „Deutschen Gelehrtenrepublik“ 1774, einer zeitkritischen literarischen Utopie, konnte sich Klopstock bei seinen Zeitgenossen nicht durchsetzen.
