In 1861 Friedrich Nietzsche, who died insane, wrote an enthusiastic essay on his "favourite poet", Hölderlin, who became six years after Nietzsche's essay widely recognized as Germany's greatest poet after Goethe.
In his use of classical verse forms and syntax, Hölderlin was follower of Friedrich Klopstock (1724-1803), who attempted to develop for the German language a classical perfection of its own that would place it on a par with Greek and Latin.
Note: Goethe's house in the Duchy of Weimar attracted writers: Friedrich Hölderlin was received well but the dramatist and storywriter Heinrich von Kleist (1777-1843) never recovered from the depression resulting from his rejection by Goethe.

Hoelderlin's verse represents both the culmination of the German classical tradition, with its thematic and formal indebtedness to the literature of antiquity, and the highest expression of the German Romantic glorification of the poet, combining veneration of nature with the development of a national poetic ideal.
Hoelderlin attempted to establish himself in the literary world by founding a journal called *Iduna*, which would contain both original literary works and critical and historical essays; although he solicited the support of several literary figures, including Schiller, Schelling, and Goethe, the response was negligible.
It is characteristic of Hoelderlin's odes of the Homburg period to conclude with an affirmation of poetry.

And then Friedrich came (I mean Schlegel) and, putting his theories forth, introduced yet more confusion in the midst of a whole generation, including your own late wife (if you'll excuse me for bringing up old memories).
Friedrich Klopstock was still appreciated, though not so much for his Odes as for being a man of La Nation.

Johann Christian Friedrich Hölderlin (March 20, 1770 - June 6, 1843) was a major German lyric poet.

For Hölderlin, the Greek gods were not the plaster figures of conventional classicism, but living, actual presences, wonderfully life-giving and, at the same time, terrifying.

Demonstrating the renewed critical interest in Friedrich Hölderlin (1770-1843), the essays in this book both map the present-day nexus of philosophy and literature (for which Hölderlin is a historical exemplar) and reveal shifting allegiances among a group of critics at the cutting edge of contemporary theory.
Addressed not only to specialists in German studies but also to readers interested in modern poetry, comparative literature, literary theory, and philosophy, the essays aim to establish the relevance of Hölderlin for thinking about history, culture, and language today.
The volume concludes with a select bibliography of Hölderlin in English that lists all book-length translations of his literary writings, the more significant translations of his theoretical texts and letters, and most critical studies available in English devoted in part or whole to Hölderlin.

Friedrich Hölderlin (1770-1843) was a poet very far ahead of his time.
His contemporaries failed to appreciate his profound, avidly Hellenistic poems and probably viewed the poet's early decline into insanity, in 1802, as a confirmation of their evaluation.
A particularly artful English translation of this poem, which maintains the ancient Greek meter (Alcaic) in which Hölderlin cast his German lines, is available in Friedrich Hölderlin, Poems and Fragments, Translated by Michael Hamburger, published by The University of Michigan Press, in 1967.

Michael Hofmann places Friedrich Hölderlin among the immortals
Some people have the capacity to read exotic or old works of literature - pre 19th century, let's say - without, so to speak, night vision, or 3-D specs; without something to convert or adapt or enact what something means, how it feels, what it did; because they know it already, intuitively, themselves.
The German poet Friedrich Hölderlin (1770-1843) unquestionably belongs in the intense company of Shelley, Kleist, Novalis, Lenz and Büchner - even though (it was his misfortune) his life was twice as long as any of theirs.
