Publisher Description Two Studies of Friedrich Hoelderlin shows how the poet enacts a radical theory of meaning that culminates in a unique and still groundbreaking concept of revolution, one that begins with a revolutionary understanding of language. The product of an intense engagement with both Walter Benjamin and Jacques Derrida, the book presents Werner Hamachers major attempts at developing a critical practice commensurate with the immensity of Hoelderlins late writings. These essays offer an incisive and innovative combination of critical theory and deconstruction while also identifying where influential critics like Heidegger fail to do justice to the poets astonishing radicality. Readers will not only come away with a new appreciation of Hoelderlins poetic and political-theoretical achievements but will also discover the motivating force behind Hamachers own achievements as a literary scholar and political theorist.
