"Stefan George (1868-1933) is, along with Hugo von Hofmannsthal and Rainer Maria Rilke, one of the pre-eminent German poets of the twentieth century. He also had an important, albeit controversial and provocative, role in German cultural history. It is generally agreed that he played a significant part in the transition of German literature to Modernism, particularly in poetry." "The wide-ranging and original essays in this volume explore anew George's poetry and his contribution to Modernism, the relation between his vision of a New Reich and fascist ideology, and his importance as a cultural critic."--Jacket
