Among the finest poets of ancient Greece was Hesiod, a contemporary of Homer, who lived in the eighth century B.C. It is still a matter of dispute whether Homer or Hesiod was the earlier poet, and sometimes whether they were one and the same person! At any rate, Hesiod's incredible poetry serves as a major source for our understanding of Greek mythology, farming practices, time keeping and astronomy. In and of itself, the "Works and Days" is unparalleled in its richness and beauty, easily rivaling Homer.

Eine Sammlung der schönsten Liebesgedichte Rainer Maria Rilkes: Der Dichter, der für seine empfindsamen Naturgedichte bekannt ist, öffnet hier sein Herz und gewährt Einblicke in sein Innenleben, das durch die oft wechselnden Liebesverhältnisse und das immer wieder aufs Neue Verliebtsein geprägt wurde. Christian Redls Interpretation gibt Rilkes melodiöser Sprache und der Klangfülle seiner Gedichte noch eine weitere Dimension.

Nearly three thousand years after they were composed, The Iliad and The Odyssey remain two of the most celebrated and widely read stories ever told, yet next to nothing is known about their author. He was certainly an accomplished Greek bard, and he probably lived in the late eighth and early seventh centuries BCE Authorship is traditionally ascribed to a blind poet named Homer, and it is under this name that the works are still published.

Der Schritt in die Selbständigkeit missglückt, die Schulden häufen sich und die Beziehung zerbricht – eine Existenz zerfällt vor unseren Augen. Die große Liebe stirbt, und mit ihr geht der Halt, emotional und materiell. Eine Mutter, die sich nie kümmern konnte, verschwindet, und die Suche nach bedingungsloser Liebe nimmt kein Ende. In vierzehn Episoden erzählt der Autor Stefan Weiller von gescheiterter Liebe und ihren Folgen – bis hin zum Suizid.

In her last days, Sylvia Plath struggled to break out from the control of the towering figure of her husband Ted Hughes. In the antique mythology of his retinue, she had become the gorgon threatening to bring down the House of Hughes. Drawing on recently available court records, archives, and interviews, and reevaluating the memoirs of the formidable Hughes contingent who treated Plath as a female hysteric, Carl Rollyson rehabilitates the image of a woman too often viewed solely within the confines of what Hughes and his collaborators wanted to be written.

Working from existing translations, Thomas Merton composed a series of his own versions of the classic sayings of Chuang Tzu, the most spiritual of Chinese philosophers. Chuang Tzu, who wrote in the fourth and third centuries BC, is the chief authentic historical spokesperson for Taoism and its founder, Lao Tzu (a legendary character known largely through Chuang Tzu’s writings).

Abraham Lincoln read it with approval, but Emily Dickinson described its bold language and themes as "disgraceful." And Ralph Waldo Emerson found Leaves of Grass "the most extraordinary piece of wit and wisdom that America has yet contributed," calling it a "combination of the Bhagavad Gita and the New York Herald."

How can we look afresh at Shakespeare as a writer of sonnets? What new light might they shed on his career, personality, and sexuality? Shakespeare wrote sonnets for at least 30 years, not only for himself, for professional reasons, and for those he loved, but also in his plays, as prologues, as epilogues, and as part of their poetic texture.

Ein Gedicht über Liebe, Leidenschaft und Trennungsschmerz! Im Sommer 1821 reiste Goethe für eine Kur in das Marienbad, wo er sich hoffnungslos in die siebzehnjährige Ulrike von Levetzow verliebte. Zwei Jahre später hielt er bei ihrer Mutter um Ulrikes Hand an. Ulrike, die sich noch zu jung fühlte, um eine Ehefrau zu werden, lehnte den Antrag jedoch dankend ab. Stefan Zweig erzählt von dieser unerfüllten Liebe in seiner Miniatursammlung "Sternstunde der Menschheit".

Les "Illuminations" ont été publiées en 1886, sous forme de feuilletons, dans la revue "La Vogue". Rimbaud a remis ces poèmes à Verlaine lors de leur rencontre à Stuttgart en mars 1875. C'est Verlaine qui s'est occupé de publier ces vers. Il y insère une préface dans laquelle il annonce que ces "ornementations colorées" se composent de "prose exquise ou vers délicieusement faux exprès".
