Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the life and literary career of Benjamin Neukirch, a German poet of the 17th and 18th centuries. Neukirch played a significant role in transitioning from the second Silesian school of poetry to the more refined styles that would define the movement in later years.… As a follower of the Silesian school, Neukirch initially imitated its baroque style, characterized by elaborate language and sensual imagery, which can be seen in his early works modeled after Hofmannswaldau and Lohenstein. However, the author argues that Neukirch's literary trajectory shifted, and he eventually rejected these influences in favor of a more controlled and polished approach. This shift aligned him with the emerging new literary sensibilities influenced by French classicism and the rise of rationalism and paved the way for the third Silesian school. Neukirch's satirical writings, influenced by Boileau, and his emphasis on linguistic purity were particularly influential in shaping the direction of German literature. An exploration of Neukirch's journey from a Silesian to a more classical style offers a fascinating perspective on the transformation of German poetry during this period.
