註釋After a childhood marked by loss and grief, H&ö lderlin studied theology in the illustrious company of Hegel and Schelling, before concentrating on poetry and writing his most famous work, Hyperion. But, afflicted by the pressures of life and a doomed love affair, he gradually went mad, and spent the final 36 years of his life in a solitary tower in T&ü bingen, cared for by a kindly carpenter. The younger poet Wilhelm Waiblinger, one of the few people to gain H&ö lderlin's confidence, visited him often. This is his beautifully written memoir of the stricken poet, a unique insight into his personality, sensitively translated by Will Stone.
