This volume brings together forty interpretations of German verse
produced by Germanists working at institutions of Higher Education in
Ireland. The historical range of the contributions is extraordinary.
They cover poems dating from 1663 to 1991, many of which reflect the
radically divergent personal and socio-political circumstances which
prevailed at the time of their production. However, the volume lays no
claim to literary-historical exhaustiveness. Indeed the poetic
preferences of the contributors mean that clusters of interest emerge;
these clusters often reflect radical changes in the historical
background and artistic climate. The formal range of the poetry
covered, the English translations of the poems, and the diversity in
the critical method of the contributors will make this volume a
valuable resource.
