The Look of Things by Carsten Strathausen

Examining the relationship between German poetry, philosophy, and visual media around 1900, Carsten Strathausen argues that the poetic works of Rainer Maria Rilke, Hugo von Hofmannsthal, and Stephan George focused on the visible gestalt of language as a means of competing aesthetically with the increasing popularity and reality effect of photography and film.
Carsten Strathausen is assistant professor of German at the University of Missouri at Columbia.
