Currently reading him, a german mystic(ish) writer from the late 1700s. anyone has read him?
>>24765304I just got a collection of his writings last week
>>24765304I listen to the band
>>24765304Yeah, I read nearly all of his works
>>24765304There are many german poets. How does Novalis fare to popular ones like Goethe or Schiller?
>>24765408He is much more religious than Goethe and Schiller
had a phase were i read german romantics from the 18-19th century. Novalis was one of them. I have read hymns of the night, some poems and heinrich von ofterdingen, that was an extremely comfy read, sad he never was able to write the sequels he planned. Thanks for reminding me. Hölderlin has sctratched the same itch if you search for similar authors or need recs

Bump for Novalis. I've been meaning to read Heinrich von Ofterdingen for ages.Friedrich Schlegel and Ludwig Tieck are cool too.
>>24765304> anyone has read himprobably someone who can't geit laid and needs overcompesate with erudition.
