Friedrich Holderlin
Johann Christian Friedrich Hölderlin is a German poet and philosopher. Described by Norbert von Hellingrath as "the most German of all Germans", Hölderlin is a key figure in German Romanticism. Particularly due to his early connection and philosophical influence on Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel and Friedrich Wilhelm Joseph Schelling, he was also an important thinker in the development of German idealism. Born in Lauffen am Neckar, Hölderlin had a childhood marked by loss. His mother intended to send him to the Lutheran ministry and he frequented Tübinger Stift, where he befriended Hegel and Schelling. He graduated in 1793 but did not manage to devote himself to the Christian faith, instead becoming a tutor. Two years later, he attended the University of Jena, where he came into contact with Johann Gottlieb Fichte and Novalis, before continuing his career as a tutor. He struggled to become a poet and suffered from mental illness.
