Von scheinenden Lampen
摘要
Starting from the controversy between Emil Staiger and Martin Heidegger over the interpretation of the verb scheinen in the last line of Mörike’s poem Auf eine Lampe, which results from a different understanding of hermeneutics as a technique and method of interpreting the meaning of individual literary texts or as a universal theory of interpreting literary works of art, the work focuses on the interpretative potential of a text-linguistically oriented method of analysing poetic texts.
