摘要

Friedrich Nietzsche and Gerard Manley Hopkins simultaneously and independently of each other developed philosophical interpretations of rhythmic phenomena and applied them to their own writing. The agonistic relationship of prose and poetry is central for both of them. The freedom of rhythms is not, however, as is traditionally the case, understood as primarily a negative form of freedom, for example as freedom from metrical conventions, but as the positive freedom of poetic creativity. Both Nietzsche’s and Hopkins’ idiosyncratic reflections on rhythm and the freedom of rhythms show affinities with the then young discipline of the philosophy of mind; they also anticipate elements of phenomenology.
