Produktinformationen zu „Hyperion (ePub)“
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's 'Hyperion' is a seminal work that encapsulates both the romantic spirit of its era and the author's own transcendent fascination with European heritage and culture. Within its pages, readers will find a blend of travelogue and semi-autobiographical novel, with a rich tapestry of lyrical prose and keenly felt emotional insight. Longfellow's writing, characterized by its evocative imagery and rhythmic grace, reflects the literary sensibilities of the 19th century, drawing readers into a journey both physical and spiritual across the storied landscapes of Europe, often seen through a lens shaded by personal loss and longing.
As one of the most recognized figures in American literary history, Longfellow was not only a poet but a scholar well-versed in the languages and literatures of the Old World. A reflection of his scholarly pursuits and personal voyages, 'Hyperion' is often considered as Longfellow's attempt to reconcile the nostalgic idealization of European culture with the raw vigor of the New World. This work serves as a testament to Longfellow's profound engagement with the themes of love, loss, and the search for meaning amidst the ruins of the past.
For aficionados of traditional romantic literature, 'Hyperion' presents an engaging blend of narrative depth and stylistic elegance. Longfellow's intimate familiarity with his subject matter and the eloquent interweaving of his own experiences render the book an essential read for those who yearn to explore the emotional and intellectual currents of the 19th century.

Autoren-Porträt von Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882) was a towering figure in American literature during the 19th century, revered for his lyric poetry, which combined American themes with classical knowledge. Born in Portland, Maine, when it was still part of Massachusetts, Longfellow demonstrated a precocious literary talent. He graduated from Bowdoin College alongside Nathaniel Hawthorne and subsequently spent time in Europe to prepare for a career in academia. He became a professor first at Bowdoin and later at Harvard, perfecting his multilingual expertise. Longfellow's body of work transcends the simple demarcations of genre, seamlessly blending the epic with the tender lyricism. His work encompasses a spirit of universality and moral clarity that mirrored the young nation's ambition and optimism. 'Hyperion' (1839), a romantic novel steeped in a European sensibility, showcases Longfellow's narrative prowess and his keen appreciation for European culture and lore. While 'Hyperion' is not as widely celebrated as his poetry, it stands testament to Longfellow's versatility and his earnest exploration of the depths of human experience. With a literary style marked by sentimentality and a proclivity toward verse that often employed a fireside narrative charm, Longfellow's poetry garnered great public affection, ensuring his place in American literary tradition. Among his enduring contributions are 'The Song of Hiawatha', 'Evangeline', and 'Paul Revere's Ride,' which remain staples within the canon of American poetry.
