Droste-Landschaft : Lyrikweg. Wanderbuch
The poet Annette von Droste-Hülshoff (1797-1848) wandered back and forth between these two places ever since she left Hülshoff Castle in 1826 to live and write in nearby Haus Rüschhaus. For an author who felt a sense of belonging to this landscape and who had a keen perceptive faculty, such paths could become adventures, journeys of discovery that sounded out how the concrete walk through forest and heath, across meadows and fields, could be translated into poetic language.
Visitors to the Poetry Path can now join such a journey of discovery. The Wanderbuch is a bibliophilic version of this journey of discovery in the landscape. Along the 20 stations of the Poetry Path, Droste's texts are presented in a theme- and location-specific manner and contextualised by introductory information texts on the author, her work, everyday culture and nature. In addition, texts by contemporary authors invite visitors to poetic discoveries at the ten larger stations. They were invited to engage with the places and Droste's texts. Five essayistic »vantage points« by outstanding Droste experts take a look at the Poetry Path from a scholarly perspective and discuss, from the standpoint of the present, what significance the change has had in the past and will have in the future.
The publication is only available in German - but some texts are written in other languages.
