Friedrichshagener poet circle

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Friedrichshagener Dichterkreis was a loose association of writers of naturalism who met from 1888/89, first in the houses of Wilhelm Bölsche and Bruno Wille in Friedrichshagen on Müggelsee (today in the Berlin district of Treptow-Köpenick ).

The spiritual beginning of the Friedrichshagener Dichterkreis can be found in the visits of the Freundeskreis around Bölsche und Wille to Gerhart Hauptmann in Erkner , where they sought the tranquility of the Brandenburg landscape near the cosmopolitan city of Berlin . The reputation of the association reached far beyond Germany, so that a number of Scandinavians joined them.

Life reform goals with a bohemian lifestyle - this is how one could briefly characterize the circle of writers and intellectuals who settled in Friedrichshagen around 1890. The ideas circulating in this circle stimulated the establishment of the fruit-growing cooperative Eden . Another offshoot was the New Community .

In 1962, Johannes Bobrowski and Manfred Bieler founded the New Friedrichshagener Poet Circle, which was not taken seriously .
