Klaus M. Rarisch (born January 17, 1936 in Berlin ; † July 20, 2016 there ) was a German poet .

Life

Rarisch worked as a scientific archivist . For years he played a decisive role as the driving force behind literary series of events within the framework of the Berlin Mass Grave Society . Together with Dieter Volkmann , in view of the nuclear armament, based on an imminent end of culture, he founded his own literary trend, the ultimism , which had to face this situation (cf. Finism ).

He published poetry (especially sonnets ), but also essays and pamphlets on Arno Holz (whose estate he looked after), poetry theory, Group 47 and literary cliques . He also translated poems from Italian (including Giuseppe Gioacchino Belli ) and English .
