Summary
This chapter is concerned with the way Hölderlin figures in Heidegger. It seeks to address the question of why Hölderlin is so significant for Heidegger. In order to answer this question, what has to be taken up is the way Heidegger constructs Hölderlin. Having examined that construction, what then has to be addressed is the question of another Hölderlin. The presence of this other Hölderlin on that distances Heidegger’s is examined in relation to the question of who the “us” is to whom poetry is directed.
