Dichtungen der letzten Wanderjahre 1721-1723: 1: Texte. 2: Nachweise, Erl#x000E4;uterungen und Gesamtverzeichnisse

This volume presents 196 poems, letters, and drafts dating from the final 21 months of Günther’s life. During this time, Günther wrote new derisive verses, panegyrics, and wedding verses; spiritual poems for a devotional setting; and his well-known self-justification letter to his father. Despite illness and exhaustion, Günther was able to maintain his poetic sensibility, his role as learned poet, and his clever wit.
