The essay concentrates itself on the interrelationships between epistemological and linguistic reflections concerning the crisis of modern subjectivity in Gottfried Benn’s Rönne cycle. The first section of the essay offers an approach to the scientific and epistemological background of the crisis of modern subjectivity, that Benn dealt with in his early work. In the second section, the collapse of humanist notions of subjectivity is brought into connection with Rönne’s linguistic attempts at adjustment. Rönne’s efforts focused on the “creation of a new syntax” are articulated in different phases, which this essay attempts to analyze from the point of view of stylistic analysis, thought rendering and text semantics.

Abstract

The essay concentrates itself on the interrelationships between epistemological and linguistic reflections concerning the crisis of modern subjectivity in Gottfried Benn’s Rönne cycle. The first section of the essay offers an approach to the scientific and epistemological background of the crisis of modern subjectivity, that Benn dealt with in his early work. In the second section, the collapse of humanist notions of subjectivity is brought into connection with Rönne’s linguistic attempts at adjustment. Rönne’s efforts focused on the “creation of a new syntax” are articulated in different phases, which this essay attempts to analyze from the point of view of stylistic analysis, thought rendering and text semantics.
