The paper aims at discussing Gadamer’s relationship with Hölderlin. By reconstruct ing the birth and the different stages of this confrontation, I will show the way Hölderlin becomes over time a speculative reference point for the development of Gadamer’s hermeneutics. In the maturity of Gadamer’s thinking, Hölderlin seems to be indeed on the one hand an author with whom to look back on the most critical aspects of two core concepts, such as the fusion of horizons and the classical; on the other hand, the confrontation with Hölderlin constitutes a pivotal point for the hermeneutical reflection on the status of poetry and on the relationship between literature and philosophy.

Abstract
The paper aims at discussing Gadamer’s relationship with Hölderlin. By reconstruct ing the birth and the different stages of this confrontation, I will show the way Hölderlin becomes over time a speculative reference point for the development of Gadamer’s hermeneutics. In the maturity of Gadamer’s thinking, Hölderlin seems to be indeed on the one hand an author with whom to look back on the most critical aspects of two core concepts, such as the fusion of horizons and the classical; on the other hand, the confrontation with Hölderlin constitutes a pivotal point for the hermeneutical reflection on the status of poetry and on the relationship between literature and philosophy.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
