Abstract

In this brief translators’ introduction, we first outline the publication history and main themes of Gadamer’s 1966 essay "Hilde Domin: Song for Encouragement II" and its relation to Domin’s work. Then, we describe the significance of the essay for ongoing scholarly debates in hermeneutic philosophy on Gadamer and poetics, the hermeneutics of suspicion and trust, and ethics.
