Georg Trakl's Poetry
The chaotic mixture of elements in Trakl's poems is more apparent than real, this book argues, thus challenging the "Orphic" view of Walther Killy and his followers. A dream of unity—one of the most ancient dreams in human history—is in fact reflected in all of Trakl's work. The recurring themes in Trakl's poetry are brought into focus through Dr. Detsch's literary, psychological, and philosophical analysis: the union of male and female in incest from the Jungian standpoint, the union of life and death from the Heideggerian standpoint and that of German Romanticism as represented by Novalis, the union of good and evil from the Dostoyevskian or Nietzschean standpoint, the mixture of images from the Goethean definition of symbolism. Trakl (1887–1914) is presented as a poet whose lyric voice sounded a cry of hope in its deepest despair. As Dr. Detsch's generous quotations from the poet's work (in the original German) make clear, Georg Trakl sought poetic expression for a union of opposites.

Georg Trakl and the Brenner Circle
This controversial study places the work of the Austrian poet Georg Trakl (1887-1914) within the context of the intellectual and cultural milieu surrounding Ludwig von Ficker (1880-1966), the editor of one of the most significant avant-garde periodicals at the time of German expressionism. In contrast to many studies which see Trakl as the literary heir of Rimbaud and Hölderlin, among others, this study concentrates on his heretofore unexamined relationships to other contributors to the Brenner. It uncovers an atmosphere of repressed and tormented sexuality which seems to have been characteristic of provincial Austria at the turn of the century and which erupts menacingly in Trakl's poetry.

The Gentle Apocalypse
Through close readings of poems covering the span of Georg Trakl's lyric output, this study traces the evolution of his strangely mild and beautiful vision of the end of days.
