In the Air Where You Won’t Lie Too Cramped. Notes on the Irresolvable Tragedy of the Poet Paul Celan. Paul Celan’s work is characterized by reflections on the power and possibilities of language and poetry in general in processing personal tragedy and painful borderline experiences, especially the experience of the Holocaust. These experiences range from the persecution of Jews, the deportation and murder of his parents, to the Goll Plagiarism Affair or to mental illness in the last years of his life. These experiences of persecution and extermination of the Jews and Celan’s involvement in the tragedy of his people are reflected in many of his poems, especially in Todesfuge.
Keywords: Celan, Shoa, modern German poetry and language, tragedy
