Hymns To The Night, Version 2

Hymns to the Night, version 2

by Novalis

‘Hymns to the Night’ is a collection of poems written by Novalis, a German Romantic poet, after the death of his beloved Sophie von Kühn. The poems explore themes of love, loss, faith, and the longing for the divine. Novalis uses the imagery of the night and the stars to represent the beauty and mystery of the unknown, and he seeks to find meaning in the face of death and suffering. The poems are deeply personal and introspective, and they reveal Novalis's own struggle with grief and his search for spiritual understanding. The book is a testament to the power of love and faith in the face of adversity, and it continues to resonate with readers today.
