Abstract

The poems of Hugo von Hofmannsthal (1874-1929) and Ahmet Hamdi Tanpinar (1901-1962) show the characteristics of Romanticism. At the turn of the century, the tendency towards the romantic movement in Western literature forms the basis of the New Romantic movement. In the poems of Hofmannsthal and Tanpinar, the most prominent features of the New Romantic movement are dreamy inward orientation, the idea of eternity and inclusion of the subject of time into literature in parallel with the technical developments of the period. Both poets perceived abstract and concrete elements from a perspective that could be expressed as 'border situation' in their poems and brought them together in a common and aesthetic framework. According to them, elements belonging to different fields are not the opposite of each other, they are just like parts complementing each other. This 'border situation perspective', which creates a dreamy and ambiguous atmosphere in their poetries, ensures that everything appears before the reader in a unique way.
