The article provides a comparative analysis of two interpretations of Friedrich Hölderlin’s ode Blödigkeit from the poetry cycle Nachtgesänge, proposed by the well-known German literary scholar Jochen Schmidt and the Hungarian Germanist Eva Kocziszky. Particular attention is paid to the differing readings of the poem’s central motifs and, above all, to the nature of poetic creation, reflection, and the reception of antiquity in Hölderlin’s later poetics. The conducted analysis demonstrates the evolution of hermeneutic strategies within Hölderlin studies, which is directly linked to shifts in scientific paradigms and the historical-cultural context.
