Deutsche Lyrik seit Liliencron - 1921 Edition (German)

Deutsche Lyrik seit Liliencron, edited by Hans Bethge, is a German-language poetry anthology published by Hesse & Becker Verlag in Leipzig. This 1921 edition, marked as the 88th–92nd thousand printing, reflects the popularity and continued readership of German lyric poetry in the early twentieth century.

The collection gathers poetry from the period following Detlev von Liliencron, an influential German poet whose work helped shape modern German verse. Edited by Bethge, himself a noted poet and translator, the anthology offers readers a literary snapshot of changing poetic styles, themes, and voices in German literature.

A meaningful choice for readers and collectors interested in German poetry, European literature, antique books, and early twentieth-century publishing, this volume carries historical and literary appeal. Its German text, Leipzig publisher, and 1921 printing make it a distinctive addition to a vintage poetry or foreign-language book collection.
