Whether it is the actual end of our life’s journey or merely a transit point to heavenly glory, its actual point of impact is, obviously, life-changing. But what do poets think of it? How do their minds tangle with the subject and make sense of this? That’s what we wondered, too. Poets as rich and diverse as Longfellow, Hood, Bronte, Burns, and Gibran here share their words, thoughts and visions with us.

Hiawatha: Das ist der sagenumwobene Häuptling der Chippewa-Indianer, der an den Ufern des Großen Sees in Michigan gelebt haben soll. In 22 Strophen erzählt Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807 – 1882) von des großen Mannes Geburt, seiner Liebe zur Dakota Minnehaha, seinem friedvollen Wirken für sein Volk – und von seinem Tod. Nie wurde poetischer von den amerikanischen Ureinwohnern erzählt als in diesem Epos – das übrigens Antonin Dvorak zum zweiten Satz seiner Symphonie Nr. 9 "Aus der neuen Welt" inspirierte.
