Abstract
Although Max Kommerell has been recently rediscovered as a literary scholar, his own poetry remains relatively unknown. The following essay concentrates on Kom-merell's last publication Mit gleichsam chinesischem Pinsel, published in 1944. It examines in what way his poems are committed to Chinese aesthetics and takes a closer look at the aesthetic implications of the artist's brush stroke in Kommerell's poems.
