I've been reading a lot of him lately with a linear translation. Are there any other German poets of the same flavor?

I like me some Schiller. Have you read his Mission of Moses. Interesting essay. Try Goethe for another poet.

Hölderlin has his moments, but Schiller is rather unique.

It is precisely “values” that are the powerless and threadbare mask of the objectification of beings, an objectification that has become flat and devoid of background. No one dies for mere values.
~Martin Heidegger

I have. I obviously believe he misinterpreted the essence of the Mosaic Law, but I still do love him as a poet.
