"On the table bread and wine"

Exploring the intersection of poetry and religion, this work revisits Georg Trakl's renowned poem against the backdrop of migration and historical upheaval. It delves into the themes of Classical Modernism, highlighting the "lack of language" stemming from the political catastrophes of the 20th century. The author questions the role of religious faith and theology in addressing this language deficit, particularly in light of contemporary neo-nationalism and populism. The text also continues theological and poetological discussions initiated in a previous work on Rilke's religious poetry.
