Johann Georg Hamann is notorious for his "obscure writing style". This characterisation somehow advanced both to a lasting topos of Hamann lecture and criticism of which Goethe and Hegel are the most prominent representatives. Hamann repeatedly concerned himself with rhetoric issues and "correct" writing styles. In various writings and letters, he explicitly commented on the reproach of obscurity, defended his particular writing style and explained his concept of style. However, it is the design of his writing which pushes the limits of classic rhetoric or even moves them far beyond, thus confronting the reader with writings that try to exhaust both the linguistic means of individual presentation and textuality. Rhetoric means here not only serve Hamann as a pure incorporation of his thoughts but are an inseparable expression of the individuality of the author and emphasize the indissoluble tension between the generality of language and the individual’s need for expression.
