Summary/Abstract: Analyzing Hegel's youthful poetic endeavours, the author follows the evolution of the philosopher's view on the classic ideal. The evolution is better articulated in Hegels's early writings than in his pot try, but the latter seems to be the cristalization of the views that were later elaborated in treateases. The alliance between poetry amd philosophy was shown, all the way to personal union of poet and philosopher in one person like Schiller or Goethe; and the fate of Holdorlin and Hegel's friendship was described. Unlike Hölderlin, Hegel's interest in the classic, and his own poetic acts were not poetic in nature, but their aim was understanding and solving the contemporary social conflicts and clashes, namely to introduce the ancient polis into the contemporary world. In this sense, Hegel's Hölderlin's and Scheling's comprehension of poetry and its role in the contemprary world was compared by author.
