Resumen
This paper explores the meanings of isolation in Mascha Kaléko’s lyric poetry, especially in some pieces from the collection Das lyrische Stenogrammheft (1933). More specifically, I intend to outline the social formations of loneliness in these poems, whilst analysing individual conflicts between public and private spheres in modern urban life. As a result, Kaléko’s lyric poetry may offer an interpretative framework grounded on a historical representation of the metropolis (Weimar Berlin) for assessing present-day issues, such as self-absorption and loss of community.
