Romanticism is my favorite period. Nice taste.
I´d recommend Eichendorff if you havent read him already.

>>20708907
Don´t worry, everybody goes trough that phase

>>20708922
Basic but solid
>Mainländer
Never got the time to get more into his stuff, what would you recommend I start with?

Thats a very good question.
Of course it depends on your personal taste and mostly your historical interests, but I would say the most interesting german literature comes from the time where germany had its golden age. So 18-19th century (Plus the start of the 20th).
Romanticism is a great place to start. Novalis, Eichendorff or ETA Hoffmann are some of the Best right there.

That's kinda why I hate him, all his problems were self inflicted. Depressed because his father was too much of a gigachad, a hit with the ladies but can't marry because he fears what his gigachad father will think about his marriage, a great talented writer but his personal misery seeps into every page that he touches. And instead of ever confronting his father and fixing that relationship like a man he wallows in misery and writes a
>n-n-n-n-n-o-o-o-o y-y-y-o-o-u-u
letter as soon as his father dies where he accuses him of taking his shirt off too much in the showers.
With that talent he could have been the gigachad of philosophers, now he is just "How to self induce social anxiety and die an incel despite looking good Elliot Rodger style 101"
