- Robert Hamerling, Austrian poet, was born of humble parentage at Kirchberg am Walde in Lower Austria. He displayed an early genius for poetry; his youthful attempts at drama excited the interest and admiration of some influential persons. Owing to their assistance young Hamerling was able to attend the Gymnasium in Vienna and subsequently the university. In 1848 he joined the students' legion, which played a large part in the revolutions of the capital, and in 1849 shared in the defence of Vienna against the imperialist troops of Prince Windischgrätz. After the collapse of the revolutionary movement he was obliged to hide for a long time to escape arrest. For the next few years he pursued his studies in natural science and philosophy, and in 1855 became master at the gymnasium at Trieste. For many years he battled with ill-health, and in 1866 retired on a pension, which in acknowledgment of his literary works was increased by the government to a sum sufficient to enable him to live without care until his death at his villa in Stiftingstal near Graz. Hamerling was one of the most remarkable poets of the modern Austrian school; his imagination was rich and his poems are full of life and colour. His most popular poem, Ahasver in Ram (1866), of which the emperor Nero is the central figure, shows at its best the author's brilliant talent for description. Among his other works may be mentioned Venus im Exil (1858); Der König von Sion (1869), which is generally regarded as his masterpiece; Die sieben Todsünden (1872) Blätter im Winde (1887); Homunculus (1888); Amor und Psyche (1882). His novel, Aspasia (1876) gives a finely-drawn description of the Periclean age, but like his tragedy Danton und Robespierre (1870), is somewhat stilted, showing that Hamerling's genius, though rich in imagination, was ill-suited for the realistic presentation of character. A popular edition of Hamerlings works in four volumes was published by M. M. Rabenlechner (Hamburg, 1900). For the poet's life, see his autobiographical writings, Stationen meiner Lebenspilgerschaft (1889) and Lehrjahre der Liebe (1890); also M. M. Rabenlechner, Hamerling, sein Leben und seine Werke, i. (Hamburg, 1896); a short biography by the same (Dresden, 1901); R. H. Kleinert, R. Hamerling, ein Dichter der Schönheit (Hamburg, 1889); A. Polzer, Hamerling, sein Wesen und Wirken (Hamburg, 1890).
- Robert Hamerling, geboren als Rupert Johann Hammerling, war Gymnasiallehrer, Dichter und Schriftsteller.
- Figlio di un povero sarto di Kirchberg am Walde nella Bassa Austria frequentò, grazie al sostegno di alcuni mecenati, il Schottengymnasium di Vienna. Nel 1848 nella capitale austriaca, dove aveva iniziato gli studi di di filosofia, storia e medicina, si unì ai gruppi rivoluzionari universiatari che chiedevano un governo più liberale e la cacciata di Metternich dalla Cancelleria imperiale, dando vita a una rivolta che causò la fuga dell'Imperatore Ferdinando I d'Austria e della famiglia reale austriaca a Innsbruck. Nel 1849 partecipò alla difesa della città messa sotto assedio dal Feldmaresciallo Alfred von Windisch-Graetz che al comando dell'esercito imperiale mise fine alla rivolta costringendo Hamerling a nascondersi per evitare la cattura. Nel 1852 per un breve periodo insegnò lingue e letteratura classica a Vienna per poi trasferirsi a Trieste dove dal 1855 al 1866 divenne insegnante di un liceo, nel periodo che visse nella città giuliana Hamerling srcisse Venus im Exil (1858) e Ein Schwanenlied der Romantik (1862). Nel 1866 per problemi di salute si ritirò a Graz dove diede inizio al suo periodo artistico più proficuo fino alla sua morte avvenuta nel 1889 all'età di 59 anni.
- Роберт Гамерлинг — австрийский поэт и драматург. Родом из бедной семьи. Окончил медицинский факультет Венского университета. Во время революции 1848 состоял членом объединявшего революционных студентов «Академического легиона», после революции — учитель гимназии в Триесте. На рубеже 1850-60-х гг. , в период бурного роста промышленности в Австрии Гамерлинг выступил с книгами стихов «Венера в изгнании» и «Лебединая песня романтизма» против века «пара и электричества», противопоставляя ему идеализированное, отвлечённое прошлое как царство красоты. Против механизации жизни он также направил и свою известную сатиру «Гомункулус». Гамерлинг не может примириться с духовной пустотой бюргерства, но блеск и роскошь новой жизни увлекают его. Творчество Гамерлинга — постоянная борьба между пессимизмом и жизнерадостностью, отличающая австрийскую интеллигенцию 1860-х. В поэме «Агасфер в Риме» эта борьба показана в столкновении между Нероном и первыми христианами, в поэме «Король Сиона» — между двумя фракциями анабаптистов, а в «Аспазии» — между философами и художниками Древней Греции. Гамерлинг написал также драму «Дантон и Робеспьер» нем. «Danton und Robespierre»; 1871), комедию и др.
