This paper concentrates on Hölderlin’s view on religion as it is presented in the fragment Über Religion. The underlining assumption is that this fragment, which concerns the reciprocal implication between philosophy, religion and poetry, succeeds in illuminating the most radical aspects of Hölderlin’s thinking on the topic. The paper aims to show that the question on the origin of religion is the kernel of the argument in the fragment and that, according to Hölderlin, it is from a feeling of gratitude that all reasoning on God stems, and that it arises in a way that links it intimately with a peculiar use of language.

Abstract
This paper concentrates on Hölderlin’s view on religion as it is presented in the fragment Über Religion. The underlining assumption is that this fragment, which concerns the reciprocal implication between philosophy, religion and poetry, succeeds in illuminating the most radical aspects of Hölderlin’s thinking on the topic. The paper aims to show that the question on the origin of religion is the kernel of the argument in the fragment and that, according to Hölderlin, it is from a feeling of gratitude that all reasoning on God stems, and that it arises in a way that links it intimately with a peculiar use of language.
