River and stream as images of time and fate are as ancient as spring and stream as metaphors of inspiration and song. Processes of crossing and dissolving boundaries, of transmission and exchange are visualised in different images of fluidity. At the sixth Colloquium of the International Arnim Society held in Burg Schönburg (Oberwesel), the participants discussed this complex of images and metaphors, from the flowing Rhine via cash flows to the flow of a text and energy flows in the body ' using too the context of 'œRomantic Science'. Novalis' conception of poetry as 'œby its nature fluid' is opposed by Goethe's lines 'œWater drawn by bards whosefame /Pure is, may be rounded'.
