This is the first authoritative, book-length study of what
Heidegger called "thinking poetics." "That Is to Say" conducts its
analysis of Heideggerian poetics by expounding the sense of
language from the perspective of fundamental ontology. This project
is carried out in readings of the pertinent chapters of "Being and
Time," the lectures on Holderlin, "The Origin of the Work of Art,"
and "On the Way to Language." The book is guided by a question that
no other writer on Heidegger has yet asked: Why should "poiesis"
provide a privileged access to the specificity of the poetic?
With this question guiding his quite unorthodox analyses of
Heidegger's texts on poetics and the work of art, the author sheds
new light on every aspect of Heidegger's philosophy. The analyses
devoted to Heidegger's idea of a proximity between thinking and
poetry, his conception of Holderlin as "the" poet, of poetic
experience, and of the privilege he accords the name reveal a
series of presuppositions and necessary assumptions in Heidegger's
conception of poetry that not only remain unthought by Heidegger
himself, but that, strictly speaking, cannot be thought in terms of
what Heidegger understood by thinking.
"That Is to Say" points to the limits of poetics with regard to the
work of art, and in particular the literary work. In doing so, it
gestures toward new ways of doing justice to the literary and to
art in general.
