Poetic critique - is that not an oxymoron? Do these two forms of
behavior, the poetic and the critical, not pull in different, even
opposite, directions? For many scholars working in the humanities
today, they largely do, but that has not always been the case.
Friedrich Schlegel, for one, believed that critique worthy of its
name must itself be poetic. Only then would it stand a chance of
responding adequately to the work of art. Taking Schlegel's idea of
poetische Kritik as a starting point, this volume reflects on the
possibility of drawing these alleged opposites closer together. In
light of current debates about the legacy of critique, it
investigates whether a concept such as poetic critique (or poetic
criticism) lends itself to enriching our intellectual practice by
engaging with the poetic potential of criticism and the critical
value of art and literature.
