Connecting poetry and philosophy of language, Philip Mills bridges
the continental and analytical divide by bringing together the
writings of Nietzsche and Wittgenstein. Through an expressivist
philosophy of poetry, he argues that we can understand some of the
core questions in the philosophy of language. Mills highlights the
continuity of poetic language with ordinary language, and positions
Nietzsche and Wittgenstein's thinking as the clearest way to expand
the philosophy of poetry. By tracing the expressivist tradition of
philosophy of language, this study locates its roots in German
Romanticism right through to the work of contemporary expressivists
such as Huw Price and Robert Brandom. Where poetry has been
difficult to grasp with the traditional philosophical tools used by
aestheticians, A Poetic Philosophy of Language operates at the
crossroads between philosophy of art and language, proposing a new
philosophy of poetry with wide-ranging potentialities.
