Poetry and Metaphysics
View through CrossRef
In this foundational article from 1939, Wahl elucidates several fundamental connections between metaphysics and poetry, and demonstrates how various French, German, and English language poets convey profound metaphysical ideas. Wahl shows how poetry is able to join opposites, without fully reconciling them, in such a way that allows for both transcendence and a return to immanence. This is, however, not unlike metaphysics as Wahl understands it. He accordingly concludes with the idea that “the core of poetry will always be metaphysics, and it is quite possible that the core of metaphysics is, equally, always poetry.”
