Abstract
DOI: 10.12957/ek.2015.15452 In this article I try to demonstrate how Heidegger’s engagement with poetry forms a step in the development of his philosophy of Being, by interpreting Heidegger’s dialogue with poetry as an essential step for the task of thinking on the path of overcoming metaphysics. Heidegger’s essay The End of Philosophy and the Task of Thinking is one of the few writings after Being and Time that does not contain an explicit reference to poetry. Heidegger advocates, here, that futural thinking should think ‘truth’ from its relation to aletheia, i.e. the unconcealment as the openness of presence. Despite the lack of a reference to poetry in this text I would like to argue that if we interpret Heidegger in broader sense as onto-poetology, thinking the openness must remain intimately related to poetry.
