Abstract
This article deals with two writings that arise from the same impulse: the attempt of knowing what the subject is. Both María Zambrano, with the poetic reason, and Chantal Maillard, with the aesthetic reason, are trying to find, through philosophy, that cognitive background where thought and experience is so intensely intertwined. They start their walking in the same point, they share the same strategies (metaphor, repetition and music) but the result is radically different. Zambrano builds a metaphysical system in which the poetic word is able to reveal a hidden essential truth of Being. Maillard disables the inherited concepts to mark the logical mechanism of language and its epistemological limitations. The writing of María Zambrano nests in modern thought. The writing of Chantal Maillard fiercely bursts these postulates to stroke a postmodern thought.
