Seven essays on poetry and the arts from German philosopher Martin Heidegger (1889-1976) are collected here, including his key work on aesthetics, The Origin of a Work of Art. However, for the purposes of this review I will focus on his less well-known essay, What Are Poets For?” Here are several direct Heidegger quotes followed by my micro-fiction serving as a tribute to what I take to be much of the spirit of this essay:

There was one chapter about art that I read for an independent study in college. It was about 42 pages and took me, literally, all summer to read. I have never read so slowly in my life. I read every single sentence about two million times and the depth of understanding was not proportional to that number - it actually, in some cases, with some sentences, decreased. Heidegger is insanely circular and creates his own language, almost a code, which you then have to translate from his equally origi..more

The nature of poetry, which has now been ascertained very broadly--but not on that account vaguely, may here be kept firmly in mind as something worthy of questioning, something that still has to be thought through.
The above is lifted from The Origin of the Work of Art, the second piece and first essay of this bewildering collection. Overall Poetry, Language, Thought was the most difficult text I've finished since https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2.. last summer. I read nearly every page fou

Hofstader's capable translation of these extraordinary Heidegger essays makes this one of the indispensable books of 20th century philosophy. This collection is especially indicative of Heidegger's 'turn' to art and poetry, particularly in his amazingly complex 'Origin of the Work of Art' and 'Poetically, Man Dwells.' 'The Thing' is also a remarkable essay in Heidegger's descriptions of the closing of distances in modernity, as well as his phenomenological observations of the relation between th..more
Absolutely one of Heidegger's best works. Initially, I read specific pieces (The Origin of the Work of Art, The Thing, and Language) from the book for a couple philosophy classes for my major; however, after doing so, I decided to read the book in its entirety. I'm glad I did.
I suppose one can say they are truly on a philosophical journey if and when Heidegger becomes an enjoyable read.

I hereby absolve myself of any guilt over not finishing this book.
While reading Stein’s Tender Buttons alongside Derrida’s Sign Structure, and Play, Heidegger’s Poetry, Language, Thought was a very appropriate text to continue studying the purpose of poetry— and the purpose of language and the individual word in general. The “Being,” “work-being” of the work, and various “origins” that Heidegger repeatedly makes reference to throughout the book again made me question the intangible “missing center,” “essence of the thing,” and the idea of approaching the word..more

This was a refreshing read. What I really like about Heidegger is his capacity to bring to the fore new definitions and to stick to them. Even though he is usually linked to Nazism, i think that people tend to forget that behind that name also lies a whole heritage of philosophy whose aim id to detect truth where we do not usually see it. But what I find a bit off is that Heidegger has been so obsessed with Being that maybe it dragged his thinking down. I know that the core of his philosophy hov..more

This book is a collection of lectures and essays of Heidegger (considered later Heidegger) put together by the editor. The theme is to get to the nature/essence of particular phenomena which in this case is art.
Heidegger's language is ambiguous. It takes time to understand what he means by 'thinging of things,' 'working of work,' 'Being of beings' etc., etc. It helped to read slowly and to draw diagrams to understand the connections he formulates between different concepts. His writing becomes

This isn't the kind of book you 'finish', but rather one you return to time and again, in its entirety and in portions, but I have now indeed read it to the end for the first time, and shall let that stand as having 'finished' it for now.

I'm gonna need to leave this to sit for a while. This was absolutely incredible and I think Heidegger makes some really interesting points about art (poetry especially), however I spent the entire time I was reading this feeling like my head was stuck in a vice with my brain slowly collapsing under the pressure. I feel like I'm definitely gonna have to return to this in smaller, more manageable bursts - reading individual essays over and over again, instead of trying to grapple with the entir

goodreads really needs to create another option/button for couldn't read or couldn't finish. heidegger's poetry is fairly useless, and his dog-chasing-its-tail philosophy of where does art begin and where does the artist end (and vice-versa) left me cold.

Martin Heidegger's Poetry, Language, Thought is a very obscure book. Heidegger writes in a style all his own, with phrases that he himself has coined and using imagery that favors pastoral and religious life. Nevertheless, I will try, very briefly, to translate the upshot of the essays in this collection from 'Heideggerese' into plain English (inasmuch as I can make sense of them).
'The Origin of the Work of Art' is about how the purpose of artwork is to reveal tensions--like the natural world ve

Intense. It took no less than 2.5 months to read this thin volume of lectures. As a recommendation, do not, as I did not, read this book in order (I heeded the suggestion of another scholar and thank my lucky stars). I think this seemingly disorganized method made all the difference in reading this work. I started with 'The Thing' read along with Buddhist thought (namely the Boddhisatva), 'Building Dwelling Thinking' along with architectural theory aligned with Heidegger, '..poetically, Man dwe..more
These are challenging essays, especially if you haven't read his tome-like book on thinking and being.
I objected deeply to 'What Are Poets For?' Heidegger close-reads a Rilke poem in such a way as to prove Heidegger's own philosophical assertions, and it seems ludicrous. Go read Nabokov's Pale Fire instead, and laugh at that sort of attempt.
There are some brilliant ideas, here, however. They just need to be read in context with more study of Heidegger. Though it seems logical to collect these th

An absolutely fascinating book early off, it delves into the nature of poetry, language, and thought (shocking given the title). It asks about what art is, what work is, and how art is work, and in what way art exists. Early essays are reminiscent of Being and Time, but the later works are ephemeral and spiritual which lost quite a bit of my interest. As I continue through my Heidegger journey I may come back and reread these to see if I still hold the same opinion.
Over my head--plenty of interesting passages, though: 'Is the structure of a simple propositional statement (the combination of subject and predicate) the mirror image of the structure of the thing (of the union of substance with accidents)? Or could it be that even the structure of the thing as thus envisaged is a projection of the framework of the sentence?' p. 23

'Language is the house of being'
This collection of essays on the purpose of art and the relationship between art, language, and thought epitomized through poetry is a dense but fascinating read.
Heidegger ultimately argues that the purpose of art is to mark the boundary between things and being. The contemplation of what it is to Be is the defining characteristic of humanity. All things Are but only humans think about what it is or means to Be.
According to Heidegger, language is merely utilitarian unless it points to beingness.

This book transitions incredibly well from Intro to Metaphysics, that I think reading them together in that order is a must. The fourfold, besides just being a bizarre way to characterize different aspects of unconcealment, is made intelligible in light of the four restrictions on Being from intro (although the fourfold DOES NOT coincide with the four restrictions, the meaning of earth,sky,mortals and divinities will become clearer with that particular background)

This should not be considered Heidegger's aesthetics. It is a collection of texts which express art's (and particularily poetry's) role in the thinging of things and the worlding of the world - of the eventful appropriation which unfolds and holds together the unity of the fourfold. Poetry and art express the coming to be, the instatement, of the world in truth as unconcealing and taking place. Does this sound like aesthetics? It is the attempt at thinking outside of metaphysics, of which aesthe..more
I bought this book to discover I'd already read all the essays it contains. But I've learned the only way one can read Heidegger is to constantly re-read Heidegger. So it was no tragedy. Plus, Building, Dwelling, Thinking? That one will never get old for me.

I read this collection over the course of about six months, picking it up at varying intervals to read an essay or two when the time felt right. Coming to its conclusion, I think Poetry, Language, Thought is necessary reading for poets, however troubled Heidegger's reputation has become (once again) since the publication of his notebooks. This is, of course, not to make light of antisemitism or the people who espouse it, but without delving into a philosophical argument of many pages, I will say..more

This is a really good survey of Heidegger's later work. I found these to be a lot more eliptical than his earlier, more strictly metaphysicsal stuff, and while that makes them tougher to parse in a certain sense, it gives them a slower, more medatative quality which I really found engaging. The poetic exegisis he provides are some of the best, most dizzying close readings I've come across. If nothing else, they made me actually care about whatever it was that was happening in 19th century romant..more

This is a great Heidegger book. It compliments Introduction to Metaphysics understanding of Alethia and Phusis while adding its own new ideas.
In the essay 'Origin of the Work of Art' Heidegger makes a case for what he views as art. I find it ungrounded and he is placing an arbitrary emphasis on art. His argument and the phenomena he describes however is really provocative and illuminating as another aspect of Dasein and beings. I found this the most challenging essay in the book.

Martin Heidegger (1889–1976) was a German philosopher whose work is perhaps most readily associated with phenomenology and existentialism, although his thinking should be identified as part of such philosophical movements only with extreme care and qualification. His ideas have exerted a seminal influence on the development of contemporary European philosophy. They have also had an impact far beyo..more
“All distances in time and space are shrinking. […] Yet the frantic abolition of all distances brings no nearness; for nearness does not consist in shortness of distance. What is least remote from us in point of distance, by virtue of its picture on film or its sound on radio, can remain far from us. What is incalculably far from us in point of distance can be near to us. […] Everything gets lumped together into uniform distanceless. […] What is it that unsettles and thus terrifies? It shows itself and hides itself in the way in which everything presences, namely, in the fact that despite all conquest of distances the nearness of things remains absent.” — 3 likes
