| Σύνοψη: | This article relates the post-war Jewish poet Paul Celan's notion of creatureliness to the narrative of the Fall as modulated by the preromantic philosopher J. G. Hamann, conceived not as transcendental spirit's fall from self-presence into the temporal, material world, but rather as an alienating process taking place in language itself, making creation hostage to instrumental reason. The article traces the influence of Hamann's poetics of attentiveness on the language theories of Walter Benjamin and Martin Heidegger, and shows how Celan is both fascinated by and engages critically with the idea of poetry as a "pure" performative, pre-lapsarian language of revelation. |
