Poetic Speech: The Transmission Of The Dark Light

This paper attempts to reveal Heidegger's aesthetic motive from his obscure stating. It thinks that "paradox speech"forms Heidegger's surface symbol of opposing the technical world by the poetic world. So we can find an explanation clue to show his later language view clearly and to link up ontology, epistemology and methodology, and find a new research view angle of Heidegger's later language view.According to ontology,"poetic existence"forms the original state of human existence, that is "nothing". All the "having"which is formed on the distinction foundation first find their source from "nothing"; according to epistemology, the nature of the language lies in aestheticness and the paradox is the basic feature of aesthetic language as well as the core connotation of quadruplex whole world of heaven, earth, God and human being. Mankind is doomed to live in a world that is mutually involved in its surrounding world and separated it as well. The missions of the poets and philosophers is to show such a paradox world. So "poetic speech"becomes the light of penetrating the dim world of "nothing".The "poetic speech"in paradox is the bridge leads to poetic inhabitation. The meaning of the method shown by Heidegger has even exceeded the epistemology thought of aesthetic language that he offered, for "poetic speech"is not only a method but also a strategy. Heidegger uses this strategy to clear up entity status of human being, that is to desalinize and even subvert human intention of understanding and controlling the world in "poetic speech". Thus he enlightens us: "human being "is just a member in the world.Just because of this, not only Heidegger never cognizes anything clearly and definitely, but also whether we have fallen into the metaphysics that he objects to when we attempt to summarize his language view with "paradox"? This is a predicament to an elucidator and the paradox that Heidegger can't go beyond. But this paper thinks "human being"himself exists metaphysically and our summary can get support from Heidegger's works, therefore to an elucidator Heidegger's speech is not like what he said "road but not works", but the road as well as the works! The paper is divided into five parts: Foreword: Put forward question and summarize the way of Heidegger's speech language to "paradox speech". The first part: redefinition of "paradox"and the expression of "paradox speech". This part uses paradox from three angles, first "the paradox discourse expression"in classical rhetoric, namely absurdity on the surface and true statement in fact. But it does not regard the paradox as the basic feature that the poem is different from other styles of literature. Poem is only the typical representative of aesthetic textual discourse. Secondly, "paradox indication"that it is mutual existence and contradiction. But it does not limit to logic field. As regards this paper, the paradox indication is more about the paradox indication in philosophy and aesthetics. Thirdly, "paradox existence"in the meaning of ontology. According to the basic existence state of the whole world made up of by heaven, earth, human being and God, it thinks "paradox existence"determines "paradox discourse expression"and "paradox indication". The second part: the reason of "paradox speech". It has two reasons: one is the phenomenon method shown by the continuity of the previous form, another is the language tool view and the thinking way that are against the metaphysics. The third part: the motive of aesthetic language view behind the "paradox speech". This part summarizes Heidegger's aesthetic language view and its status in the history of western language philosophy from four aspects: its external expression feature is paradox speech; its existence basis is the quadruplex paradox whole born in heaven, earth, God and human being; the philosophical foundation of the language is the corresponding theory of neologisms; the basic operation mechanism is...
