Drawing on the work of Husserl, Heidegger and Merleau-Ponty, Luke Fischer makes a new contribution to the tradition of phenomenological poetics and expands the debate among Germanists concerning the phenomenological status of Rilke's poetry, which has been severely limited to comparisons of Rilke and Husserl.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFischer explicates an implicit phenomenology of perception in Rilke's writings from his middle period (1902-1910). He argues that Rilke cultivated an artistic perception that, in a philosophically significant manner, overcomes the opposition between the sensuous and the intelligible while simultaneously transcending the boundaries of philosophy. Fischer offers novel interpretations of central poems from Rilke's \u003ci\u003eNeue Gedichte\u003c\/i\u003e (1907) and \u003ci\u003eDer neuen Gedichte anderer Teil\u003c\/i\u003e (1908) and frames them as the ultimate articulation of Rilke's non-dualistic vision. He thus demonstrates the continuity between Rilke and phenomenology while arguing that poetry, in this case, provides the most adequate response to a philosophical problem.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Luke Fischer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1501326031\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781501326035\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Continnuum-3PL\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/08\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.50w x 0.80d","brand":"Luke Fischer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43935196184831,"sku":"9781501326035","price":37.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_1b1fa4d9-6913-404a-83b6-53307a6bc24d.jpg?v=1681418414","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-poet-as-phenomenologist-luke-fischer-9781501326035","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
