El pensamiento, el juego y lo terrible de la escritura

Abstract

This article reflects upon the relationship between thinking, playing and writing. It starts from the reflection around the apparent contrast between the innocence of the poetic game and the dangerousness of language, to interrogate two considerations that, although closely related, are usually formulated differently: on the one hand, poetry as an innocent activity that is unfolds in the realm of the dangerous; on the other, writing as a vain game in which something terrible is put into play. Poetry is approached as an eccentric logos, which resists the becoming-reason of the word. The question about the relationship between art and the seriousness of life is addressed. Finally, it proposes a consideration about the time of the game in poetry, or even, of the time considered as game.
