Inhaltsangabe

How can we characterize the uniqueness of poetic language? How can we describe the evasive enchantment of the paradox that is created by both universal and autobiographical expression? How does ordinary language function aesthetically while motivating the reader to acknowledge himself and to reveal how far his thinking belongs to the present, the future, or the past?

Ludwig Wittgenstein, the central founder of the linguistic turn and the inspiration of countless works, inspires the search of this book for various linguistic functions: Dialogic, aesthetic, and mystical. The search investigates four Modern Hebrew poets: Zelda, Yehuda Amichai, Admiel Kosman, and Shimon Adaf based on their family resemblance of intertextuality in their language-games. The book resists social-cultural categorizations as religious vs. secular poetry or Mizrahi vs. Ashkenazi literature, and instead, focuses on Wittgenstein's aspects, suggesting universal interpretation of these corpuses.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

As a lecturer in the unit of interdisciplinary studies in Bar-Ilan University, Dorit Lemberger's researches exemplify the relevance and importance of linguistic concepts to Hebrew literature and Jewish philosophy. Also, I use psychoanalytic insights in order to show the common linguistic ground of literature and psychoanalysis, as 'talking-cure'.
