Heidegger believed poetry, not philosophy, offers our best access to truth — that thinking must become more like poetic saying if it is to grasp what philosophy alone cannot reach. Join continental philosopher Babette Babich as she explores Heidegger's turn to Hölderlin and Rilke, but also what Anglophone poets can teach us that Heidegger's own thinking could not, and what it would mean to think — and to live — poetically once again.
"I like Babich's tough, at times even racy, rhetoric." – Clayton Koelb
