Notas para una poética de lo inefable

Abstract

Why write and not be silent? The world emerges from that hole, only inhabited by silence, to be shaped, represented by language, but this effort is futile since the word can only manage to represent a ghost in which the depth of the void has been replaced by empty talk. How do the world, silence and language interrelate? Is the ineffable a part of life? Everything arises from a void, a lack, or a need of sense. Thus, the world being initially silence, it is us that cause conflict when we make it speak, when we turn that primeval silence into linguistic dispute. The naked silence thus becomes the language of annihilation, poetic and/or philosophical word.
