Arnold Spescha: «Sinzurs el serein dalla sera/Lute into the clear of the evening»

In these poems, Arnold Spescha deals with language, with the role of the mother tongue that the world has shown him: "With you / I discovered / the world / you were help / me too / to see / things / and / to name them."
The philosopher Martin Heidegger wrote: "There is no thing where the word is missing, namely the word that calls the thing." Spescha deals with words and their meanings at the level of language and how they come alive in speech. In personal words he says who he is; He also characterizes a "you" and asks himself or herself who he or she is. He writes poems that ask questions: Who? Where? When? Why? And he thinks about words that occupy him again and again: Dancing butterfly, the shadow, burning, deaf, come. The poems are based on grammatical terms, but always lead the reader to the human being.
Our esteemed member Arnold Spescha will bring us closer to the language this afternoon, reading from his latest book from 2023, among other things.
