Poetry is the Form of Mind? Some Considerations on a Recent George Manacorda’s Essay

Abstract

Giorgio Manacorda’s researches led him to affirm that the poetry is the form of mind. Delving into his conclusions, one notice that the subject he presents offers to the reader a lot of new, stimulating perspectives of analysis. Thus I wonder what poetry really is, what is the function of the metaphor, and how the new tecnologies could influence our (metaphorical, i.e. poetic) world view.
