Abstract
This article examines the motif of the hut in the work of Paul Celan and J. H. Prynne, as a metaphor for poetry which also mediates the relationship between poetry, language and place. Both Prynne and Celan’s use of the hut motif intersects with the role played by huts in work by Martin Heidegger, but this article demonstrates, through close reading of poems by Prynne and Celan, that both develop Heidegger’s understanding of the hut with reference to the ethical imperatives which underpin linguistic (and especially poetic) production.
Dieser Beitrag untersucht das Motiv der Hütte in der poetischen Arbeit Paul Celans und J. H. Prynnes als Metapher des poetischen Denkens und als Vermittler zwischen Dichtung, Sprache und Ort. Es bestehen deutliche Überschneidungen zwischen dem Gebrauch des Hüttenmotivs bei Prynne und bei Celan und der von Hütten gespielten Rolle im Werk Martin Heideggers. Mithilfe von Gedichtanalysen wird dieser Beitrag jedoch zeigen, dass Prynne und Celan Heideggers Hüttenmotiv mit Bezug auf die für die sprachliche (und insbesondere für die poetische) Produktion grundlegenden ethischen Imperative weiterentwickeln.
