Abstract

The role of language stands on the mere possibility of entering to every change on man, a possibility that language presents itself; however, language is not only produced and determined by men but it's a dialogue between men and world; language gives itself to be known and marks the field of knowledge which the Being has an entry to. The present text settles an approach to poetic language as opening, dispositionality and foundation of world departing form a Greek viewpoint, a Greek epic and poetry on which a philosophical viewpoint focuses; the latter shall take different features from the expression of Greek being. In order to that, this text will be divided into two theme axes and a final consideration. In the first instance, a dialogue between World and man, departing from which knowledge fields on him are consolidated, will be alluded to. In the second instance, the Greek poetry language will be considered through German poet and writer Friedrich Hôlderlin's viewpoint and will be based on Homer's Iliad and Hesiod's Theogony. This essay is concluded by settling language as a constitutive structure of being-located-in-the-world as understood by Martin Heidegger.
