To breathe with the other. Ethics and eco-socialist perspective in the poetry of Jorge Riechmann.

Resumen

Author of more than 25 poetry collections and plaquettes, along with an extensive set of essays on poetry, philosophy, politic and ecology (composed almost fifty monographs and books in collaboration; some of them reference books), in the poetry of Jorge Riechmann (Madrid, 1962) engaged harmoniously an inexhaustible revelation intention, conscious of the fragility of an elusive beauty, and a deep socio-economic critique of the world, warning about the ecological crisis (which, as he notes, have always conceived as socio-ecological crisis, product of the crisis of civilization in which we are living in). It does this through a synthesis based on lexical accuracy, declarative clarity, philosophical inquiry and symbolic exemplification of a different ethic prevailing based on empathy, the expansion of the moral community to include the rest of sentient beings and the awareness of the limits and vulnerability of all life.

In this article are analyzed the main lines of thought that, since this approach, cross all the poetry of Jorge Riechmann and also the perspective of transformation that moves him and ethical and policy proposals that are expressed and developed in his verses to change the society.
