Theorien und Dinge
by Willard Van Orman Quine, Joachim Schulte
Quine vermag uns zu überraschen. Nicht nur, weil er die sonst vielfach trocken wirkenden Probleme von Sprachphilosophie und philosophischer Logik mit anschaulichen Formulierungen, treffenden Beispielen und verblüffenden Bildern lebendig zu machen versteht, sondern weil er überdies imstande ist, längst gesichert und abgetan geglaubten Themen neue Fragen und vor allem unvorhergesehene Antworten abzugewinnen. Neben Erörterungen technischlogischer Begründungsfragen, bei denen Quines mustergültige Klarheit und sein Verzicht auf einschüchterndes Brimborium erfrischend zu unvermuteten Einsichten verhelfen, finden sich in diesen Abhandlungen Auseinandersetzungen mit der Geschichte der Philosophie, namentlich des Empirismus, sowie kritische Darstellungen der Gedankenwelt Russells, Austins, Smarts, Goodmans, Gödels und Lewis Carrolls. Gleichsam nebenbei, doch nie als Nebensache, werden prinzipielle Probleme behandelt, etwa die Kontextabhängigkeit philosophischer Fragestellungen, und es werden ausgefallene Aspekte allgemeiner Begriffe deutlich gemacht, etwa die Rolle von Metaphern bei der Entwicklung wissenschaftlich fruchtbarer Ideen.

Buch der Dinge
Gedichte
by Aleš Šteger, Urška P. Cerne, Matthias Göritz, Matthias Göritz
»Nicht für jedes Ding gibt es ein Wort«, vermeldet das Große Wörterbuch der slowenischen Sprache. Aleš Šteger, als Reisender in vielen Sprachen und Ländern zu Hause, Autor mehrerer Gedichtbände und einer Reiseprosa über Peru und César Vallejo, stellt diese Einsicht seinem neuen Lyrikband als Motto voran. Doch es fehlt nicht nur an Worten. Wie seine streng gebauten, leichtfüßigen Texte, 50 Gedichte, zeigen, haben wir schon das Selbstverständliche nie richtig kennengelernt: Büroklammer, Seife, Zahnstocher (»dieser kleine Robespierre im Maul des Polyphem «), Regenschirm, Hut und Fußmatte. In Štegers Gedichten werden sie aufgerufen und treten uns, dem Allgemeinbegriff entschlüpft, entgegen; sie stellen Fragen, die zu groß sind für so kleine Dinge. Unklare, sich verwandelnde Seinsformen wie Ei, Wurst und Schokolade machen stutzig. Das Brot offenbart seinen sadomasochistischen Charakter: »Ja, ja, es liebt dich, deshalb nimmt es jetzt dein Messer in sich auf. / Es weiß, daß sich all seine Wunden in deiner Hand verkrümeln. « – Nicht zur Benennung der Dinge fehlen uns die Worte, sondern für die Antworten, die wir ihnen schuldig sind.
