The theses are based on Gogacz’s metaphysical concepts. The second part compares Gogacz`s philosophy of poetry with the concepts of the poetry by Jacques Maritain and the literary scholar Michael Edwards. According to Gogacz, poetic situation is the the basis of poetry . A poet is a person endowed with poetic sensitivity. Poetic sensitivity is the ability to perceive poetic situations. The poetic situation exists regardless of the poet’s psyche. The poet uses words and metaphors to describe the poetic situation he encounters in his life. The specificity of the poetic situation is the simultaneous integral perception of real and thought relations.
