Bilgelik Şiirleri

by Frithjof Schuon, Mahmut Kanık (Translator)

“Mistik tecrübe bizi şiire götürür. Büyük mistikler, normal insan tecrübesinin ötesinde yatan bir sırrı işaret etmeye çalıştıklarında şiir dilini kullanır. Doğu ve Batı dinlerinin en görkemli eserleri bu mistiklerin ilâhileridir… Frithjof Schuon’un şiirlerinde, düzyazı eserlerinin girift ve karmaşık alimâne cümlelerinin bir hayli uzağında, hasret çeken ruhun sade dualarını terennüm eden bir düşünürü dinliyoruz… Bu duyarlık dolu şiirler, ünlü düşünürü çok farklı bir biçimde ve umulmadık bir açıdan gösteriyor.” Annemarie Schimmel

About the author

Frithjof Schuon was a native of Switzerland born to German parents in Basel, Switzerland. He is known as a philosopher, metaphysician and author of numerous books on religion and spirituality.

Schuon is recognized as an authority on philosophy, spirituality and religion, an exponent of the Religio Perennis, and one of the chief representatives of the Perennialist School. Though he was not officially affiliated with the academic world, his writings have been noticed in scholarly and philosophical journals, and by scholars of comparative religion and spirituality. Criticism of the relativism of the modern academic world is one of the main aspects of Schuon's teachings. In his teachings, Schuon expresses his faith in an absolute principle, God, who governs the universe and to whom our souls would return after death. For Schuon the great revelations are the link between this absolute principle—God—and mankind. He wrote the main bulk of his metaphysical teachings in French. In the later years of his life Schuon composed some volumes of poetry in his mother tongue, German. His articles in French were collected in about twenty titles in French which were later translated into English as well as many other languages.

Çevirisi yüzünden kitabı aylarca bitiremedim. Şiirler hakkında bir şey yazmak istemiyorum zira çeviri eser ve okuyucu arasına giriyor. İlerleyen dönemlerde daha iyi bir çevirisine denk gelirsem en azından yazarın birkaç şiirini daha okumak isterim.
