Abstract

The article proposes a problematization of communicational thought viewed from the angle of a poetical thought. Communication is seen here from a principle of mediation called com principle. Creator of realities, poetry is also reason and thought, supplier of the com principle, a complex force that awakens, animates and moves. The text starts showing the historical break between a scientificrational mode of knowledge and a poetic knowledge that is rapidly put aside of scientific reflections. The text develops the communicational thought that underlies reflection and presents poetry as a thought that must enrich the thought of communication. This brings to surface some epistemological questionings that are not solved here, but initially highlighted as proposals.
