MENDOZA SOLIS, Emiliano. Abysmal Language: The Mystic of the Language in Walter Benjamin. Acta poét [online]. 2013, vol.34, n.1, pp.157-176. ISSN 2448-735X.

In his early essay On Language as such and on the Language of Man (1916) Benjamin states the most important aspects related to a theory of language. His idea of language is based on the examination of the spiritual contents of man and his relation with his linguistic self. This distinction leads the theory to remain on the abyss that nests in the interior of the spiritual entity of language. The abyss element brings about a revelation or a principal (arché) related to the mysticism of language.

Palabras llave : Walter Benjamin; language; mystic; abyss.
