Can anyone tell me where Heidegger said what he said on poiesis according to this article? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.46.17.59 (talk) 08:28, 18 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The Heidegger reference is to page 10 of his essay, "The Question Concerning Technology" (QCT and Other Essays, trans. William Lovitt, 1977, Garland). Silverquick (talk) 22:39, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This page needs work. I have a Masters in political theory and sometimes read philosophy for a hobby and the whole page is incomprehensible to me. I have no idea what Poiesis means after reading this. 193.36.20.132 (talk) 08:19, 20 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I totally agree. This page is terrible. It's filled with meaningless gibberish, like "an action that transforms and continues the world" and "poïetic work reconciles thought with matter and time". I have no idea what, if anything, those statements are supposed to mean. This page should be rewritten by someone who knows how to use language to clearly communicate ideas.

I agree with the previous comments: this page is largely unintelligible. Not only that, but is poiesis even a word? Two of the most reputable online English Dictionaries (dictionary.com and m-w.com) indicate that it is only used to form compound words and not itself a word. If people want to keep this entry, then fine, but I think that there should at least be a note indicating that its status as an English word is not certain. 74.71.76.34 (talk) 03:22, 1 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
