Abstract

Poetic Philosophy I is part of a collection of poems written by José Ngola Carlos. This collection contains poems written during the period from 2014 to 2018 in Luanda, Angola. The poems compiled, in each of the volumes of the collection, are presented according to the progressive order of production by the author, obeying as the only criterion, the year in which the poems were written. This first collection is made up of five poems written in 2014 and brings a poetic philosophical approach to the following subjects: presumption, the spontaneity of uncertain life, the now, living and wisdom. The collection was produced with the aim of preserving the poetic works that the author has already written. This objective of the author in no way restricts the use of the poems for entertainment and studies of any kind by any scholars. The attribution of the name that identifies the compilation was due to the fact that the writer understands that Philosophy can be expressed in poetic form. Every poem carries within it a philosophy, a way of seeing the world, feeling it, facing it and conceiving it, however, not all philosophy is poetic. While all poetry is philosophical, not all philosophy is aesthetic. It is under this principle that the author proposes to explore aesthetics in combination with philosophy, when producing this poetic collection.
