La estética cuántica:Juan Larrea, Niels Bohr y el tercero incluido

Abstract

This essay explores notable coincidences in Juan Larrea’s poetics with some cen-tral points in quantum physics, such as, the correlation between the search in his inner self and the investigations on the atom taking place during the first decades of the twentieth-century, between leaving aside the monolithic subjectivity in favor of a universal and collective Spirit and the «entangled» observer in the cosmic web, object of his/her obser-vation, in modern physics, and, particularly, the role of the French language in dealing with the conflict with Western dualisms and their possible resolution in Bohr’s principle of complementarity, a parallel of Basarab Nicolescu’s theory of the hidden third.
