Abstract

This article investigates the crucial role of Max Bense’s literary production within his philosophical system. Drawing on the concept of hybrid authorship, the contribution analyzes the compositional strategies of the collection Bestandteile des Vorüber (1961), which emerges as an unsystematic attempt to generate a form of poetry from logic through non-digital writing techniques. Building on this analysis, the paper examines the characteristics of the ‘Artificial’ in Bense’s poetics and the extent to which such a conception reshapes the configuration of authorial subjectivity.
