Según Bachelard para un lector de poemas la referencia a una doctrina que lleva el nombre tan a menudo mal entendido de fenomenología corre el riesgo de permanecer oscura sin embargo fuera de toda doctrina esa referencia es Clara

According to Bachelard, for a reader of poems, the mention of a doctrine that carries the often misunderstood name of phenomenology runs the risk of remaining obscure. However, outside of any doctrine, that reference is clear. This statement raises an important question about the role of theory and doctrine in the interpretation of art and literature. Are we bound by the constraints of certain philosophical frameworks, or can we approach these works with a sense of openness and fluidity? Bachelard seems to argue for the latter, suggesting that a strict adherence to a particular school of thought may hinder our ability to truly engage with and appreciate the nuances of poetry. In this sense, he invites us to break free from the chains of dogma and embrace a more intuitive and holistic approach to reading and interpreting literature. Perhaps Bachelard is urging us to trust in our own instincts and emotions when encountering a poem, rather than relying solely on the guidance of established theoretical frameworks. In doing so, we can tap into a deeper level of understanding and connection with the artform, allowing for a more authentic and personal experience.
