520 |a Theopoetics represents a reinterpretation of theology which relieves it of its supernaturalism and thereby allows theology to adopt its proper discursive mode and find its proper truth. In theopoetics, the classical distinction between the natural light of reason and the supernatural light of revelation is reinterpreted as a distinction between a prosaic discourse and a poetic one. In the language of phenomenology, a theopoetics is made possible by an epoche which suspends the supernatural attitude in order to allow us to adopt the theopoetic attitude, by a reduction of the supernaturalism in theology which leads us back (reducere) to the matter itself (die Sache selbst) of theology, which is the poetics. The poetics is an alternate discourse which brings to words the lived experience of the call by which we are addressed in the narratives and songs, the figures and the forms of theology's founding texts. The reduction releases these texts from the grip of supernatural assumptions by which they are mystified and distorted. It releases the proper power of these images and narratives, which is not magical or supernatural, but strictly, rigourously theopoetic.
