The text proposes to decipher the titular poem by Zbigniew Herbert from the viewpoint of phenomenological and mystical philosophy. In this approach Studium przedmiotu constitutes a study on phenomenological perception that leads to the borders of philosophy. We are dealing with an attempt at description by means of the via negativa method – an ecstatic “source” perception. Herbert was capable of concentrating elements of thought and apophatic spirituality within the language of the poetic metaphor, as if in a lens. Within the process of a transition of perception from Dasein to Sein there emerges the experience of source emptiness opening the perception of “all sides” of objects linked into a “single stream of light”. In this manner the techne of perception discloses the truth of being (aletheia), in which the mute “speech of a chair”, like a bridge, possesses the power of expressing the Heideggerian das Geviert: the unity of Earth, sky, mortals and divinities.
