Poetry and Quantum Physics: Towards the Same Realism?

This chapter focuses on the concept of reality in Adonis’ poetry and the theoretical physics developed by Basarab Nicolescu.  Do they conceive reality in the same way?  In  this  brief comparison, I seek to show that, despite different languages, poetry and quantum physics tend towards the same realism, namely the deep conviction of a veiled Real manifesting itself under numerous faces.  These  two  activities  that  aim  to  know and reflect reality are based on how we live our relationships with all forms and at all scales of life. Consequently, they depend on both the object as an absolute entity and the subject who lives it, that is, on the subject-object connection.  Beyond this famous relativism which is not the only criterion for the quantum and poetic conception of reality, the main debate, which will be mine in this article, concerns the absolute existence of the objective reality and therefore the way to access and describe it.
