Klappentext zu „The World Explored, the World Suffered “
The Juggernaut of War and Economics has flattened our philosophical landscape-transformed it into a cultural wasteland in which facts and information lie strewn about the world like dead bodies. The mother of the Juggernaut was the Minotaur from the Platonic cave and the father was Janus, the two-faced four-eyed monster that guarded the territory of Roman tyrants. A number of Philosophers throughout the age have complained about our forgetfulness of the many meanings of Being. We seem, as a consequence, no longer able to view the world "uno solo ochiata"in contemplative mood. The philosophical attitudes of awe and wonder of the Ancient Greeks and the Enlightenment Philosophy of Kant have been inverted into the"modern"moods of terror and boredom. Volume three charts the meandering course of 20th century philosophical history in search for a name for what we otherwise call "Modern". Hylomorphic and Critical Philosophy are our guides on this tour in search of signs of the Progress Kant claimed is present on our cultural journey.
