Philosophie - Philosophie du XXe siècle

“Ainsi toute la Philosophie est comme un arbre, dont les racines sont la Métaphysique, le tronc est la Physique, et les branches qui sortent de ce tronc sont toutes les autres sciences…“

This Cartesian scala praedicamentalis still re-presents the fundamental/ist traits of (western) philosophy with

• a clear Grund with meta-physics as its roots
• a set of narratives that constitute this foundation
• and various disciplines, embedded in fragmentary dualities.

As the roots nourish the tree, we share its hierarchical ontology: meta-physics. In order to de-form this arborescent symmeTree, the Grund is replaced by weak metaphysics- while the former represents the linear strive towards the ou-topian further (no future), the latter is the beyond (paradise now). While meta-physics has violent answers, metaphysics poses no(n-violent)questions. Evidently, this attempt requires an abandonement of the pleasant path of discursive/sym-metrical theory:

Thus, in a second step the homogeneous roots are extracted by means of manifold rhizomes; eventual comPositions give way to event-ual and, therefore, non-violent TRANSitions.

Zielsetzung und Themenschwerpunkte (Objectives and Key Themes)

This treatise aims to overcome "the disguising of process under product" and expose axiomatic pretentions. It is a work in progress, rejecting a progressive approach, and utilizes Adorno's Bindestrich-Philologie to deconstruct symmetrical theories. The text explores a variety of concepts and philosophical ideas, moving beyond traditional boundaries and embracing a state of insecurity and vagueness.

• Metaphysics and the rejection of axiomatic pretentions
• The limitations of symmetrical theories and the pursuit of asymmetrical perspectives
• The concept of "the sea" as a symbol of insecurity and the abandonment of established boundaries
• The importance of a hermeneutical approach to understanding and interpretation
• The exploration of philosophical concepts and their application to various fields of knowledge

Zusammenfassung der Kapitel (Chapter Summaries)

The first part of the treatise, La Philosophie [Comme Un Arbre]: _Scala Praedicamentalis_, delves into the roots and trunk of philosophical thought. It begins with an examination of the concepts of "via, veritas et vita" in the context of metaphysics, exploring the concept of the "Grund" and the nature of reality. The chapter on (R)Evolution explores the potential for change and transformation within philosophical frameworks. The second part, ÜBERSTIEG? _ROOT EXTRACTION_, focuses on the rupture of traditional philosophical systems and the search for new understandings. It explores the concept of "tertium datur," questioning binary oppositions and seeking alternative perspectives. The chapter on "Trans: Port" explores various interpretations and methodologies for navigating this new philosophical landscape.
