Metaphysics and eco-phenomenology aiming at the harmony of human life with the cosmos
Francesco Totaro
pp. 25-29
Reflecting about the relationship between the new-classical metaphysics of the Milan school and a radicalized phenomenology such as the ontopoiesis of life can contribute to a "critique of the settled reason," as Tymieniecka said. According to Gustavo Bontadini, philosophy has a double face because it is always in the flux of life but its task is to stop that flux—to search, we could say following Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka's thought, the logos that shows itself in the human phenomenon and especially in his Imaginatio Creatrix, which is able to go beyond the series of events and to give a new impulse to the ontopoiesis of life and its manifestation. From this base, even according to Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka, we could delineate a New Enlightenment as a new project of human civilization in harmony with the earth and cosmos, where logos is unfolding in all the richness of its manifestation and God rises to its highest fullness.
