What makes philosophy metaphysical? Understood as the search for truth, philosophy has led those seeking it to the question of Being, says Gunter Figal. He shows that because this devotion to truth and Being are the heart of metaphysics, it is what makes up philosophy?s metaphysical character. Figal embraces this, and, leaving arguments for simple affirmation aside, offers instead a critical discussion of the positions adopted by metaphysical philosophy?s founding fathers, Parmenides, Plato and Aristotle. Alongside a phenomenological transformation of the latter?s ontology, Figal also sets out why he regards metaphysics as just one philosophical perspective among others, and not as a dominating `first philosophy?. The outcome is philosophy as a de-centered, non-hierarchical and liberating project.

Paperback. Etat : New. Motivated by the question of what it is that makes philosophy philosophical, Günter Figal shows that philosophy as the search for truth leads to the question of Being. And that if devotion to truth and Being are at the heart of 'metaphysics', then this is philosophy's metaphysical character. Figal embraces this concept and rejects 'post-metaphysical' philosophy's assumption, and likewise Nietzsche and Heidegger's claim, that metaphysics has come to an end. By refraining from simply affirming the metaphysical tradition founded by Parmenides, Plato and Aristotle, the author instead critically discusses the positions held by its three founding fathers. Paying special attention to Aristotle, Figal transforms his ontology phenomenologically. By doing so, he argues for a rehabilitation of appearing and perceptible things and thus for a revaluation of perceptive experience. Figal also prefers to regard metaphysics as one philosophical perspective among others - aesthetics, ethics and mysticism - and not the dominating 'first philosophy' it has long been regarded as. According to Günter Figal, philosophy proves to be a de-centered, non-hierarchical and therefore liberal intellectual project. N° de réf. du vendeur LU-9783161557347

Kl.-8°, Brosch. IX, 177 S. Neuwertiges Ex. / Fine Copy // Günter Figal zeigt, dass die Philosophie mit der Suche nach Wahrheit beginnt, sich in dieser Suche die Frage nach dem Sein des Seienden entwickelt und sich schließlich als `Metaphysik` etabliert. Figal verteidigt die Metaphysik und reformuliert sie zugleich phänomenologisch. Er plädiert außerdem dafür, die Metaphysik als eine philosophische Perspektive unter anderen zu verstehen.
