La relation infinie - Tome 1 les arts et les sciences

Résumé
--
A renowned author, non-violent activist and talented artist, Lanza del Vasto (1901-1981) is not yet established as a philosopher. Yet his work and his actions are based on a deep and original philosophy, which focuses on the concept of Relation. Defended as his doctoral thesis in Pisa in 1928, completed by thousands of reflections confided by the author to his private notebooks, his thinking has extraordinary scope and incontestable coherency. However, until now, it had not been the subject of a synthetic study. The first volume explores the aesthetics of Lanza del Vasto: his theory of sensitivity and genius, his vision of the major arts (painting, music, poetry), and his conception of Eros as the art of loving. It then turns to rational knowledge: intelligence and the sciences. From mathematics and abstract knowledge (space, time, movement) to biology and physical science (matter, energy, living beings), a remarkably unified vision of the world emerges. The second volume highlights the theoretical principles on which his philosophy is based. Like all his thinking, Lanza del Vasto's metaphysics are compound, spanning from the inner pole (the self) to the exterior pole (the being) by way of an 'alternate' link (the Relation). A critical discussion with the philosophies of Descartes, Kant and Hegel is engaged. The broad vision presented here is based on previously unpublished texts, translated from the original. A highly constructed reflection is revealed, clearly and elegantly expressed, by a man who deserves to be considered as one of the great thinkers of the 20th century.
