Se trata de la autopresentación que el autor hizo de su tesis doctoral, publicada, después en la Editorial Königshausen, de Würzsburg.

Der Einblick in die Geschichte der Entgegensetzung von Gutem und Schlechtem vermittelt nicht nur die einzelnen Stationen der Auseinandersetzung mit diesem Problem, sondern erörtert es auch unter sachlichen Gesichtspunkten. Wenngleich jede Entgegensetzung einen den entgegenzustellenden Gliedern gemeinsamen Bezugspunkt fordert, lassen sich Gutes und Schlechtes weder einer gemeinsamen Gattung unterordnen, noch als Gattungen in irgendeinem Sinne begreifen. Trotzdem sind Gutes und Schlechtes einander entgegengesetzt. Dies zeigt, daß die Entgegensetzung nicht nur ,,eine Sache" des Denkens ist, sondern auch von der Seinsstruktur beider (...) Glieder abhängt. Diese Entgegensetzung ist zudem als eine Wesenszusammengehörigkeit zu deuten, die mit der Entgegensetzung von Sein und Nichts wesenhaft verknüpft ist. (shrink)

Retomando el momento definitivo en los estudios viquianos que constituyó el aniversario del nacimiento de Vico , se rastrea la importancia de los principales momentos anteriores y los consecuentemente posteriores. Principalmente, la actualidad de Vico se presenta en su sesgo de fundador de la filosofía de la historia, que puede presentarse como una concepción escatológica, de la dinámica de ésta, en la que se articulan religión e historia, imprescindible para comprender el pensamiento histórico contemporáneo posthistorista. La misma actualidad de Vico (...) se patentiza en su sobrevivencia al historismo.Turning again to the definitive moment in Vichian studies which was the anniversary of Vico’s birth , we investigate the importance of the principle moments before and after the anniversary. Principally, the contemporariness of Vico is shown by his position as the founder of the Philosophy of History, which can be presented as being of eschatological conception of the dynamics of History, in which religion and history are united, an invaluable step in understanding contemporary historical and post-historicist thought. The very contemporariness of Vico is evident by him surviving historicism. (shrink)
