Phenomenology: a meeting between Plato and Aristoteles

I hope very sincerely that somebody has red Phenomenology of Spirit from Hegel; I think that nobody has read this book is very difficult and, sometime, boring, I admit that it is very difficult, but it is Hegel philosophy. But I want write this essay about my opinion on Phenomenology, because I think that this book has in itself Plato and Aristoteles, but why? A paragraph says: “…the first supersensitive word is copy of real word...”; this is Plato because he spoken about Word of ideas and this concept is modern translation of Word of ideas, where everything is present and in fact mankind found again on the word images and other that he has seen in the Ideas word. Hegel continuing to this opinion says also: “…The first word supersensitive, in fact it was perceived word immediately…because copy, it has had his model in this perceived word…”, the word “copy” is same used from Plato, mimesis(μίμέσίς); then it is a Plato’s think that Hegel has translated on Absolut spirit. But Aristoteles, where is? Second philosopher, this is Aristoteles is present for speculative reality, this is ability of mankind to see and consider reality, perception of real word, in fact he says: “the sensible certainty shows itself as acknowledge more rich; “in fact it is impossible that we set an external border, for space and time…”; it is criterion for acknowledge of Aristoteles, this is sensible reality and then reality, through philosophical speculation. Then in the first book of Hegel has addresses both Aristoteles and Plato, and he, after this book continues for Absolut spirit and he, naturally, sees it on God.

Forger

Edward was a very clever forger and painter, he falsified everything, sculpture, artisanship and above all pictures; but it is strange, all was legal, because he described his pictures false, rather he written about these works and he was selling it very easily; he was very capable. He organized exposition for his works and other authors, he was the first event organizer, and he was everywhere, every capital in the word has had an exposition for his works. He was very generous for his colleagues he, often, was selling works other painters. He loved very much Caravaggio, Italian painter at 17^th century, he loved this painter, very realistic, for passion; he has falsified every pictures of Caravaggio; he copied all except drawing because these are not, until now. He talked on the street and he looked an exhibition of paintings, he was very much astonish because he didn’t know about this exposition; then he entered and looked his catalogue, this is his paintings and he asked a guy there present, and he was painting: “Excuse me, but these paintings are mine”, the painter turned to Edward and answered: “No, absolutely, this painting his your, and he indicated a picture that was “Martyrdom of Saint Matthew”, and Edward answered: “That is a painting of Caravaggio, no certainly mine”, and painter answered: “You are failing because that is Edward but this painting is mine”, Edward recognized very soon face of Caravaggio, and in fact he asked: “Are you Caravaggio?”, and he answered: “No I am Edward but you are certainly Caravaggio, it is sufficient you look yourself on the mirror”, and he looked himself and seen face of Caravaggio, he laughed and he took one brush; he started a painting but he tough a figure and he painted other, a figure of Caravaggio; he was astonish, and he asked explication: “Why?”, and other painter answered: “You have copied always my paintings, then your personality now is not; you have to develop your personality, on contrary you have developed others and you have lost your soul”. Two costumers entered in gallery and looked the copy that Edward was painting, and man of this couple looked and said: “Perfect copy of Caravaggio”, while his husband looked other painter and his picture and said: “it’s true Edward! very good".

Eclecticism best method?

This essay looks about philosophical method that I think fit to interpretation everything or at last most of phenomenology, that is around us. I am convinced supporter of eclecticism, this is every method is opportune to interpreter; we can think reality for different philosophical think, we can think to Socrates and his  maieutic method, so that they can find their trust, or skepticism of Carneades or Phyrro; then I judge history of art for single artist, for economical richness and, above all, for costumer. I think that this method is perfect for interpretation of reality, because every phenomenology has explication and we can use every method of philosophy then think and to interpret the reality, it’s cultural or other nature; for example, we can think a behavior of man of our friend to Attualismo, this is philosophical current of Giovanni Gentile, that says: “That I am now I not was a minute ago”, and we must consider also the psychologist science, that is, for me, bet method for interpretation of this sudden change. But we can use also philosophical think. The interpretation of reality we can use the speculative think of Aristoteles or Idealism of Hegel, the Platonism or all together; because the eclecticism takes everything and can explain everything for a philosophical method, economic, cultural and human. We can think everything for every think and we can consider human reality or metaphysical and to use every think that we consider fit to interpretation. Then I think that is useless use a current to think because this think could not give answers, then we can think other current, and this is eclecticism.

Other thinks of law

This essay surely doesn’t and won’t to consider some rule or article of law, but it want consider some step of law with philosophical think; in fact I have took some step of Outlines of philosophy of right, that is one book of Hegel that considers the law, or at last some particular step, with philosophical concept, then the contract is, according to opinion of Hegel, the contract is: “If to them there is need, benevolence and utility, that is hastens them to contract is that they are present, their presence is principal motive, then they must recognize them self on contract. As concept of property, that according opinion of Hegel is a moment when owner is present both human gender and according to opinion of law. These concepts are certainly elementary and obvious but if we consider it philosophical thinks also, these realities of law take other mean”, and around the contract again he says: “I can leave one property as an external thing and I must leave it as a conceptual property…”, and “But at this moment my will is other because it is devoid (of property); then this concept is unity of two will, and twice for the differences must waive of he self; but this identity of twice will is obvious that every will is he self also”, and: “This rapport is mediation of two identical will although different for owner themselves, it means that every one for his will ceases his property, and one become it”. Solution of this concept that is legislative always, certainly, but is also other think for philosophy because: “the mediation of will to cease a property and will to accept it, then of another is final result of two will, because one is present because other is.” I repeat this is obvious but to law is very difficult give this mean to a legislative, this is philosophical mean.

Artistic Platonism

The treatise of Federico Zuccari, an Italian painter, that has written the Idea of painters, sculptors and architects and this treatise was edited at 1607, is one example about Catholic Reform but with some think from Platoon; this is evident in some step when author says: “I say that drawing isn’t mater, isn’t substance, but it is form, and idea”, this first step is necessary to understand that Zuccari uses that he has perceived he written about inner driving of angel and he saying about creation of word, he has synthetized steps of Genesis, God has depicted and worked everything, but he has worked other word in head of angel, with everything; this is a typical concept of Platonic philosophy, everything is present in head of human gender, and through time and experience everything resurfaces to head, but just we have in head.  Zuccari said again: “God very accomplished cause so that they were perfect both regard nature and to understand and to work and he worked other word that was thinkable to angels”, this is concept is pure Platonism; in fact in Platonism philosophy this word is material projection from ideas word, but now angels look this word because they can look this word alone. Zuccari is continuing with his Platonism says: “Since we know very much thing although different forms and they are in our head, although if we will know something we must work an image a drawing, necessary for to become it understandable, and we use these drawing”. This concept is philosophical that we can call hyperuranium is told by Platoon in two book, this is Republic and Fedrus; that Zuccari could have known trough nearness to Jesuitical order, then very intellectual men in Catholic order; Zuccari decorated a chapel in the church of Jesuitical order in Rome, and then he could have known Platoon trough some Jesuitical theologian. More he attended also Vatican cathedral for a commission, then he could has been informed regard to Platoon and his philosophical think.

Hegel and Heraclitus two absolute spirits

The opposites whose become is explained for their hide harmony; everything changes his nature, therofore: cold becomes hot and hot things become cold; young becomes old, life died; this contrast is also harmony war is peace too. Other fragment of Heraclitus he tells: “Then ignorant don’t know that every different thing agrees with itself, unhalt becomes sweet halt, hunger makes satiety sweet, furthermore same Hegel said: “Every word of Heraclitus I have took for my logic”. This is origin of harmony for opposites in absolute spirit, that in union of this absolute spirit, that is conceptual derivation form Think of think of Aristoteles, that has collected all and contrary of all, therefore Hegel got from Aristoteles and Heraclitus and he makes unity between two philosophical different addresses, this is he makes harmony between contraries, then Hegel becomes absolute spirit that has made harmony between contraries.

Heritage of human religion

“The Greek religion is to his characters or peculiarities a natural religion, so long as gods are represented for much gods as natural nature and they have one step more than of human gender; then human gender doesn’t need rise for relate to god, rather he feels joint for his own natural. A god doesn’t asks a change of his nature, he doesn’t asks a change of his think and natural tendencies; rather that is natural to human gender is same to a god as right, so is man must make that is accordant to human nature, this mention (E. Zeller, The philosophy of ancient Greek during his historical development)explains what is nature of human religion, and it anticipates the partial humanization of Cristian God, because also God is seized with anger; then men must make that is right, that is natural nature of men and they adhere to will of gods; on contrary in ancient Egypt that rapport to gods was different, were priests and rapport was by this persons, Until now is evident and very known all, but my reflection goes beyond; because rapport to gods was direct, it was natural and then the gods are determined by human gender, at least in ancient Greek, they are human with divine characters, but they are human, that is confirmation of think of Feurbach, the man has created gods, because it is a translation of human characters to divine; on contrary Christianism has alone humanized God and showed more good and indulgent, but it is Greek heritage, this is to make human God but he keeps always his divine nature and he could be also severe, that is Greek heritage, this is very good or severe; then human gender must changes his nature to conformity of orders od God, but Greek religion gods were human just. The Christianism has took some character of Greek religion, this is human nature, but has kept the divine nature typical of Hebrew religion.
