Description
Summary:In the article, we will try to present the fundamental meaning and significance of philosophizing, more precisely the philosophical act, of the Christian thinker Josef Pieper. He sees the reason for the revitalization of antique and medieval philosophy in the possibility of a far-wider understanding of the entirety of the world which concerns the entirety of being in all its (non)occurrence. While contemporary philosophy held debates on the truth between hermeneutic and analytical philosophy, Pieper remains loyal to his antique and medieval teachers, especially Plato and Aquinas. Although Pieper’s thought is deeply imbued with thoughts of the said two, it is in no way, which is the aim this article, limited to the mere repetition or compilation of what was said long ago. In this regard, Pieper argues that a tradition, such as the Platonic and the Thomist, can be an example to all other traditions, and serve as the real model of human rational philosophical research, and philosophizing as a possibility of divine-human event in search of the truth.
