MODERNITATEA CA NEUZEIT LA HANS BLUMENBERG
MODERNITY AS NEUZEIT IN HANS BLUMENBERG

Summary/Abstract: In this article I will focus on Blumenberg`s vision of modernity in what concerns the historical process that ended up with formation of its identity. In this operation, there are two major actions: the first is the aparent absurde claim that sees modernity as an absolute beggining, with no corelation with the past; and the second states that modernity, through plurality and efective creations, gives important reason to be a real neu zeit (new time). Both motion are for Blumengerg historical determinations: the modernity creates some determinations and, in the next step, it applies all these determinations. By both, the modernity avoids dogmaticism and becomes the most important epoch of all time.
