A DIFFERENCE AND RELATION BETWEEN TRADITIONALISM AND MODERNISM IN THE ARTS
A DIFFERENCE AND RELATION BETWEEN TRADITIONALISM AND MODERNISM IN THE ARTS

Summary/Abstract: With whatever philosophical research one can discover what a philosopher asks about, what it affirms with its knowledge and how it defines life in what kind of experience, Hegel’s philosophy awaits again to become a reaffirmation of the necessity to come again into a focus of philosophical interest. Of course, this philosopher’s thought does not demand the interest as a kind of reanimation from its enclosure and lifelessness. On the contrary, a doubt into philosophical lifelessness, whatever its powerful features may be, must retract nowadays regardless to its authoritative points of departure (Nietzsche, Marx, Kierkegaard, Adorno, Sloterdijk and others). It seems that we think Hegel today in the history of philosophy if it has not been conditioned by the well-known question how one can think after Hegel. If we assume that in the first decades after his death Hegel has been “declared” a burden which philosophy must get rid of, it does not allow a safe passage to the thought leading to an argument that he is a burden.
