The exile between metaphysics and geography
The exile between metaphysics and geography

Summary/Abstract: The experience of exile represents a fundamental condition, a strongly motivated archetype. Birth itself is a sign of the original sin and driving away, and it is synonymous with the daybreak of the biography of evil in the world. The curve drawn from the exile of creature to the exile of creation tends to close into a perfect circle. When myth or religion missed the occasion of solving the problem of uprooting, philosophy assumed the helm. Released from the normative cage, the new philosophical thinking looks now for more relaxed solutions. It seems that only an ethics of weakening and a behavior as living in the internal dimension of time, and not "just like at the beginning of the world", represent a chance to the exiled writer, thus he has the occasion to live his craftsmanship like a merry dissemination, without the compulsion of a hard center. While he lives into an alternative history, even a protective one, he rejects the understanding of his own tragedy and continues to live for ever backwards of time.
