BIFURCATING FOUNDATIONALISM OF THE PHILOSOPHICAL MODERNITY IN PECTORE: PERSISTENT LABILITY OF THE HYPOKEIMENON-ATOMON JOINTURE

Summary/Abstract: The primary desiderata of the modern epistemological metanarrative eventually hinges on the reflexively founded certainty and universality of human knowledge. The retrospective reconstruction of the conceptual underpinnings of this modernity’s project dwells on the reinterpretation of Cartesian subjectum, posited as an epistemological ego, in terms of not only Heideggerian hypokeimenon, but also of Habermasian atomon, understood as a performative constituent of the modern nuclear individuality. While hypokeimenon pinpoints the irreducible performativity of the epistemological ego, its atomon determinant unveils the agneological and solipsistic nature of modern epistemology. It is the agneological performativity of the modern anthropocentrical epistemology that serves as an ultimate basis for the systematic disclosure of the unified epistemic potential of modern knowledge, unfolded along the isomorphic lines of the metaphilosophical presumptions of ego cogito and universal pretensions of empirical natural philosophy. Thus the question how to establish the certainty of reliable human knowledge on the ground of reflexive self-understanding of the epistemological ego stands as the ultimate basis of the par excellence agneological modern philosophy. The metaphilosophical performation of the epistemological ego is unremittingly replicated as a warrant, expression and fortune of the persistent lability of modern Western philosophy, its ineradicably agneological posture.
