Bit vremena i zadaća mišljenja u filozofiranju Vanje Sutlića
The Essence of our Time and the Task of Thinking in Vanja Sutlić’s Philosophy

Summary/Abstract: The question of contemporaneity of philosophy, which is thought as the co-existence with the time itself, is not aimed at some period within the history of philosophy, but at the question of philosophy itself. With such a question philosophy asks, distinguishes and judges itself, and thus essentially determinates itself in the entirety of the historical frame. The period of contemporary philosophy, viewed in the sense of self-contemplation, is thus judged as a period of the crisis of philosophy. Sutlić consider that s the reason is the inability of philosophy to orientate itself in the essence of time. In the prevalent crisis of our time, philosophy has a task to distinguish and to judge its potentiality. The reason for the inability of philosophy to orientate itself in the essence of time should, therefore, be sought for in the very potentiality of everything that is, as well as philosophy itself. The question of potentiality, of the origin of everything that is, aims to solve the crisis of philosophy. Problematizing worldly problems in that sense does not provide a solution. By asking the question about the essence of everything that is, in other words, asking essentially, is a solution to the crisis and the beginning of the reversion to the primeval reality, to a new way of thinking that thinks from the history itself.
