Nieciągłość myślenia w filozofii Emila Ciorana
Discontinuity of thinking in Emil Cioran’s philosophy

Summary/Abstract: The paper is an interpretation of discontinuity as it is presented in Cioran’s aphoristic philosophy. The beginning of the analysis is an indication of the temperament as the main source of Cioran’ philosophy. A philosophy derived from temperament cannot contain the moment of reflection understood as an attempt to distance oneself from the directly experienced truth of being. Due to the secondary character of the language, such philosophy is doomed to incomplete communication. Cioran’s philosophy is therefore a compromise between direct but non-communicative scream and alienated jargon of traditional philosophy. Discontinuous thinking, devoid of rules, does not care about immanent contradictions and the possibility of interrupting inference, but rather is perceived as a kind of entanglement reflecting the temperament of the philosopher. This means the creation of method of communication whose main determinants are indeterminacy and uncontrollability.
