| Resumo: | William Desmond´s metaxological thought tries to go beyond the erotic origins of the Hegelian Absolute. For Desmond, the origin is an overdetermined excess that cannot be circumscribed by the dialectical circle of Hegel´s Absolute. Instead of the mediation of the whole with itself, Desmond conceives of a plurivocal metaxological intermediation of the Absolute that both mediates with itself as well as intermediates with its others. It goes beyond all Eros of a complete conceptual determination of being. Thought should recognize those more originating sources of wonder to which our mindfulness is indebted. This makes room to Philosophy's others: Religion and Theology. |
