EUROPE: A NEW BISANZIO
"Europe today is a sham without economic cultural identity."
Stefano Zecchi
Today we feel lie above us, the cloud of a duty which at times becomes overwhelming, and no real motivation to become European final.
a duty imposed, and from which it is difficult to disentangle, if not a form of silent rebellion, but alas, often dressed in gray disillusionment.
What does it mean to be European?
means being part of a continental reality dominated by technology, economic and religious from the idea (and increasingly anachronistic mystified) by a few more next year (and ever present) progress.
whatever we find in our hands is the opportunity to be part, be understood, in a reality that, with good reason, Horkheimer had prophesied the total administration.
We are moving progressively towards a life imagined, supposed. We found accommodation in the can, and we stopped it. Forget
inert with rigor, that every form has an existential sense of possibility linked to the opportunity, the construction of a goal. Of course, how can it be conceivable form of "meaning" where there is just that acceptance of a general non-sense?
answer to this question very sharply Jean Luc Nancy, in "Being singular plural," saying the same nonsense paradoxically raises the questioning of meaning.
The nature of meaning is itself questionable and may act as a subject of theoretical attention, but it can actually be thought of as something of "lost". It would be absurd, an obvious sin creed. The same
believe that something has been lost track of him in a convenient naivete, a profound laziness in all of us Europeans are seriously ill.
The only question we ask is that the nature of value.
If we have not actually lost anything, what we see fail?
Certainly, today, the value that we see become superfluous is tied to human experience.
Mind you, from experience means that sphere which includes in itself all those areas of life, aimed at achieving any form of knowledge. In
forms of traditional societies, is man and not the financial gain, to be the end.
As you approach the expression "Man" will be equally painful to touch a button.
is not understood here in the ordinary sense, which can be regarded as established by many, that is linked to the so-called rights that a "Humanism" would have us believe that he had conquered. Here means the man in his conformation more strictly spiritual, existential figure as directed solely toward improving the knowledge of self and face.
But how do you think of a knowledge that is devoid of its experiential source?
We delude ourselves that it is possible today, precisely because we see the information take precedence over any learning outcome.
Information, by its very nature, is experienced passively absorbed, is imposed.
There is no human effort behind it to the meeting. It 's always a given that we accept and to which we as a possible outcome of the criticism, but nothing else.
information we experience as the only possible reality, as negating of 'authentic experience. So
information has emerged in the era of so-called relativism, where every form of cultural identity is seen to fall headlong into the trash where lie all the other old chimeras.
The point is that Europe itself is a chimera, but without wings.
It looks reminiscent of the ice, and shine of a cold property; covered with thousands of neon signs that are the blunders that it sends to itself and deluded to be alive. This
we are today: men with no experience and no knowledge. Deprived of our spiritual sense. Sick of a corrosive secularism that has made us kneel before the God market.
dogmatic religiosity of Catholicism that is much criticized by the young in Europe, is not unlike that which it itself has become. It has the same characteristics, the same defects. Perhaps one might dare think of reality as the best Catholic, because the nearest human, with its claim Spirit.
Until we put a second floor on the value of the individual (truly understood and not misunderstood) and consider the spirit as only a romantic and I remember them sovrapporremo the economy (by making it the policy of the more traditional sense of the term), we shall move in a world ever more barbaric, linked to direct material needs to utter dissolution of our culture.
Here we revealed the Kali Yuga.
Anxiety is a human condition that requires now more than ever, precisely because it is a push, a weapon we possess.
not my intention to achieve outcomes moralistic, but rather to bring attention to the importance of morality (something quite different) may have for us today, where each person puts their being in the world as an opportunity for research and not as the 'acceptance of the rules that do not belong.
Our Europe, suffering from anxiety, fall asleep by drinking his last drug.
We will move on this New Byzantium in search of our breath.
