Logos of phenomenology and phenomenology of the logos. Book two, The human condition in-the-unity-of-everything-there-is-alive : individuation, self, person, self-determination, freedom, necessity

The human being is today at the center of scientific, social, ethical and philosophical debates. __The Human Condition-in-the-unity-of-everything-there-is-alive__, under whose aegis the present selection of essays falls, offers the urgently needed new approach to reinvestigating humanness. While recent advances in the neurosciences, genetics and bio-engineering challenge the traditional abstract conception of "human nature", indicating its transformability, thus putting in question the main tenets of traditional philosophical anthropology, in the new perspective of the __Human Creative Condition__ the human individual is seen in its emergence and unfolding within the dynamic networks of the __logos of life__, and within the evolution of living types. Just the same, the __creative logos__ of the mind lifts the human person into a sphere of freedom. Within the networks of the logos we retrieve the classical principles – human subject, ego, self, body, soul, person – reinterpret them to counter the naturalistic critique (Tymieniecka). Thus principles of a new philosophical anthropology satisfying the requirements of the present time are laid down.

Situated at the crossroads of nature and culture, physics and consciousness, cosmos and life, history {u2013} intimately conjoined with time {u2013} continues to puzzle the philosopher as well as the scientist. Does brute nature unfold a history? Does human history have a telos? Does human existence have a purpose? Phenomenology of life projects a new interrogative system for reexamining these questions. We are invited to follow the logos of life as it spins in innumerable ways the interplay of natural factors, human passions, social forces, science and experience {u2013} through interruptions and kairic moments of accomplishment {u2013} in the human creative imagination and intellective reasoning. There then run a cohesive thread of reality. Papers by: Marta Figueras Badia, Mark E. Blum, M. Avelina Cecilia Lafuente, Carmen Cozma, Danzankhorloo Dashpurev, Mamuka G.

Webster, Rafael Winkler, Jessica Wiskus, Shmuel Wygoda During its century-long unfolding, spreading in numerous directions, Husserlian phenomenology while loosening inner articulations, has nevertheless maintained a somewhat consistent profile. As we see in this collection, the numerous conceptions and theories advanced in the various phases of reinterpretations have remained identifiable with phenomenology. What conveys this consistency in virtue of which innumerable types of inquiry-scientific, social, artistic, literary – may consider themselves phenomenological? Is it not the quintessence of the phenomenological quest, namely our seeking to reach the very foundations of reality at all its constitutive levels by pursuing its logos? Inquiring into the logos of the phenomenological quest we discover, indeed, all the main constitutive spheres of reality and of the human subject involved in it, and concurrently, the logos itself comes to light in the radiation of its force (Tymieniecka).
