Dialectic: ‘Centrality of «Aufheben»’, Part 11: Seldon’s ‘‘‘Seeings’’’ Series
--
‘The Centrality of the «Aufheben» Process/Relation to Seldonian Dialectics’.
Dear Reader,
It
is my pleasure,
and my honor, as an officer of the Foundation Encyclopedia
Dialectica [F.E.D.]
Office of Public Liaison, and as a voting member of F.E.D.,
to share with
you, from
time to time, as
they
are approved
for public release by
the F.E.D.
General Council, key
excerpts
from the internal writings, and from the internal sayings, of our co-founder,
Karl Seldon.
The
eleventh such release in this series is posted below [Some E.D.
standard edits have been applied, in the version presented
below, by the editors of the Special Council for the Encyclopedia, to the
direct transcript of our co-founder’s
discourse].
This 11th instalment addresses the «Aufheben» Process/Relation as the essence of Seldonian dialectic.
Seldon:
“The «aufheben» process [historically,
diachronically, ‘chrono-taxonomically’, as in ‘‘‘historical
dialectic’’’] and the resulting
«aufheben» relation [systematically,
more synchronically, ‘ideo-taxonomically’, as in
‘‘‘systematic dialectic’’’], is
the very essence of all
true dialectic.”
“What
we term ‘meta-unit-ization’, ‘meta-«monad»-ization’,
‘meta-element-ization’, or ‘meta-holon-ization’, is
the process among
the units or «monads» of the ‘trans-Pythagorean’,
‘trans-Platonian’ ‘‘‘concrete numbers’’’ [«arithmoi aisthetoi»] of ‘‘‘The Kinds’’’, i.e. of the
self-expanding Domain of
ontological categories extant, that, by the concurrent [self-]elevation/[self-]conservation/[self-]transformation
[‘‘‘determinate [self-]negation’’’] actions,
i.e., by the «aufheben»
actions, of the ‘‘‘concrete units’’’ that those
categories represent, constitute our cosmos within any given
cosmological epoch.”
“Those
[self-]«aufheben» actions
also constitute the more ‘statical’ «aufheben»
relations that instantiate the cosmos as present within a given epoch of
cosmological ‘self-meta-evolution’: The ‘meta-unit-ic’, ‘meta-«monad»-ic’,
‘meta-element-ic’, or ‘meta-holon-ic’
relations par excellence among ‘‘‘[self-]elevated’’’
[in ‘qualo-fractal scale’], and thereby also ‘‘‘[self-]conserved’’’,
and thereby also ‘‘‘[self-]transformed [dialectically
[self-]negated]’’’ [metaw-]units, of varying ‘‘‘degrees’’’ [w], of those
‘‘‘Kinds’’’, also of, correspondingly, varying ‘‘‘degrees’’’ [w].”
