ANTI-“anti-physis”.

 

ANTI-“anti-physis”. 

 

 

 

Dear Reader,

 

Ancient Greek philosophers named Nature – including Nature as «Kosmos»; Nature as a whole – by the word «physis», or «phusis».

 

Some ancient Greek philosophers described “humanity”, including the physical plant of the city-state, as «anti-physis»; as the “artificial”; as the “un-natural”.

 

Even in those ancient times, some saw that humanity was an outgrowth of Nature, an extension of Nature, hence also as “natural” – as part of Nature.

 

Since those ancient times, it has become ever more clear that humanity is a predictable, Darwinian self-extension of Nature, and not some alien in Nature; not, somehow, some force from outside of Nature, somehow from “outside of the universe”, and destined to destroy Nature, as the ‘Rocke-Nazi’, ‘humanocidal’ “eco”-ideologues would imply.

 

Thus, the correct formulation of the relationship of humanity to [the rest of] Nature is not the radical diremption [‘ß|à’] –

Anti-physis ß|à Physis

– or the absolute dualism [‘ß|à’] –

Artificial ß|à Natural

– or the “antinomy”  – 

 Humanity ß|à Nature

– but, on the contrary, is the dialectical «auto-aufheben», diachronic process of/within NATURAL HISTORY  –

Pre-Human                  Pre-Human                   Pre-Human

Nature¹ ®  Nature²  |-=  Nature  ~Å~ Humanity

 

– & the synchronic, systematic categorial relationship – 

 

Human Nature ~Å~ Exo-Human Nature.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

¡Enjoy!
