The present "Contribution to the Genealogy of Post-Metaphysical Thought" is also "a history of philosophy following the common thread of the discourse on faith and knowledge." From the attention to religion as a current figure of the objective spirit in post-secular society, he shows how Western philosophy has incorporated throughout its history, in the form of learning processes, religious contents, transforming them into knowledge capable of rational justification. This consideration points to the question of what can still be an adequate understanding of the task of philosophy today.
This first volume lays the foundations for the study of the Western evolutionary path from the comparison of the images of the world of the axial age, through the symbiosis of faith and knowledge in Christian Platonism and its progressive differentiation in medieval Europe, to the modern way, which opens the philosophical channels towards modernity.
