Christian philosophy - Opis:
- The article considers Gilson’s view on medieval philosophy, the concept of Christian philosophy, the main tendencies of Gilson’s metaphysics in the context of more important biographical data and the documented reception of his works. Gilson as a historian of philosophy is the creator of the view that the proper history of philosophy concerns the history of philosophical problems. Showing them requires that the historian of philosophy was mainly a philosopher, not only a historian and philologist. Thus, the history of schools discussed by the historian and the history of the texts that philologist discusses, does not constitute a proper history of philosophy. They are auxiliary disciplines for history philosophy. Gilson as a historian of medieval philosophy showed the diversity and richness of the themes and themes of the medieval views. He showed that medieval philosophy is a direct source of modernity and that the Middle Ages fulfilled the philosophical achievements of Greece and Rome with the theological reflection. He also claimed that medieval theology and faith caused development of philosophy towards the formation of the metaphysics of existence. As a historian of philosophy, Gilson was the author of the view that Christian philosophy is mainly about the metaphysics of existing being, because the revealed name of God prompted theologians to reflection and they worked out the theory of existence and deepened the problem of being in this way. Agreeing with Gilson that the theory of existence is unusual refinement and fulfillment in the metaphysics of being and it finds a true path to the reality of all beings including the reality of God, we should not however consider this theory as a set of conclusions resulting from the theological explanation of Christian revelation. These conclusions result from the analysis of real individual beings, which is precisely what was shown by Thomas Aquinas who made a philosophical reflection on being and views on the object of metaphysics in the history of philosophy. We can only agree that the theory of existence, applied in theology, expresses the reality of God according to the revelation. As a metaphysician, Gilson introduced the philosophy of the twentieth century metaphysics of existence and became a co-creator with Maritain existential version of Thomism. His concept of Christian philosophy and the necessity of meeting methodological requirements of postulates of positivism is imperfect in this existential version of Thomism and it evokes the need for fidelity as a consistent metaphysics of being existing, showing the reality of Self-existence. Gilson as the theoretician of cognition convincingly questioned idealism, he defended epistemological realism, formulated the theory of cognition of existence and the theory of existential claims. Finally, he mobilized many generations of philosophers to rethink the metaphysics.
