From: "Michael Pennamacoor" <pennamacoor-AT-enterprise.net> > hi Jan oh this all sems like a can of words [sic] this memory thing... if liberation of selfhood would imply a loss of memory then we'd be in Nietzsche territory, n'est pas? Nietzsche says that a bridge to higher rainbows would come from a freedom from revenge against time and its it was: the past not-passed. The entire new metaphysical stage is bound up in not being repulsed by the non-willed past, the tradition, memory (acting as a 'hold' on the present and thus the future): the presencing of the present(ed beings) not re-presented but just presented, simple presencing of being as such... as willed. The new being-human who sur-passes the last man in willing being, as bringing the past through the impasse of a passing through and beyond it self, a threading through of the threads gifted by some metaphysical Ariadne... what a thought! what gives? best willings michaelP >yet, what is [a] memory ? > >- it seems like a grid, a dialectical constellation scaffolding the > future with the past [and v.v.] in the now > >- it seems like a house, a familiar place for shelter with rooms > to hide and landscapes to home in > >- it seems like a mechanism, a strange machine with its own > interior logic and telos [a machine with a "conatus" in the > Spinozian sense, as in: "conatus sese conservandi" and > "conatus sese praeservandi"] but also of waves of accumulation > and chaos > >would liberation of selfhood imply/require loss of memory ? > > > > > --- from list heidegger-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu --- > > --- from list heidegger-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu ---
