Sein und Erkennen.

»Being and Knowing« In ancient Greek and medieval scholastics the psyche (anima) as the essential form regards being as substance. Existence is totally underrepresented. This interpretation attributes completely different properties to the soul than to being. It is precisely the monistic idea of the unity of soul, being, essence and substance which blocks a more processive concept. Essence ist not a suitable starting point for the dimensions of history, culture, religion, myth etc. Existence and psyche offer a better basis for an organic connection.
