In this present study I would like to propose the following thesis: at the core of the phenomenon of the world we find the phenomenon of the cosmos. In order to demonstrate this idea, I will expound in detail on the philosophical interpretation of the problem of world in the works of three authors: Husserl, Heidegger and Eliade. Husserl interpreted the phenomenon of the world as a transcendental, intersubjective constitution. In Heidegger’s interpretation the world was first and foremost “being-in-the-world” and as such the existential structure, the mode of being of human existence or “being-there” (“Dasein”). Eliade, in his comparative religious studies, accepted the standpoint of Heidegger’s existential phenomenology. For him, the “sacred” and the “profane” were two distinct fundamental modes of “being-in-the-world”. Eliade conceived of the ancient man’s world essentially as the “cosmos”, as a well-formed order of sacred and profane matters. I will try to show how these three conceptions coincide with one another, forming a single coherent phenomenological structure. I will call the method whereby we investigate the ideal laws of this structure “transcendental morphology”. |
