The Goal of Life and the Life of Goal

Abstract

This text deals with the problem of the Goal in relation with the problem of education and its metaphysical and phenomenological assumptions. Metaphysical tradition understands telos in horizon of self-identical form, i.e. in the sense of self-realization - negation, freedom is here always subordinated to the necessity within higher-order positivity.

Phenomenology, in opposition to this conception, understands the problem of motion from the time - the "self-timing" as inner core of being is constant effort to reach the end, which is in its positivity unattainable.
