Metaphysics of the reliable. Logical-philosophical experience of formal hermeneutics.

- What is the purpose of this book?

            - In an attempt to think the grounds, the essence of our thinking. But not as an essence that expresses the pre-reason of modern metaphysics: “I” is the “unity” of existence, on which all culture stands - from religion to science. But as the essence that itself carries out the meaning of any metaphysics, which itself gives everything a meaningful understanding.

            - So, the book strives to become an understanding of everything that is understood. What will make her understand herself?

            - Of course, in order to see the meaning of some pre-reasons, it is necessary to confess others. In order to reveal one metaphysical structure, it is necessary to be in another, elusive from the field of view, since the means of consideration cannot be its own object under consideration - the “speaking” can never be “said”. But, on top of that, in order for the book to be understood, the elusive metaphysics must be the same metaphysics we interpret. This super-task determines both the structure of the book and the method of its reasoning.

            It rethinks the deepest metaphysical concepts of our tradition : sign, meaning, being, being, form, memory, number, reality, truth, “this”, “I” ...

            - But what makes you talk about the “rethinking” of these categories, a thousand times stipulated in one way or another, will this book not fall into the tautologies of old quotations?

            - The fact is that the meaning of metaphysical categories, however, and everything else, we are merging with the already mentioned escape of metaphysics from its own consideration, an escape that leads the metaphysical content away from tautological (or paradoxical) throwing around the hermeneutic circle. The meaning of this escape from the emptiness of tautologies is the source of all that is meaningful. But how is this “source” to be conceived when it is its own reflexive elimination from meaningful content? - It is impossible to “think” it, but it can be demonstrated, o-existed in the reflections of my book, which are a complex structure of mutually reflective hermeneutic circles: from the first paragraph to the entire tripartite structure of the book. This book doesn't "talk about something", this book demonstrates "how to...". Therefore, in order to understand it, it must be read from beginning to end.

            As you can already guess, the sought-after essence of understanding, the source of everything meaningful, which is also the proposition of meaning, is conceived by me as a hermeneutical circle, but not as a circle revealed in the texts of our culture, but as its implementation in demonstrating “reading these texts”. It is this last stage of the reflective demonstration of the old metaphysics that provides the basis for the “rethinking” of its categories.

            What came of it - judge for yourself.
