Sophocles-Balashevic (via Hegel)

A Grand Error or an Ariadne Type of Nexus?

Abstract

Philosophy is about our search for meaning through reason,
law and politics represent searching for order through reason,
literature is about searching for meaning through the interplay of
reason and imagination (Wiliams, xxi). All the three involve reason,
but literature presupposing imagination as well, an endeavor
unimaginable of in “serious” businesses such as philosophy, law and
politics, at least the mainstream ones. Philosophy, law and literature
could be clearly and intensely (although not too systematically, a
controlled level of creative chaos is a trademark of postmodernism)
merged only within an intellectually rebellious movement – the
postmodernism.
