Epistemological forms of thinking. Thinking space

Journal Title: ИДЕИ. ФИЛОСОФСКО СПИСАНИЕ - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 1

Abstract

The article presents a hypothesis about some differences in the spatial mode of philosophical thinking. They create different mental space models of philosophical knowledge and can be defined as principles and foundations of philosophical knowledge. Three basic models of thinking (epistemological forms) are considered. The first one is a pyramidal mental space schema (form), in which the cognitive space shrinks in a kind of mental vertex (noetic top). This schema generates basic concepts, such as absolute substance, God, the One, transcendental subject. The second model has a spherical shape, which creates a spherical mental space principle. The logical principles that lie at the very basis of the universe could be found in it. The third model has the form of “inverted pyramid”. It lacks the sense of-gravity and idea for absolute substance. It creates a condition for widening of thinking and consciousness.
