Journal Title: ИДЕИ. ФИЛОСОФСКО СПИСАНИЕ - Year 2013, Vol 5, Issue 5
Abstract
The author of the article proposes the arguments for consideration of existentialism as a complete historic-philosophical phenomenon, where religious and atheistic it forms are united by a common problem field and the structure of the existence. The essence of this structure is that the existence is "the way" from Nothing to Being constantly implemented in acts of negations and creativity. The theological existentialism of Paul Tillich helps to identify integral components of sense of unity philosophy of existence. His works mainly allow to speak about the specific form of the philosophy of existence. Theological existentialism of Tillich is a system and has components of ontology, anthropology, psychology, history of philosophy, social philosophy, philosophy of culture. Tho' Tillich thinking was the chief representative of this type of thinking, but elements of the approach are observed already in Søren Kierkegaard philosophy. This is the understanding of the human predicament as sin and tragedy, giving impulse to the disclosure of the existence, that is infinite unbecoming, the approaching to the Absolute, transcending of self. Negative – a provision of positive. It emerges that the passion with which the thinker must be associated with his thinking and its aim. It originates an infinite concern and engagement of existence. Human being is the approach, the approximation, the desire for some kind of fullness, that has no end. A form of transcendence by Kierkegaard is his concept of "repetition". The ideas of repetition are an trying to coming true with remaining oneself. Fatal yearning for being appears intention of self-preservation, where the path from nothing to being implemented as an infinite existence.
