Abstract
[Autom. eng. transl.] To become blessed it is certainly not enough to philosophize, but philosophy serves, among other things, to rationally clarify the problem of life. The philosophical ethics will then appear inscribed in the dynamics of desire and will be structured as a teleological ethics. His task will therefore be to search for and justify rationally the way and means that lead to the end, the subjective and objective fulfillment of desire. However, ethics cannot fulfill this task without an anthropological foundation that is, at the same time, metaphysical and hermeneutical-phenomenological, that is able to justify the problematic nature of the fulfillment of desire as a synthesis of finite and infinite, or of subject desiring and end / good that is given in the correspondence of 'I', 'others', 'world' and 'God'. Anthropology and ethics will therefore also be "dramatic", because the subject can only be achieved in the living act of his existence, in which the circularity of the correspondence of love is realized only on two conditions, the one dependent in everything from the subject and the other totally out of his power: his freedom, which is always in tension between yes and no, and the possible, non-deductible, always free competition of others / Other.
