Abstract

[Autom. eng. transl.] The metaphysics of Thomas Aquinas, Kant's transcendental method and Heidegger's ontological difference constitute the constant points of reference for the reflection of Johannes B. Lotz, one of the best known representatives of "transcendental Thomism": his works testify to the vitality of an ancient tradition of thought and the theoretical opening of an original and innovative philosophical itinerary. The intentions and projects of every man, the sense of praxis, the content and forms of temporality and historicity animate the complex structure of experience and its levels of expression: ontic, eidetic, ontological, metaphysical and religious. In this dynamic metaphysics is not intended as a vain declaration of abstract principles, but arises as a request for meaning in anthropology and history. The three parts that make up this research - the metaphysics of knowledge as a question of method, the phenomenological-transcendental elaboration of anthropology, truth and historicity - would delineate the path and the breadth of a "metaphysics of human action" which, within the limits of finitude, it desires a reliable fulfillment.
