 The
Logos-Structure of the World
Language as a Model of Reality
Georg
Kühlewind
The Logos-Structure of the
World, by Georg Kuhlewind, was written "to show that the world, including human beings and
their consciousness, is not originally a world of things but a world
of words; that fundamentally the world has the structure of a text;
and that it is therefore possible to read it like a text."
In
order to carry out this aim, three different approaches or
disciplines must be continuously kept in mind: epistemology,
psychology, and linguistics. What unites these is the phenomenology
or "empiricism of consciousness" employed by the author who always
speaks out of, and toward, experience. Thus, this is no ordinary
philosophical text, but a guide to philosophical experience: to the
experience of cognition itself.
A most important work, sounding the depth of the I AM to reveal the
love that unifies self and cosmos.
—David
Appelbaum, Professor of Philosophy, SUNY New Paltz
If
you appreciate poetry, philosophy, and science—as
contrapuntal meditations on the real—Logos-Structure
will sing you a grounding theme, as sublime as it is deep.
—Arthur
Egendorf, psychotherapist, author of Healing the Wounds of War
Drawing on a vast store of scientific, philosophical, and linguistic
knowledge, and his own carefully charted experience, Georg Kühlewind
teaches the Logos in terms at once individual and universally human.
—Robert
McDermott, President, California Institute of Integral Studies
I
find Kühlewind's work invaluable. He lays the groundwork for a new,
twenty-first century worldview that integrates human life into a
vibrant whole. His philosophy is refreshingly unique—it is not only
philosophically rigorous and spiritually profound but also
accessible to the inquiring general reader.
—Tyson
Anderson, Professor of Philosophy, St. Leo College
