Abstract

Logos and its self-same. – The paper uses phenomenological approach in order to show the ontological meaning of the word logos. Logos can stop in its penetrating and simplifying function not only because of ignorance, but also of over-knowledge of individual things. All this leads to the necessity of a whole, which is born only from the tension of the essential questioning, which is the piety of thought. Today, only questions, and only essential questions is what can help morality. Everything else is overwhelmed by the principle of versatility, which makes everything relative and unnecessary.
