La soluci\u00f3n Cl\u00e1sica<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Por Le\u014dnardus Str\u016bthi\u014d<\/span><\/p>\n\n Y<\/span>et granted that there are no valid moral or political objections to classical political philosophy<\/span>\u2014<\/span><\/strong>is that political philosophy not bound up with an antiquated cosmology? Does not the very question of the nature of man point to the question of the nature of the whole, and therewith to one or the other specific cosmology? Whatever the significance of modern natural science may be, it cannot affect our understanding of what is human in man. To understand man in the light of the whole means for modern natural science to understand man in the light of the sub-human. But in that light man as man is wholly unintelligible. Classical political philosophy viewed man in a different light. It was originated by Socrates. And Socrates was so far from being committed to a specific cosmology that his knowledge was knowledge of ignorance. Knowledge of ignorance is not ignorance. It is knowledge of the elusive character of the truth, of the whole. Socrates, then, <\/span>[39] <\/span>vi<\/span>ewed man in the light of the mysterious character of the whole. <\/span>He held therefore that we are more familiar with the situation of man as man than with the ultimate causes of that situation. We may also say he viewed man in the light of the unchangeable ideas, <\/span>i.e.<\/span>, of the fundamental and permanent problems. For to articulate the situation of man means to articulate man\u2019<\/span>s <\/span>openness to the whole. <\/span>This<\/span> understanding of the situation of man which includes, then, the quest for cosmology rather than a solution to the cosmological problem, was the foundation of classical political philosophy.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Next paragraph<\/a><\/p>\n Previous paragraph<\/a><\/p>\n Sin embargo, <\/span>aunque admitamos <\/span>que no existen objeciones morales o pol\u00edticas v\u00e1lidas contra la filosof\u00eda pol\u00edtica cl\u00e1sica, \u00bfno <\/span>est\u00e1 esa filosof\u00eda pol\u00edtica ligada <\/span>a una cosmolog\u00eda anticuada? \u00bfNo apunta la propia cuesti\u00f3n de la naturaleza del hombre al tema de la naturaleza del todo y, por <\/span>ello<\/span>, a una u otra cosmolog\u00eda espec\u00edfica? Cualquiera que sea el significado de la ciencia natural moderna, no puede afectar nuestra comprensi\u00f3n de lo que es humano en el hombre. Entender al hombre a la luz del todo significa para la ciencia natural moderna entender al hombre a la luz de lo <\/span>infrahumano<\/span>. Pero a la luz de es<\/span>t<\/span>o, el hombre como hombre es completamente ininteligible. La filosof\u00eda pol\u00edtica cl\u00e1sica ve\u00eda al hombre bajo una luz diferente. Fue originada por S\u00f3crates. S\u00f3crates estaba tan lejos de estar comprometido con una cosmolog\u00eda espec\u00edfica que su conocimiento era conocimiento de la ignorancia. El conocimiento de la ignorancia no es ignorancia. Es conocimiento del car\u00e1cter elusivo de la verdad, del todo. S\u00f3crates, entonces, ve\u00eda al hombre a la luz del car\u00e1cter misterioso del todo. Sosten\u00eda, por tanto, que estamos m\u00e1s familiarizados con la situaci\u00f3n del hombre en cuanto hombre que con las causas \u00faltimas de esa situaci\u00f3n. Tambi\u00e9n podemos decir que ve\u00eda al hombre a la luz de las ideas inmutables, es decir, de los problemas fundamentales y permanentes. Porque expresar la situaci\u00f3n del hombre significa expresar <\/span>la apertura del hombre al todo<\/span>. Est<\/span>a<\/span> comprensi\u00f3n de<\/span> la situaci\u00f3n del hombre, que incluye antes la cosmolog\u00eda como problema que la soluci\u00f3n al problema cosmol\u00f3gico, era el punto de partida de la filosof\u00eda pol\u00edtica cl\u00e1sica.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Siguiente p\u00e1rrafo<\/a><\/p>\n P\u00e1rrafo anterior<\/a><\/p>\n Ir al inicio de esta entrada<\/a><\/p>\nLe<\/span>\u014d<\/span>nard<\/span>\u012b<\/span> Str\u016bt<\/span>h<\/span>i<\/span>\u012b<\/span> verba<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n
