Descrizione

While it is not possible to find an organic metaphysics structured in a systematic form in Pascal’s writings, it is nevertheless possible to recognise precise «outlines» revealing an implicit metaphysics essentially classical in its framework. The originality of Pascal’s proposal resides in the re-centring of reflection on a «metaphysics of the person» from which results a comprehension of being in «three orders» of reality mutually incommensurable. Experience itself, in fact, informs, in its multidimensionality, about the organisation of the real in the orders of corporeity (corps), intellect (esprit) and transcendence (charité). Heterogeneous dimensions, but unified in the experience of the person as a substantial reality. The metaphysics of the trois ordres thus takes the form of a metaphysics of the real in an existential scope, and philosophical theology itself expresses this leavening, whereby it remains insufficient to itself if it is unable to open rationality to the ordre de la charité, which reason itself is even able to foresee as its own most authentic outcome.
