Abstract(s)
Abstraction, deductive discourse, and logic relegate this primary/first form of knowledge expatriating it in the name of
objectivity. But intuition can be the free vision of taskmaster rationality that in metaphor and symbol apprehends the reality from
which it is born. The analogy, not being translatable by concepts of understanding, can be experienced by active and existential
subjectivity, by the privilege of creation (plastic and artistic) that is expressed in the insinuation of intelligibility.
Is the non-submission of research to the rules of the scientific method capital? Allegiance to scientific criteria expels criticism of
scientific instruments and methods. Without expressing necessary and universal truths, the research we defend makes possible
their existence without their permanence being monolithic and invariant. Truth is no longer absolute, still less valid ad
aeternum in space and time.
