Resumen de Dio come Essere ed Essere come Evento: Saggio conclusivo
The editorial conclusion to the special issue is divided into three parts. The first part addresses the question of whether the aim of the Lugano conference and of this special issue has been met, namely the aim of providing the opportunity for philosophers of the analytic and continental tradition to gather together and interact with each other on the topic of God as Being. The second part identifies some converging responses as well as some fundamental disagreements as regards the question “Is God Being itself?” that have emerged during the Lugano conference. The third part puts forward a new reading of Aquinas’ metaphysics of being, which may allow us to reduce disagreement between the continental and the analytic tradition. In particular, the third part suggests a conception of being as “second act”, i.e. as what nowadays would be called an “event”.
This conception of being as event may allow us to go beyond the contrast between being and subjectivity as well as the contrast between existing and occurring.
