WAS RIGHT OR NOT PROTAGORAS? Whether were right the following for him Berkeley, Hume, Kant? Is right the modern philosophy?
"Man is the measure of all things existing…"
These words of the philosopher, skeptic, and the sophist Protagoras from Abdera (V century BC) quote Plato (Theaetetus 152a).
The anthropocentric viewpoint marked the beginning of the great dualism of body and soul, which will allowed deflating of the physical, shifting the emphasis for the ideal.
Under the banner of Christianity which allowed legitimizing this separation began and still continues the new era, the "new" way of thinking that has lasted more than 2,000 years.
In my book revealed the presence of regular changing cultural style every 2,400 years.
The essence of the difference can be defined as alternating of the objectified-holistic approach to solving life problems and ideally-abstracted.
Since the ideas by Protagoras has been more than 2400 years!
We stand at the beginning of the emergence of a new paradigm, the essence of which will be the dominance of holistic-objective approach for reality.
The impetus for the writing of that text was discussing the problem of "values".
It has been argued that problem of value is only specifically human notion, for which I gave a comment:
"Value is not only the concept of the human notion…the animals too something appreciate, love and fear, or for something are indifferent ...Possible the concept of value can be attributed and to an inanimate objects – the price of that or another event for acquiring new qualities of the object (for example: for the changing of the orbit by planet - the value of certain circumstances, or for beginning of a chemical reaction - the value of a some catalysts, etc.) I think that modern philosophy since Kant too much was fascinated by anthropocentrism... up to pathology. " (12.25.2015)
Yes, the idea that "man is the measure of all things" was the great discovery at own time. That idea was justified on the concept of "integrity of the world": if a man is inseparable part of the whole, through him we can speak about the whole world.
That idea has been used by a skeptic and sophist for the abstraction from material world so as to release oneself from the "put" objectivity...
Kant accomplished the "revolution", declaring that "a thing in itself" does not exist for a man, that time and space and everything that a person faces are the purely human categories...
It is place to go back to the problem of the whole which bring for us the "anthropocentric" viewpoint.
It the same that viewpoint of the world integrity, also allow us beside with "anthropocentrism" to put, for example, "thing-centrism"!
It allows us any phenomenon and thing which is in the world considered as "a measure of the world" (along with "man as the measure of the world").
Every "thing" (the phenomenon) has its own space and time of life which is determined by other things, and is determined other things as and the all world.
The idea of abstracting from the holistic world of "anthropocentric" viewpoint was long-running and productive.
Today this idea has exhausted itself...
