| Zusammenfassung: | Modern science has provided us with a powerful mathematization of nature. But do we, can we dwell in nature as a mathematical construction 1 One might make the case that the very power of this mstbesis of nature is just in its abstraction from the plenitude of nature as sensuously given. Its truth is defined, by the power of its abstraction from this plenitude, but just that truth, precisely as true, 'is false to the full plenitude of being, as exceeding every abstraction. This issue is large, and I am aware that my remarks here cannot do justice to its complexity.1 I want to suggest:a sense of nature as exceeding mstbesls. Using the old nomenclature that distinguishes natura netursns (nature naturing) and natura naturala (nature natured), I want to suggest that while we can have a mstbesis of nature natured, relative to of nature naturing we need a mlndfulness of what we might call the poiesls of being. We need to' renew a sense of the aesthetic presencinq of nature naturing in order to be true to the fullness of what emerges into appearance. |
