Outwith beauty

John Baldacchino

pp. 121-139

Abstract

Weak thought must extend beyond philosophy, art, theology or politics. What Vattimo and Rovatti articulated almost 30 years ago13 surely invites a leap beyond what is presented as a fait accompli, including what lies beyond weak thought itself. This cannot be read as an "application" of some newfound doctrine of weak thought to concepts such as reality and art. The concept of a weakening of the role and place of thought proscribes applications, as this would imply yet another method and yet another emergent totality.
