What is classical and non-classical knowledge?

Slobodanka Vladiv-Glover

pp. 205-238

Abstrakt

Mamardašvili's "classical' paradigm of knowledge is seen to be minimally based on extrapolations from Descartes' classical philosophy to which Mamardašvili attributes features that rather anticipate his own post-classical ontology. The latter is oriented towards the primacy of perception as a subjective process, in which the self-conscious subject constructs the world, not as illusion, but as a "picture' or "model' (Wittgenstein's Bild). By examining Mamardašvili's definition of the "phenomenon' against the␣background of Husserl's "reduction', Wittgenstein's "object' and the Freudian and post-structuralist psychoanalytic model of subjectivity, the paper arrives at the inference that Mamardašvili is essentially a post-Structuralist thinker who appropriates concepts from various critical and philosophical disciplines to construct his own multi-disciplinary theory of consciousness and perception.
