Cacciari and Lemon, the "Nomos Basileus" Federico II in Caserta

was held on October 9 an interesting public meeting, promoted by Don Luigi Nunziante and editions Saletta Grape Lemon and Cacciari intervened. The theme was the "supreme Law", in greek " Nomos Basileus" (among other things, " basileus ", or sovereign, is the root of the basil, the herb of kings). Professor Lemon introduction, follows Cacciari, have come the last warm thanks to Bishop Nogaro. Don presented Nunziante, who briefly explained both the greek-Jewish roots of the concept of law in the West, and the contradictions that have historically marked the destiny, as well as the openings on the present and its problems. Lemon, presenting the essential concept, called the "supreme Law" as the law "than any other" because "no other law upon himself," which immediately raises the question, decisive of those states - or what - that domain. Lemon, coming to the heart of the problems and simplifying them inevitably, talk of "power Zero "as the original power that can absorb everything. In reality, the Law can not be sovereign if not this one. But throughout history, the sovereign power weakens, the joints and weakened. In fact, says Lemon, Power the original is, in its fullness, unattainable. The first split is between moral law and the law supreme, from this initial split are continuing at a subsequent weakening of the chain. The second is to split the evangelical conscience that wants to use the "nomos " than himself. In fact, the evangelical conscience and grace in its deepest sense, and " Grace is over the nomos "says Lemon. All this seems very abstract, but in reality it is very concrete. In my view, a fundamental element Lemon central, essential, indispensable to our present: the loss of the overall framework, the loss of the contradiction between the universal and individual, that contradiction, adds the writer, who gave the story in motion. In this it is drawn into the debate on, of the Constitution, in view of Lemon, acceptable in my view, the "big picture" is the Constitution, the rules are the single individual phenomena [1] . Losing sight of the overall picture is a crucial error.

The drive towards universal protection of the individual are in contradiction to the base of each Constitution, Lemon, and defined and definitive resolution of this contradiction in reality is unattainable, however, the contradiction disappears when it disappears, the drive towards 'universal sense then disappears. You can not denote our present better than that. This dialectic, this contradiction He must be preserved and maintained. Lemon refers to the Emperor's message, which, though universal, must reach each individual in their uniqueness, in its irreducibility to any written standard. " Hic Rhodos, hic jump", they would say the ancients. Here is the Gordian knot, the writer adds.

Cacciari's intervention has made a counterpoint to that of lemon, but you can certainly say that, despite being a lecturer Cacciari experienced and having no problem in speaking in public, here it is found in a moment of special grace, that has not been lost to Bishop Nogaro, who has referred to its many long conversations with the same Cacciari calling it the "prophet of non-believers", a stumbling block for believers and lay people, but precisely because of this, makes the masks fall, that is true to the themes. It is not possible to summarize the speech, the clarification of the meaning of 'nomos "in greek, very different from the Latin" lex, "meaning" Agathon ", which is the' Excess , what "goes beyond" any determination, the meaning of " origo " in Latin, which is not the 'Agathon "just said. Although there have been several references, such as the heroic destiny and Nietzsche, the hero being the one who wants to "Know" his destiny, which, therefore, if he knowingly takes [2] . To denote

Cacciari's speech will follow one of the many threads that he proposed, that of desecration of " nomos," which, "originally" in " polis" is always linked to " Dike, "the cosmic order, astral-balanced, ie music, to use the Pythagorean vision [3] . Even with the philosophies of the Hellenistic "nomos " breaks away from the " Kosmos", the cosmic order, to try to tap into the unlimited. He was born the " eradication" of the 'reverse arbor "that is" nomos ", because this tree has its roots upward. The case of Rome is somewhat different, because so Rome became an Empire, but never the "world", the "cosmopolitanism" [4] , In other words, Rome is expanding its " limes " but not eliminate it ever.

D'removal in removal, you will reach the modern, where the link between " nomos" and " Dike," the divine order of the cosmos, it definitely breaks [5] . The modern, add to the discourse of Cacciari, is precisely The removal, where the man says there is more " Dike," no longer an order of the cosmos, but only individual facts, be ordered by means of force or the state - the so-called "totalitarianism" now so devalued, but this is a history to be rewritten! [6] - or by the miserable, constant pseudo-democratic discussion, now degenerated into solipsism of certain groups and interests, the indifference of the masses "televisuonate" in a perpetual carnival . Clear that this process of expulsion "(Jünger) is not a moment but, precisely, a whole complex and lengthy process that would lead to today's absolute nihilism. We are at the terminus, add to the discourse of Cacciari. When you burned the wood ashes and you got you can not burn the ashes. When you have soaked the book in the rain you can not read anymore. The pages are gaping and disperse. How

fits, to return to the speech Cacciari, the "break" the Christian worldview as, in all this? It first takes the "disenchantment" of the world of Hellenistic philosophy, the "grow your own garden" of the Garden of Epicurus [7] , that atmosphere so similar to our "globalized" world and uniform and that question, now as then, to be accepted but to go beyond , not to stay stuck! Yet it must accept. Christianity, in essence, rejects the "religion civilis " Roman but instead accepts the "lex " Roman. not accept "the gods of the Empire" but instead accepts the ' Imperium Romanum . This is the Christian view, but let's see how it compares with the Gospel. Cacciari refers to Paul, "the man who founded Christianity" [8] : for the apostle to the Gentiles " nomos", and therefore the state religion but also as a "norm", are legitimate. But, and here's the thing, the "nomos " not save, neither the Empire nor the Law of Moses - or that Islam today - can make " soteria " the Salvation . Only the " dikaiousìnê Theou " - the " Iustitia Dei" - can . And the term " Theou - genitive singular - is subjective, said Cacciari. Nothing saves, but only the 'One saves, says Paul. Good deeds are not in any way salvation, good deeds are pleasing to Him, to them it is worthwhile. Thus, we become representatives the Iustitia Of here and now - here and now - on Earth, but we are not the source of this new term, which would be better to say " Agathon , the Summum Bonum of Latin, he wants to say ' Excess, What is over each measure, and measurement division, is "nomos " from " neme ", split. The ancient Greek, to say "believe in the gods, said that" nomizzava "the gods, that which divided the Earth model according to the heavenly gods those who had donated. A little thing a bit 'different from our belief that only engages the mind. The writer adds that the real unity between the old vision and the "evangelical conscience," to use the term of the two speakers, is the possibility to Christianize the "nomizzare" of the ancients. But back to Cacciari. Become representatives of the One, is the meaning of " Novitas " Christianity in its most essential, profound and irreducible. Speaking of these things, Cacciari stresses that the question who is right and who's not, it is already wrong, because worldviews are not football, not a question of being "partisan", say the writers. I would add: you can not "take sides", take part, it is part or not at all. A worldview is not chosen, it chooses us. All this seems very far

by this, but Cacciari has the ability to lower it in this because, then, is this fruitful contradiction fact: that the "nomos " must refer to that which exceeds it, otherwise it loses meaning, is the relationship between the "nomos " as representation - and therefore also write the laws - and what transcends him, conceived not like "separate" but instead reconnected, the real point. It 's the report, the key point, said Cacciari. Otherwise, there are many more small and sneaky, which, as Plato pointed out - it The Republic - are just tricks, the more numerous the more powerless. You lose, well, the sense of limits, Cacciari argues this tendency so strong in the present. "What gives is not writable" concludes Cacciari. What makes sense is determined that collection over and over which you exercise, Chios.

comments that can be done are many, but I'll try to sunteggiar something. Reconcile the universal with the individual, that's all what we have forgotten and that's all we do. Without any fear of failure, because we never fully do - and we know it and we know, otherwise the credulity of simpletons - the true fulfillment of the " soteria - Salvation, that of the castaway about to sink, as shown in the episode of " Acts, where the prophecy is about storytelling and below and through the events [9] - can not come from" us "from human actions as such. But this is an excuse for doing nothing? The real point is here. The nothing not You can "do" in any way, just being you can "do" because to do presupposes being, not vice versa. Trying to "do nothing" modern man has closed absurdity of a prison without bars. He himself is bars ... It 's only, and only when it discovers that the being in him man can get out.

The real fault of modern man - and a contemporary man in "real time" living in a present unreal - not that it did not succeed in reconciling the universal with the individual. The real fault of his own, one that cries to Heaven, is not even try! But I really believe that people in the past did not know that the individual is reduced to a standard any, that the unexpected is part of the destiny of man, who never attained a full-control of the situation worldwide? They knew very well. And what did they do? They locked up inside himself to cultivate a small garden or on the contrary, they tried to reconcile the two, I could never quite feel the same and yet? It is' the last man "of Nietzsche, that of radical nihilism , which holds that" nothing can be done, " grow only in our small garden, as if nothing really you could do it! The nothing you can not do true origin and over, what is beyond all determination, and therefore Wealth the Absolute Fullness , what modern man has never, ever understood . Because everything closes in the walls of his individual mind, thought of as separate, in principle, from the mind of the One, which, however, knows how to give meaning to everything. "En To Pan ," said the Greeks [10] .

The crowd is silent, but here is the Apostle of the Gentiles speaking in Hebrew, the "language of the fathers", the native language we would say. And then their silence is more profound. It 's like if you could cut with a knife that silence, which is very impressive passage of scripture. Here, this silence is the Origin of the Word. There is the "fount", there things are true, world views, are compared. We are on uncertain ground yet fruitful. There is the 'Approach' Origin, Jünger would have said, there is a danger but an opportunity, always Jünger would say. What I mean is that modern man no longer wants to "take" is no longer willing to take the risk and opportunity, while among the men of other eras - the understanding that the bulk of humanity has never exceeded the biological level - someone always would try. But this is where it starts, but really, out of mere words. The rest is silence, background noise.
