Anotace:
Once seen through the mirror of its archives, philosophy appears as well as a practice and a form of life, indexical to a specific culture and situation: the expression through concepts "translates" the individual experience - the idiosyncratic thinking and writing subjectivity - into an abstract alphabet, aiming to be universal, while certainly addressed in primis to the very specific public of the peers and untangled in traditional forms and mindsets. Taking into account the manuscripts as documents and traces of a dynamic process leading to the conceptual statements delivered in printed books, may not only enrich the exegesis, but also disclose an understanding of the discipline as a matter of literature as well, and the result of a complex interaction between subjects, languages, times/spaces. After a methodological introduction combining philosophy and genetic criticism, some examples will lead to the more specific topic of philosophy as a dialogical and transcultural phenomenon per se, selecting amongst manuscripts of different authors of the 19th and 20th century.
