ROMERO CONTRERAS, Arturo. Six Contemporary Readings of Schelling's Freedom Essay. Tópicos (México) [online]. 2018, n.55, pp.189-229. ISSN 0188-6649.  https://doi.org/10.21555/top.v0i55.859.

The following paper offers six contemporary readings of Schelling's Freedom essay. It begins by explaining the fundamental problem of the Essay, namely the contraction between freedom and necessity and between ground and existence. The principle of ground must be understood in ontological sense, and implies a hierarchic and necessary relationship between the elements involved. The principle of existence is rather of ethical nature and implies a separation, non-necessary and horizontal relationship of its members. Hence the question: how to think the "simultaneity" of two irreconcilable fundamental positions? To address this issue I offer a confrontation between Adorno and Schelling regarding non-identity thought. Finally I offer six contemporary readings of the Essay, which can be sorted in two groups: a) a logical-topological perspective (involving non-classical logics and topology) and b) a reading from four contem porary thinkers: Karatani, Blondel, Merleau-Ponty and Günther and three closely-related notions developed by them: that of parallax, chiasm and diplopy.

Palavras-chave : Schelling; Karatani; Merleau-Ponty; chiasm; parallax; non-classical logic; topology.
