Truth Book / Truth Text

Froeb (cross-reference)

Short title for "An Introduction to Truth through Its Practice" — the epistemological foundation of all of Kai Froeb's books. The Truth Text performatively introduces the structures of systematic thought by practically enacting the question of truth. What appears there as a natural progression proves, in the Hegel Commentary, to be the systematic development of the logical categories.

Verhältnis zum hegel-kommentar

The Truth Book develops the structures performatively (in their enactment); the Hegel Commentary explicates them systematically (in their logical necessity). Both display the same structure from different perspectives.

Zentrale prinzipien

Elephant Principle (different perspectives), Detective Principle (integration of coherence and correspondence), performative contradiction (structures that cannot be gotten behind), processual conception of truth (truth as a living process).
