Discovering Humanistic Patterns through Manzonian Lenses – A Phenomenological Excursus

Abstract

The values of philosophy, theology, and history, as intertwined with the psycho-social, political, and cultural lives of humans at any given time, are incontestable. The extent to which ideas influence humanity's realization bears this out. It appears that there are fairly identifiable patterns in the humanistic life craft. The problem is that these patterns are almost always well-cloaked at each moment. The value vectors retain their desirable validity while their contingent appearance – their givenness – a phenomenological reality, hinders their actualization. One notices this shine out from great literary and artistic patrimonies, which play a significant and inspiring role in revealing historical precedents. It appears something blinds thinkers and leaders from identifying these patterns regarding state crafts for a better global humanism. Humans seem to be forever lost in an ocean bed under a colossal mountain. This discovery is nowhere better methodologically mirrored than in the phenomenalization of the Manzonian and the contemporary worlds. This write-up proposes, exposes, and relates these to provoke the search for clear patterns in the ideal desire for a better humanistic organization of the world.
