Antropologia mapy jako nowa metafizyka

Journal Title: Przegląd Humanistyczny - Year 2015, Vol 59, Issue 4

Abstract

The aim of the research paper is to make use of the map metaphor from Jean Baudrillard’s Simulacra and Simulation as a starting point for the new metaphysics that is congruent with the poetics of postmodernism. The main idea here is to neglect a distinction between epistemology and ontology and to choose a philosophical perspective that breaks through some binary oppositions such as object-subject, fact-fiction, real-virtual etc. The proposed way to do so is to connect the anthropology of map with the philosophy of the other and put them together with the postmodern idea of the sign.<br/><br/>
