Lorenz (Lorencino) Bruno Puntel (German: [punˈteːl]; born September 22, 1935) is a Brazilian philosopher based in Germany, who established the school of Structural-systematic philosophy.[1][2] Professor emeritus at the University of Munich, Puntel has been named as one of the great contemporary philosophers, articulating his ideas from the most varied traditions.[3][4][5][6]

Career[edit]

Puntel studied philosophy, theology, philology and psychology in Munich, Innsbruck, Vienna, Paris, and Rome. He graduated in philosophy in Munich (1968) and in Catholic theology (1969) in Innsbruck. He became a professor at the Institute of Philosophy at the University of Munich in 1978. He was a student of Karl Rahner and studied with Martin Heidegger, whose philosophy concerned him throughout his life.[7]

Philosophical work[edit]

Puntel's thought tries to reconstruct the systematics of philosophy from a very unique viewpoint, which involves the elaboration of a theoretical language, abandoning the idea of a language of predicates. Puntel draws on sources ranging from G. W. Leibniz, German idealism, Heidegger's phenomenology, and even analytic philosophy.[8]

Awards[edit]

Since 1983, he has been a visiting professor at Pittsburgh, Harvard and Princeton. Retired in 2001, in 2016, he received an honorary doctorate from the University of Munich.[9]

He has also received the Findlay Book Prize in 2011.[10]
