immanence

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Immanence ( Latin immanere , 'to remain in it', 'to cling to') denotes that which is contained in things and which results from their individual and objective mode of existence. It is the opposite of transcendence . The adjective immanent denotes a property inherent in an object that has therefore not been inferred by inference or interpretation.

history

The scholastic distinction immanent acts that relate to the actor, of transcendent, pointing beyond the actor. Furthermore, immanence means:

  • in Spinoza's philosophy the presence of God in the world as the cause of all effects
  • According to Kant , from an epistemological point of view, remaining within the limits of possible experience ( KrV B 352 and B 671)
  • in Schelling , who held up to Spinoza a reification of beings and thus a determinism , the inclusion of the finite (naturalism = immanence) in the absolute (theism = transcendence) as a precondition for freedom, since everything is contained in God and man is a reflex of God
  • in Edmund Husserl's phenomenology, the sphere of undoubted givens, nature as transcendence in appearance as immanence
  • with Hegel it refers to the being that makes itself out of itself.
  • in Karl Jasper's Dasein, consciousness in general and spirit as the three immanent modes of the encompassing that form the subject
  • for Gilles Deleuze the basic concept of a difference- theoretical ontology , which he equated with life

In the spirit of Spinoza, Goethe wrote in 1812:

“What would a god be, who would only push from the outside,
In a circle let the universe run on the finger!
It befits him to move the world within,
nature in itself, to cherish in nature,
so that what lives and weaves and is in him
never misses his strength, never his spirit. "
