Identidad o confluencia. Apuntes para una interpretación de la relación entre pensar y ser en Parménides

Abstract

This article analyzes, in a historic-speculative key, the relation between being and thinking in Parmenides, from what has been called the “second beginning” of Metaphysics. This proposal argues that it would have gone from a science of the first being to a science of the first known. From these possible Metaphysics, two interpretations of that relation arise, one that affirms the identity between being and thinking, and one that suggests their confluence. The latter position would be closer to a Metaphysics of the first known and would also allow to propose a comprehension of being that would be more comprehensive than that of the Metaphysics of the first being.
