Spirit and Freedom
Lavaud, Claudie
Spirit and Freedom - 2001.
35
Claude Bruaire has never ceased to dialogue with two major authors, Hegel and Schelling. The synthesis revolves around two main pairs of concepts, being and spirit on the one hand, freedom and negativity on the other. The negative thought of indeterminate and ineffable Infinity must be turned into a positive metaphysics. The latter suggests thinking of being as spirit which is freedom, and freedom itself must be thought of as a reversal of Hegelian negativity into the affirmative power of the Schellingian Absolute. Trinitarian speculation then takes place, in Bruaire’s way of thinking, as a “Christian arousing” of philosophy, opening into a metaphysics of spirit as gift, an “ontodology.”
