Per un’“archeologia filosofica” della secolarizzazione. Agostino, Gioacchino da Fiore e i paradigmi cristiani del pensiero secolare
Abstract
This article aims to demonstrate that both secular and Protestant thinking of secularization are founded on a Christian and pre-Reformed “ruin” (as this notion is understood within Giorgio Agamben’s “philosophical archaeology”). In fact, it is shown that the thought of secularization and its path of rupture and criticism of religion have their foundation in pre-Reformation Christianity, and are already found, albeit in two completely opposite ways, in Augustine and Joachim of Fiore.
