Abstract(s)
O presente ensaio propõe uma específica definição do conceito de “labirinto” enquanto possível
modelo para uma nova forma de conhecimento que recupere a dimensão unitiva do saber, perdida ao longo
da História. Assim, apresenta-se um percurso retrospetivo, partindo da criação do labirinto clássico e do
papel do Minotauro e avançando para o exemplo de Comenius, através do seu caminho em direção ao
“paraíso do coração”. Como ponto conclusivo, pretende-se apresentar a proposta de uma utopia para o
conhecimento que permita a junção da “emoção” à “razão”, numa unidade capaz de estabelecer uma
colaboração efetiva entre diversas áreas do saber.
The present essay proposes a specific definition of the concept of "labyrinth" as a possible model for a new form of knowledge that recovers the unitive dimension of knowledge, lost throughout history. Thus, a retrospective path is presented, starting from the creation of the classic labyrinth and the role of the Minotaur and advancing to the example of Comenius, through his path towards the “paradise of the heart”. As a conclusive point, we intend to present the proposal of a utopia for knowledge that allows the joining of “emotion” to “reason”, in a unit capable of establishing an effective collaboration between different areas of knowledge.
