Abstract: “Visual” idealism. Master Eckhart and George Berkeley. Within the frame of Meister Eckhart’s mysticism, the eye is the symbol of the intellect (either divine or human, but uncreated). Also, for Eckhart, the ego pertains most properly to God and the vision the mystic is able to have on the world gets realized through the union of the uncreated human intellect with God. Consequently, every mystical vision of the world takes place through God’s intellectual eye. As for the divine eye, it takes a creative look at the things: thanks to this look, created things do not collapse into nothingness (Sermon allemand 4). As a pure nothingness, every created thing exists only because it is perceived (esse est percipi). The Eckhartian problem of the mystical union raise that of the univocity of the cognitive subject, developed through the Cartesian cogito, as well as within Berkeley’s idealism. Key Words: idealism; oculus (eye); forma (form); formalism; ougenblick/Augenblick (glance of the eye); mind; esse est percipi; Maître Eckhart; George Berkeley. |
