Secularization, a valid category? : A reappraisal of the Löwith-Blumenberg debate around the rise of modernity
Abstract: Karl Löwith’s Meaning in History presents the emergence of modern philosophy of history as a secularization of medieval theology of history. His thesis holds that modern historical consciousness transposes into the immanent frame a constitutively transcendent element: the Christian history of salvation. In The Legitimacy of the Modern Age Hans Blumenberg impugns Löwith’s theory, by arguing that it works on the erroneous assumption that there would be a substantial content originally possessed by medieval Christianity and only later illegitimately appropriated by modernity.

Resumen: En El sentido de la historia, Karl Löwith presenta el surgimiento de la filosofía moderna de la historia como una secularización de la teología de la historia medieval. Su tesis sostiene que la conciencia histórica moderna transpone a un marco inmanente un elemento constitutivamente trascendente: la historia cristiana de la salvación. En La legitimación de la Edad Moderna Hans Blumenberg impugna la teoría de Löwith, argumentando que ésta funciona basada en la suposición errónea de que habría un contenido sustancial, originalmente propiedad del cristianismo medieval y sólo después ilegítimamente apropiado por la modernidad. 2020-12-15T18:32:31Z 2020-12-15T18:32:31Z 2020 Artículo Torbidoni, J.
