解説
An exploration of language, knowledge, and evolution that unifies philosophy, science, and paradox into a single transformative vision of reality.
What if the deepest problems of philosophy-language, mind, time, evolution, and reality itself-were not separate puzzles, but expressions of a single underlying structure?
In Knowledge, Evolution and Paradox, Koen DePryck advances a bold and integrative framework that challenges the limits of postmodern skepticism and fragmented academic discourse. Drawing on insights from iterative, chaotic, and probabilistic processes in nature and computation, DePryck proposes a new way to understand how meaning, knowledge, and reality co-emerge through language.
At its core, this work confronts enduring philosophical tensions:
How can multiple disciplinary "worlds" belong to one world?
How do language-games relate across apparent incommensurability?What is the role of paradox and self-reference in thought and reality?
And how can mind and consciousness be understood as embodied, evolving phenomena?
DePryck develops an ambitious interdisciplinary synthesis that bridges the sciences and humanities, offering not only a critique of postmodern limits but a constructive alternative grounded in evolutionary and systemic thinking.
