Prosophy. After Philosophy

Since a few decades we, the Westerners, have entered a post-philosophical age - the long struggle to achieve truth, method, logos, reason, etc. yielding to local narratives and reasonable agreements on a neo-pragmatic basis. Relativism grants poor overall direction, however. In front of the global community of diversities, the judicious relativist faces the future as a rather blind journey. An all-encompassing grasp is still what one intelligent being is entitled to look for and should care about. The postmodern demise of philosophy leaves a void that we had better fill with a new overall conception, one open to pluralism while still eager for the comprehensive understanding long sought after by past masters. A basic convergence of all-human concepts over a seedbed of welcome difference is what prosophy keeps looking for.
