In his former work titled The Essence of Manifestation Michel Henry tries to investigate the hidden nature of being itself in its principle, “before” its “coming out” as a phenomenon.

Abstract

In his former work titled The Essence of Manifestation Michel Henry tries to investigate the hidden nature of being itself in its principle, “before” its “coming out” as a phenomenon. Starting from the problems left opened by the Husserlian and Heideggerian phenomenology, the French thinker approaches the question of the essence of being as a pure origin that lies beyond the light that makes it possible for the manifestation to show itself. In this sense, the dialectic of light and shadow is recalled as it illustrates the relationship between the manifestation and its essence. In this frame Henry analyses Eckhart’s mystical thought in order to rediscover the sense of an original shadow as the origin of light. Thus, Eckhart gives to Michel Henry’s course the opportunity to deepen the essence of being in its originality as that Gottheit which is the original status of mystical relationship between man and God itself.
