Vyksmo ontologija, arba gyvenimas be substancijos, V. Krėvės „Raganiuje“Item type:Publication, [Ontology of happening or life without substance in the sorcerer by V. Krėvė]research article[2016][S4][H001][31]Žmogus ir žodis / Man and the Word, 2016, vol. 18, no. 4, p. 51-81The article develops the ontology of happening, which is contrasted to the ontology of substance. It is deconstructed, leaving the playfulness of accidencies, insubordinate to the centre of substance. The tyrannical and democratic outlooks to the world are compared. The first is associated with the Western metaphysical tradition, which imposes its concepts on the reality, whereas the second imposes nothing on the reality and recognises the democracy of things. The ontology of happening sees the world without a stable ground and proposes acausal universe, whose thinking model is rooted in the playfulness of D. Hume’s billiard balls. The Great happening is revealed as the origin of the universe. It is recognised that after the deconstruction of substance is revealed, free playfulness of accidencies brings you closer to love as the nerve of God that gives and loves without retaining or holding back anything. In this respect, the non-substantial and non-traditional concept of God is stated. Life, not retaining or holding back anything, is depicted in V. Krėvė’s story The Sorcerer. Rich farmers are presented as people of substance, and the sorcerer Kasys Gugis as a substanceless person.
