Holz I 13
Metaphysics/Leibniz/Holz: the inner unity of Leibniz's work can only be understood from metaphysics.
His position lies between Kant and Hegel: he shows LeibnizVsKant: the alternative of metaphysics as a science, by showing his method.
>
Metaphysics/Kant.
LeibnizVsHegel: he shows the possibility of metaphysics, which is not based on an absolutely idealistic way.
I 24
Metaphysics/Holz: with Leibniz, it receives the scientific theory form of a non-empirically verifiable theory of the general connexion of the world. They are no longer "ideas" of the whole, but trans-empirical construction of the most plausible and most explanatory form.
I 81
Metaphysics/Leibniz: since that looks like a circle, Descartes, for example, sought a justification in God.
But metaphysically, the circle cannot be dissolved, for metaphysics rests precisely on an unbroken link! >
Chain/Leibniz.
The circle is also preserved logically.
The system has to be interrupted somewhere:
Solution/Leibniz: an ineluctable function of sensory perception - not as a "first reason," but as an extra-logical material beginning of the reflexion ratio, as a quasi "Archimedean point" (outside).
>
Sensory impresssion/Leibniz.
Leibniz is well aware of this break.
For its part, the metaphysical necessity can no longer be deduced from reasons.
I 82
Metaphysics/Leibniz/Holz: in the realm of reasons of truths (for example, mathematics) the reduction is real possible to the identity principle.
>
Identity/Leibniz.
I 119
Leibniz thesis: the structural character of the monad causes that something is happening. The structure guarantees the unity of being and is the being of unity.
Metaphysics/Unity/World/Ultimate justification/Leibniz: the concept of the individual is a world concept. For this reason, the inner-world scientific justification given to the particular in its particularity is dependent on a metaphysical (underlying) principle which makes the being of the world intelligible.
