Hannah Arendt: "What Has Come To An End"

Hannah Arendt

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hannah_Arendt

"What has come to an end is the distinction between the sensual and the supersensual, together with the notion, at least as old as Parmenides, that whatever is not given to the senses... is more real, more truthful, more meaningful than what appears; that it is not just beyond sense perception but above the world of the senses... In increasingly strident voices, the few defenders of metaphysics have warned us of the danger of nihilsim inherent in this development. The sensual... cannot survive the death of the supersensual."  Hannah Arendt
