Mehr Infos"The other CoSMoS" presents a comprehensive alternative to the dominant mechanistic-materialistic world-picture of modernity.
Drawing on Goethe, Nietzsche, Giordano Bruno, and his own "radial field theory", Kirchhoff argues that the universe is not an empty, dead space but a living, soul-imbued and spiritual organism in which humanity, as the "cosmic anthropos", remains essentially embedded. Key concepts include the "radial field" (in place of linear causality), the "light of nature" as the primordial source of consciousness, and the overcoming of the Copernican trauma that banished Earth and human beings from the centre of being.
The book sharply critiques the reductionism of the natural sciences, the theory of relativity, the Big Bang hypothesis, and, above all, nuclear power as expressions of a Promethean, life-denying attitude. At the same time, it offers positive impulses for an expanded consciousness that regards art, music, and mystical experience as pathways to reclaiming the "other cosmos".
The reader finds a passionate plea for a return to a holistic, meaning-giving understanding of the world that once again thinks nature, spirit, and cosmos together as a living whole.
