description

Human being exists in the flow of time and where there is interaction between time, space and energy there is some rhythm. Physical sciences tend to attribute to rhythm a mechanical overtone but phenomenology of life shows a rhythm in the context of logos and life. Phenomenology of life describes logos of life realizing in time, place and creative acts. Concept of creativity developed by Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka is similar to concept of energy recognized by Lefebvre. It means that we can investigate the problem of meaning of rhythm at the logos and life as creative experience. Rhythms appear as cosmic, natural, psychological, cultural, social and can be described as: (1) a repetition of movements, situations, acts; (2) cyclical processes of development or decay, (3) living beings birth, growth, decline, death, (4) philosophical ideas of cyclical time and eternal recurrence. Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka rhythm describes: (a) cycles, (b) pulsations, (c) circuit, (d) recurrence, (e) the swings of pendulum (analysis of literary works). Idea of eternal recurrence as cosmic/human being’s rhythm mainly is developed at Nietzsche’s philosophy.
