The Determinant: THAT - Provisional Research Edition

The Determinant is a provisional research manuscript developing a formal-philosophical account of determination, identity, distinction, recursion, recognition, and return. It proposes a conceptual grammar for how intelligibility, self-reference, and telic movement may be understood across logic, metaphysics, cognition, ethics, and soteriology. This version is a provisional release for citation and further revision, not a peer-reviewed final edition. Personal autobiographical material is excluded

Abstract

The Determinant is a provisional research manuscript developing a formal-philosophical account of determination, identity, distinction, recursion, recognition, and return. It proposes a conceptual grammar for how intelligibility, self-reference, and telic movement may be understood across logic, metaphysics, cognition, ethics, and soteriology. This version is a provisional release for citation and further revision, not a peer-reviewed final edition. Personal autobiographical material is excluded
