A sustained self-submitting\u003c\/p\u003e   \u003cp\u003eattentiveness, however, discloses its language as resonating disturbingly\u003c\/p\u003e   \u003cp\u003emodern notes, focusing our attention on many of our pathologies as well as\u003c\/p\u003e   \u003cp\u003eour possibilities, pathologies and possibilities that have escaped the\u003c\/p\u003e   \u003cp\u003enotice of us moderns. The spirit of quiet hermeneutics that characterizes\u003c\/p\u003e   \u003cp\u003ethis study illumines many an opaque spot in this text, solves many an\u003c\/p\u003e   \u003cp\u003einterpretive puzzle, turns many of its 'archaic naivetes' into living and\u003c\/p\u003e   \u003cp\u003ecompelling profundities. We are made to realize that what some moderns call\u003c\/p\u003e   \u003cp\u003eGestell is far more primordial than they would envisage it to be, far more\u003c\/p\u003e   \u003cp\u003eominous and primitive, tragic and persistent. A radical transformation is\u003c\/p\u003e   \u003cp\u003erequired, an ontological transformation.\u003c\/p\u003e    \u003cp\u003eNot mere 'a masterly exposition' of an ancient text is, therefore, this\u003c\/p\u003e   \u003cp\u003estudy, but 'an authentic springboard for fresh philosophical thinking\u003c\/p\u003e   \u003cp\u003efecundating (the) two shores of the human experience: East and West'.
