CARDONA SUAREZ, Luis Fernando. THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE METAPHYSICA NATURALIS IN TO METAPHOROLOGY. Univ. philos. [online]. 2017, vol.34, n.68, pp.39-79. ISSN 0120-5323.  https://doi.org/10.11144/Javeriana.uph34-68.tmnm.

In this text the Kantian transformation of the meaning of metaphysics will be examined in the light of Hans Blumenberg’s metaphorology. First, I will shed light on the notion of metaphysica naturalis proposed in the Critique of Pure Reason and then show how the program of metaphorology assumes this formulation, but not in the same sense as Joachin Ritter’s project of a history of concepts. Second, I propose to examine why according to Blumenberg the production of metaphors can be construed as a specific anthropological function. Finally, I will argue that the historical unfolding of the natural disposition of man to pose questions that he cannot answer, nor refuse, since they arise from his own nature, constitutes the flux of metaphor in the life-world
