Kontinuiista

Kontinuiista is a term that has seen limited but notable usage in philosophical discussions, particularly within certain existentialist and phenomenological circles. It generally refers to the idea of continuity as a fundamental aspect of existence or consciousness. This concept posits that there is an unbroken flow or interconnectedness to experience, identity, or being itself. Rather than viewing existence as a series of discrete moments or events, the kontinuiista perspective emphasizes their seamless progression and the persistent underlying fabric that links them.

The term is not widely established and its meaning can vary depending on the specific philosopher or context. However, at its core, it challenges notions of radical discontinuity or fragmentation in human experience. Some interpretations might draw parallels to Henri Bergson's concept of duration or to certain ideas in process philosophy, which highlight the dynamic and ever-changing nature of reality as a continuous unfolding. It suggests that despite apparent breaks or changes, there is an essential continuity that preserves a sense of self or world. The implications of this view often touch upon questions of memory, personal identity over time, and the coherence of subjective experience.
