Por uma metafísica de tramas: o mundo sem arché

This work draws a distinction between a metaphysics of landscapes and a metaphysics of plots. According to the former, the metaphysical endeavor aims to achieve a privileged external perspective with which we could come up with a complete and finished image of the world. According to the latter, the metaphysical endeavor aims to explore from within the plot produced by the joint implementation of different landscapes. The work puts forward and favors the latter showing that they have resources to (at least partially) face the worries that trigger the unease towards metaphysical endeavors in general. The last part of the work illustrates the concept of metaphysics of plots by putting forward a sketch of a realist stance towards indexicals, dispositions and perspectives.
