Abstract:

The final event, the Hegelian Absolute or Heideggerian Ereignis, is at the core of modern ontologies, as a heritage of a messianic or eschatological event. Modern ontologies of finitude as eventual ontologies par excéllence is the ruling hypothesis in this paper. But thinking metamorphosis means to think of the world: to change it. If event becomes immanent to the world, it is precisely as a world metamorphosis: not as the metamorphosis surpassing world in order to establish/cancel it, but metamorphosis as its immanent excess.

Keywords: event, eschatology, messianism, messianic logic, finitude, infinitely.
