Abstract
The main goal of the present work is to address the reception of Dionysius Areopagite´s Thought practiced by Jean-Luc Marion, concentrating, first of all, on his peculiar interpretation of Dionysian theology as a pragmatic and performative language, as it appears in his writing Le visible et le révélé (2005). There we will show how his appropriation of pragmatism finds two aspects: on the one hand, what we could call Dionysian pragmatism, and on the other hand, the discussion of it with the theory of Speech Acts by Austin and Searle. From all this is derived the conception of the erotic phenomenon and the expression “I love you” as a perlocutory act. Secondly, and in light of Marion's latest formulation of the phenomenology of donation as a doubler la métaphysique in his book La métaphysique et après (2023), we will argue that his reception of the Christian Neoplatonism of Dionysius the Areopagite as a language pragmatic and performative can be read as a paradigmatic case of this new position towards metaphysics.
