Summary/Abstract: Waldenfels’ thematization of modernity, beginning with an insight into the tradition of philosophical thought, presents modernity in alienation as the central feature of its entire history. Various aspects of philosophical thought, different motives and possibilities of reflecting on reality intermingle here. Experience thus appears as the locus of encounter with the world, the place from which the living world develops in all the directions that realistically define it. In this thematization, the alien appears as the dynamic force of the self, which makes experience its own premise for the encounter with the world. Thus it is that the thematization of modernity, understood through alienation, manifests itself in Waldenfels in one meaning of the initial potential for philosophical thought, where philosophy has both the need and the responsibility to respond to the requirement to understand the quotidian.
