Summary/Abstract: It is certainly nothing new to reveal in the modern philosophic thought that the sources of its understanding of the phenomenon of the modern world are in the sign of the Descartes-Hegel’s determination of the thought for substance (substantia). Cogito ergo sum and the first principle of the method of awareness to start from that which is indubitably that in which in awareness one does not ask about further, these are at least those two found fundaments from which the overall and uniform architecture of the modern world is produced. We primarily mean the creation as that punctum in which homo faber, homo economicus, homo consumens, homo philosophicus, homo sapiens, s first homo creans. Establishment of a man as a creator models the forms of the world which are harmonized, emancipated only according to the indubitable “point” that the man is existent. The modern world has institutionalized the link between the affirmation and neutralization of man into a hypocrisy of joy and hope for a creation of the new. Repeatedly new as the proof of the power of man-creator: “The man is the Spirit who can never judge the largesse and the power of his spirit” (Hegel).
