Philosophy releases sedimented energy by disrupting habitual familiarity
Evidence
By that double and slanting movement of the incline which ties together the subject and its accidents, a movement which summons the reader to lean from one moment of the history of subjectivity to the other, the speculative proposition brings back to life the sedimented depths of an ontological deployment and, by fluidifying them, releases their energy. In its role as ‘fall’, as ordeal and trial, philosophy sparks off a necessary anamnesis that undoes spirit from its alienated relation to the familiar and well-known, which drives it away from the customs of the doxa, thus involving it in the work of recomposing new habits, new hermeneutical habits. — Catherine Malabou, The Future of Hegel, 1267
