161. Developmental trajectories of motor imagery in relation to physical fitness in children aged 7 to 14 years : a ǂ1-year follow-up studyLuka Šlosar, Katarina Puš, Uroš Marušič, 2025, original scientific article Abstract: Motor imagery (MI) is fundamentally linked to the motor system. It improves motor learning and optimizes motor actions without physical execution, highlighting its unique role in rehabilitation programs and motor performance. Understanding the developmental trajectories of MI and the factors influencing its variability across ages could enable more effective, age-specific strategies for pediatric rehabilitation. This study assessed 65 children aged 7 to 14 years at two time points 1 year apart. MI ability was assessed using the Movement Imagery Questionnaire for Children, and physical fitness was evaluated using the SLOfit testing battery. Among the three perspectives assessed; internal visual imagery (IVI), external visual imagery (EVI), and kinesthetic imagery (KI), KI was unique in not correlating with age at both time points. The development of MI perspectives varied between athletes and non-athletes, with non-athletes showing a decline in IVI compared with athletes. This differential was further evidenced by significant differences in KI between the groups at the second assessment, with a similar trend observed at the first assessment. Of the physical fitness tests, only the 600-m run correlated consistently with KI at both assessments. Our findings suggest that regular participation in sports significantly affects KI performance, highlighting the importance of sports participation for the development of MI abilities in children. Future research should examine additional assessment points in different age groups and sport experience to better understand the development of MI and its potential implications for pediatric rehabilitation.

167. Finks phänomenologische Auslegung des Schematismus-Kapitels in der Kritik der reinen VernunftAlexander Schnell, 2022, original scientific article Abstract: Fink’s Phenomenological Interpretation of the Schematism Chapter in Critique of Pure Reason
Fink’s phenomenological interpretation of the chapter “Von dem Schematismus der reinen Verstandesbegriffe [Of the Schematism of the Pure Conceptions of the Understanding]” (schematism chapter) in Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason represents a significant contribution to how the relation between being and time can be thought phenomenologically. In a reading closely based on Kant’s text, the essay reconstructs how Fink highlights the fundamental relation of time, imagination, and ego.

168. „Torweg Augenblick“ : Zu Finks Nietzsche-DeutungCathrin Nielsen, 2022, original scientific article Abstract: “Gateway, This Moment.” On Fink’s Interpretation of Nietzsche
Nietzsche interests Fink as a thinker in whom a new “experience of the world” emerges through the historical trajectories, the narrative, and the language of metaphysics—in its question horizon and yet at the same time beyond it. This, however, does not simply replace the metaphysical worldview, but is fought out in the playing field of that difference which, according to Fink, is the “metaphor of all metaphysics”: the ontological comparative. On the one hand, Nietzsche takes this playing field into account by absolutizing it in the thought of the “will to power” as the movement of all being in time; on the other hand, he undermines it in the thought of the “eternal return of the same” as time as such and thus leads it to its limit. This is narrowly brought about in the image of the “gateway, This Moment” from Zarathustra, which Fink interprets as a “bumping into each other’s heads” of ontology (being) and cosmology (time) or as a breakthrough of the post-metaphysical thought of the “world wholeness” in the sense of the “all-encompassing, all-bringing, and all-erasing play-time of the world” into the historical world. In this antagonistic in-between, this “self-reflection,” Nietzsche’s confrontation with metaphysics takes place—and equally Fink’s interpretation of this confrontation.

169. Individuation und ontologische Erfahrung : Die philosophische Entwicklung des frühen Fink im Lichte seiner Auseinandersetzung mit HeideggerGiovanni Jan Giubilato, 2022, original scientific article Abstract: Individuation and Ontological Experience. The Philosophical Development of the Early Fink in Light of His Confrontation with Heidegger
Eugen Fink’s philosophy confronts us with a complexity of conceptual constellations that, in their integrity, are specifically aimed at a deep questioning of our way of thinking and of the metaphysical foundations of our experience and understanding of the world. Taking account of the newest materials in Fink’s Collected Works, the following paper 1) proposes a brief distinction of the denominations of Eugen Fink’s early philosophical project, in order to describe the basic lines of his philosophy and to characterize its basic features by approaching “the deepest philosophical problem of all,” as Fink itself affirmed, namely the question of individuation. Thereby, the paper will unveil 2) an essential aspect of Fink’s early confrontation with Heidegger, in order to trace the premises and consequences of Fink’s “cosmological thinking.”

170. Tag, Nacht, Zwielicht : Eine Annäherung an Fink und LevinasLutz Niemann, 2022, original scientific article Abstract: Day, Night, Twilight. An Approach to Fink and Levinas
This contribution presents Eugen Fink’s and Emmanuel Levinas’s thought along the metaphors of day and night. Both Fink’s cosmology and the philosophy Levinas developed in Totality and Infinity are read as locating the human being between day (light) and night. The present discussion of their philosophies is guided by the question of how Fink and Levinas, who share the criticism of the metaphysics of light, try to overcome it. Special emphasis is put on the notions of unity and difference as well as the notion of totality. Further, both try to break the totalizing tendency of light by radically thinking the infinite. First, Fink’s cosmology is presented. In a second step, Levinas’s thinking from Totality and Infinity is discussed. A juxtaposition of both attempts marks the conclusion of the paper.
