Manual for Ontic Existenzists

This text, which I define as the 'Manual for Ontic Existenzists', is an open work of completion, synthesis, and practical suggestions for the Ontic Existenzists who have already read the 'Manifesto Ontico' (in Italian). Therefore, it also contains a brief Lexicon where the fundamental Ontic concepts and terms are succinctly explained and summarized. This Manual can nonetheless be read before the 'Manifesto', even though it was written after it; the two texts complement each other. This book, in addition to providing a synthesis of the Manifesto, is also its continuation. Each of us, as long as we live, exists as a subject; the Existenzist, rather than merely enduring existence, turns it into an art form. Existence is the primary value for those who are Ontic. The Manual does not prescribe recipes for happiness, but offers suggestions based on subjective experience. While in the Manifesto I presented Ontics in its various aspects of doctrine and discipline, experience and experiment, theory and praxis, hermeneutics and episteme, the Manual serves above all to put into practice what is examined in the Manifesto, to lead Existence in an Ontic way until it becomes a work of art.
