In this work I move from a precise critical review of Adriano Fabris’ work Etica e ambiguità. Una filosofia della coerenza (Morcelliana, Brescia 2020), with special reference to the notion of ambiguity as he introduces and discuss es it. I particularly concentrate on the definition o f “philosophy” given in the work and the reconstruction of its fundamental difficulties. My aim is to show that in order to overcome such difficulties, an alternative picture of philosophy should be finally given, moving from a clear awareness of the fundamental misunderstanding from which its usual definition originates . I also give some hints as to the ethnocentric character of (Western modern) philosophy , also concealed in its pretension to universality.

Abstract
In this work I move from a precise critical review of Adriano Fabris’ work Etica e ambiguità. Una filosofia della coerenza (Morcelliana, Brescia 2020), with special reference to the notion of ambiguity as he introduces and discuss es it. I particularly concentrate on the definition o f “philosophy” given in the work and the reconstruction of its fundamental difficulties. My aim is to show that in order to overcome such difficulties, an alternative picture of philosophy should be finally given, moving from a clear awareness of the fundamental misunderstanding from which its usual definition originates . I also give some hints as to the ethnocentric character of (Western modern) philosophy , also concealed in its pretension to universality.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
