%X The article is an attempt to collect and present the basic outlines of Vanja Sutli ¡¯s philosophy, that is, the ¡°historical thinking¡±, as he named it, and which is in its intention post-philosophical and trans-philosophical. The starting point of the historical thinking is contained in the attitude that the Being, the essence of the man and the essence of a being are only in the relationship, from the relationship, and by the relationship. The all preceding relationship must not be considered as purely abstract and formal, but as a living, dynamic framework, in the sense of what is understood by one of the leading words of the early Greek thought ¨C harmonia. As the moments of the framework, the Being, the essence of the man and the essence of a being, in their entirety truly never are, but are always becoming, specifically, in the one-time historical-epochal constellation, i.e. in the historical event that is always essentially individuated. Sutli  finds the source of the relationship as such i.e. the historical event, in what was in the philosophical tradition considered and defined s ¡°nothing¡±. It is in the ¡°nothing¡± that he, deviating from the traditional definition in the sense of negation and absence (privatio), recognizes the positive, powerful and enabling occurrence of the historical individuation of the worlds, which is before all present in the essence of what we know as time and freedom.
