The text examines the ontological problem of the whole and its distinction from a mere aggregate or pile of elements. The author criticizes the common perception that a whole is simply composed of parts, suggesting instead that it should be viewed as something grown together. This idea finds its roots in the teachings of Heraclitus of Ephesus, who employed the concept of LOGOS to define true wholeness. The study highlights the semantic shifts of this term, which was reinterpreted in later centuries through Jewish and Christian traditions, obscuring its original meaning. Given that only fragments of pre-Socratic works have survived without broader context, interpreting the original conception of LOGOS is a challenging task. The author emphasizes the necessity of a bold reconstruction of these ancient ideas, requiring creative re-thinking and an effort to find deeper meaning within the history of philosophy. The aim is to understand what differentiates a genuine whole from a mere sum of its parts through the progression of time.
