Quietisme (filsafat)Kaum quietis filosofis berupaya membebaskan manusia dari kebingungan mendalam yang kerap ditimbulkan oleh perenungan filsafat.
Quietisme dalam Filsafat memandang peran filsafat terutama sebagai suatu pendekatan yang terapeutik atau bersifat penyembuhan.[1] Para filsuf quietis berkeyakinan bahwa filsafat tidak memiliki tesis positif yang dapat ditawarkan; sebaliknya, ia berfungsi meredakan kebingungan dalam kerangka bahasa maupun konsep pada berbagai bidang lain, termasuk filsafat non-quietis.[2]
Bagi kaum quietis, mengembangkan pengetahuan atau menyelesaikan perdebatan—khususnya perdebatan antara kaum realis dan anti-realis[3]—bukanlah tugas utama filsafat. Sebaliknya, filsafat dipandang seharusnya membebaskan pikiran dengan cara mendiagnosis konsep-konsep yang membingungkan.[4]
