Comte, where metaphysics is perceived as a hybrid form of thinking, combining a scientific form and archaic mythological content, secondly, classical Marxism, in which metaphysics, as a way of thinking, is opposed to dialectics, and thirdly, philosophy of M. Heidegger, for whom metaphysics is the era of “oblivion of being” in the history of Western European thought. All these relations are negative; however, it does not follow from this that the intellectual culture of metaphysics is not in demand by modern philosophy
