There have always been ontologies in the history of philosophy. The ontology is a way (logos) by which Being shows itself. There are many such ways, and the ontology is only one of them. We can think the ontology as a structure of Being, logos and aletheia.In the classical ontology, aletheia changed into true knowledge, logos changed into contemplating "it is"(logically speaking), and physis changed into Being. The first problem in the ontology is that in order to make the knowledge be true, what does Being have to be. All kinds of ontologies are the different answers to it But the ontology has not been solving the most difficult problem that how can we solve the contradiction between the logical Being and physis. So we have to turn the classical ontology.Then we can see the roads to transcendence of Hegel, Wittgenstein and Marx's in this thesis. There are some same points in these roads: first, the true knowledge has not been the center of the ontology; second, logos has not been only logically speaking, we can also speak on Being in other ways; third, we begin to connect Being and our true existence; last, the ontology has not been the king of all the knowledge, it belongs to Being itself. In these roads, Marx's practical ontology is more hopeful.
