I need help with transcribing some German and English texts from collection of Heinrich Blucher. I cannot say how old are these texts but I think they are from 1940s/50s. 

There are 6 texts, 5 short and one long. Some of there are English and some of there are German. It will be great if someone will help with them.

Update:
Text 1 (German) (Done)

Text 2 (English) (Done)

Text 3 (English and German) (Done)

Text 4 (English and Latin) (Uncomplete, I will post a Question about that Latin words)

Text 5 (German) (Done)

Text 6 (English and German) (Needs edits, see Kathy H.'s transcription)

It's definitely not "agonies": the second letter is not "g".

Matyáš, I'd like to suggest that editing the original question without a note of what has changed can be quite confusing. It may be better to comment under the individual answers.
You're right, sorry.

All these aporias[?] [German singular: aporie] and conflicting theories 

are but reflections, a kind of super-

structure of the real[ity] apory [aporia?] in

which  a) the will finds itself the mo-

the will gets into with thinking as

an existential attitude.  Notably{?}

the will itself produces its antagonist

in the counter will, but the thinking

Thank You very much Kathy, you really help me with these texts. Just one thing:

About that Text 3, I have your transcription and one volunteer send me his transcription of that text. So, I compare your version and his version and this is the finished transcription:

table -- of course with the other causes. Only

true for natural things. The table has as its

origin not a cause but a causator, Keine

ist der Mensch, der beginnen kann,

weil er selbst einen Aufang in ein Ende

hat.

Could that be "apories" and "apory", presumably a variant of aporia, a conundrum, contradiction, or declaration of doubt?

Just so.
Thank You Very much Nick

No worries. wink
