Jahrhunderts, Note: 2,0, Universität Potsdam (Institut für Philosophie), Veranstaltung: Proseminar; Einführung in die Philosophie, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Lässt sich Gottes Existenz aus reiner Vernunft, unabhängig von der Erfahrung und unabhängig vom religiösen Glauben beweisen? Der Glaube an Gott hat im menschlichen Denken eine lange Tradition und zeigt sich, soweit Zeugnisse Aufschluss geben. Viel jünger hingegen sind die Versuche, diesen Glauben an Göttliches zu rationalisieren und die Existenz Gottes zu beweisen1. Das ontologische Argument ist eines der berühmtesten philosophischen Argumente. Erstmals um 1100 von Anselm von Canterbury formuliert, wurde dieser Beweis in der mittelalterlichen Philosophie neben anderen Beweisen zur Geltung gebracht, bald darauf abgelehnt, bis er mit dem spätmittelalterlichen Nominalismus hinfällig geworden zu sein schien. In der rationalistischen Metaphysik des 17. und 18. Jahrhundert lebte er jedoch wieder auf und wurde als der wichtigste und zentrale Gottesbeweis betrachtet. Er galt entweder als der einzige Weg zur vernünftigen Erkenntnis Gottes oder zumindest als jener Beweis, in den alle anderen Versuche, die Existenz Gottes zu beweisen, mündeten2. Im Folgenden werde ich zunächst einleitend Anselms Versuch, die Existenz Gottes zu beweisen, kurz darstellen und daraufhin die Argumentation Descartes in der 3. und 5. Meditation rekonstruieren und erläutern. In der Diskussion um die Gültigkeit des Beweises werde ich abschließend auf die wesentlichen Einwände der Kritiker eingehen. 1 Vgl.: Röd, Wolfgang.

Download or read book Descartes and the Ontology of Everyday Life written by Deborah J. Brown and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2019-10 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The seventeenth century was a period of extraordinary invention, discovery and revolutions in scientific, social and political orders. It was a time of expansive automation, biological discovery, rapid advances in medical knowledge, of animal trials and a questioning of the boundaries between species, human and non-human, between social classes, and of the assumed naturalness of political inequality. This book gives a tour through those objects, ordinary and extraordinary, which captivated the philosophical imagination of the single most important French philosopher of this period, Rene Descartes. Deborah J. Brown and Calvin G. Normore document Descartes' attempt to make sense of the complex, composite objects of human and divine invention, consistent with the fundamental tenets of his metaphysical system. Their central argument is that, far from reducing all the categories of ordinary experience to the two basic categories of substance, mind and body, Descartes' philosophy recognises irreducible composites that resist reduction, and require their own distinctive modes of explanation.

Book excerpt: Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2011 im Fachbereich Philosophie - Theoretische (Erkenntnis, Wissenschaft, Logik, Sprache), Note: 2,0, Technische Universität Darmstadt (Institut für Philosophie), Veranstaltung: Descartes für Anfänger, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Eine der grundlegenden Fragen der Menschheit ist die nach einem höheren Wesen. Mag dieses höhere Wesen nun Gott, Jahwe, Allah, oder einen sonstigen Namen tragen, versu-chen doch Menschen verschiedenster Herkunft, Bildung oder Standes, die Existenz dieses Wesens zu beweisen oder Beweise für die Existenz einer solch höheren, gar außerirdischen, oder besser überirdischen Macht zu finden. Die Frage nach einem höheren Wesen ist seit je her eine interdisziplinäre Fragestellung, da man diese Fragestellung aus den verschiedensten Blickwinkeln und mit den unter-schiedlichsten Motivationen betrachten kann. So fällt jedem bei der Betrachtung der Fra-ge nach einem höheren Wesen natürlich sofort die Theologie als zuständige wissenschaft-liche Disziplin ein. Jedoch kann man, wenn man etwas länger an der Frage, wer sich mit dieser Themenstellung befasst, verharrt und sich hierüber Gedanken macht, dass auch die Ethnologie, die Philosophie und ja selbst die Naturwissenschaften dieser Frage auf den Grund gehen. Jede sicherlich aus ihrer eigenen Motivation heraus und mit unterschiedli-cher Intensität, jedoch kann jede Disziplin ihren Beitrag zu einem Gottesbeweis leisten. Diese Arbeit, die rein der philosophischen Disziplin Rechnung trägt, wird sich nach einer kurzen Einführung in die Begriffe der Ontologie und einem historischen Abriss der Got-tesbeweise, im Kern mit dem ontologischen Gottesbeweis aus René Descartes ́ „Mediati-onen über die Erste Philosophie“ und dessen Kritik aus Kants Werk „Kritik der reinen Vernunft“ befassen.

Book excerpt: It is not a question of using either the palpable world or the intellect when trying to prove God's existence. Anselm apprehends being's very intelligibility as making it amenable to divine traces - that turn out to be God's «muted» communication. Anselm practices in this sense «a blending of horizons» - i.e. tradition (Plotinus, Augustine, Benedict). We human beings owe our own rationality to the same God who created the universe, us and our minds. The appreciation of a thus constituted reality unleashes a remarkable and refreshing fecundity (Möhler, Guardini, Barth, von Balthasar). Anselm seems to state: «Thinking - insofar as it is intelligible - is being.» This makes Anselm's approach topical for our days. Increasingly the world consists of information and news. Truth claims are filtered from what is thought. Perhaps it is this Anselmic 'reduction' of reality to thought which opens a perspective for genuine emancipation and authentic humanization. The monastery afforded the proper ambience to live and apprehend this 'reduction'.

This book was released on 2017-04-09 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selections from the Principles of Philosophy - Rene Descartes - Translated by John Veitch - Principles of Philosophy is a book by Ren� Descartes. In essence it is a synthesis of the Discourse on Method and Meditations on First Philosophy It was written in Latin, published in 1644 and dedicated to Elisabeth of Bohemia, with whom Descartes had a long-standing friendship. A French version (Les Principes de la Philosophie) followed in 1647. It set forth the principles of nature-the Laws of Physics-as Descartes viewed them. Most notably, it set forth the principle that in the absence of external forces, an object's motion will be uniform and in a straight line. Newton borrowed this principle from Descartes and included it in his own Principia; to this day, it is still generally referred to as Newton's First Law of Motion. The book was primarily intended to replace the Aristotelian curriculum then used in French and British Universities. The work provides a systematic statement of his metaphysics and natural philosophy, and represents the first truly comprehensive, mechanistic account of the universe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Proceedings present the contributions to the 13th International Kant Congress which was held at the University of Oslo, August 6-9, 2019. The congress, which hosted speakers from more than thirty countries and five continents, was dedicated to the topic of the court of reason. The idea that reason stands before itself as a tribunal characterizes the whole of Kant's critical project. Without such a court, reason falls into conflict with itself. With such a court in place, however, it may succeed in establishing the possibility and limits of metaphysics, ethics, aesthetics, law and science. The idea of reason being its own judge is not only pivotal to a proper understanding of Kant's philosophy, but can also shed light on the burgeoning fields of meta-philosophy and philosophical methodology. The 2019 Kant Congress put special emphasis on Kant's methodology, his account of conceptual critique, and the relevance of his ideas to current issues in especially political philosophy and the philosophy of law. Additional sections discussed a wide range of topics in Kant's philosophy. The Proceedings will provide anyone who is interested in exploring the variety of present-day work on Kant and Kantian themes with a wealth of fruitful inspiration.
