Book Escepticismo  metaf  sica y argumentaci  n

Download or read book Escepticismo metaf sica y argumentaci n written by Sergio Daniel Vázquez Hernández and published by . This book was released on 2024-02-29 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro recopila siete estudios que discuten algunas de las aportaciones de Aristóteles, Platón y Sexto Empírico en temas de argumentación filosófica, tiempo, causalidad y escepticismo radical. Algunas de las preguntas que abordo incluyen: ¿Qué papel debe tener la metáfora y la analogía en el discurso filosófico? ¿Cuáles son los presupuestos éticos de una discusión filosófica abierta y productiva y por qué a veces fracasa? ¿Cuál es el alcance y qué se debe responder ante el escepticismo radical? ¿Es el tiempo una categoría fundamental para comprender la realidad? ¿Qué es una causa y cuántos tipos hay? El interés por la argumentación filosófica atraviesa todos los capítulos del libro. Sin embargo, este temaes más prominente en los caps. 1, 3, 4 y 5. Hay tres capítulos que analizan de manera detallada diversos aspectos de la metafísica Platónica, incluyendo la causalidad en el Sofista (cap. 4) y Fedón (cap. 6), así como el concepto del tiempo en el contexto de la cosmogonía del Timeo (cap. 8). Una tercera terna de capítulos desarrollan el escepticismo de Sexto Empírico (cap. 2, 5 y 7). Todos los capítulos fueron publicados con anterioridad en revistas especializadas y compilaciones en el lapso de doce años (de 2009 a 2022). Cinco capítulos fueron publicados originalmente en inglés, y presento aquí una traducción al español para poner estos textos al alcance de lectores hispanoparlantes. Los otros tres capítulos fueron publicados en libros y revistas en español y presento ahora una versión que corregida.

Download or read book Ensayos de metaf sica tica y po tica written by Héctor Zagal Arreguín and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ensayos de Metafísica, Ética y Poética. Los argumentos de Aristóteles contiene una colección de ensayos que pasan revista a cuestiones como la argumentación de los principios, la naturaleza del conocimiento moral y el valor de otras formas de conocimiento o racionalidades alternas.En la primera parte del libro se intenta mostrar que el sentido común es el modus operandi de Aristóteles. Los ensayos recogidos en la segunda parte tratan con la argumentación en una ciencia en particular: la ética. Finalmente, el largo artículo Metáfora, definición y obscuridad en Aristóteles conforma toda la tercera parte. El texto es un escrutinio de la función de la metáfora analógica dentro de la metafísica y ciencia aristotélica, para determinar si es un tipo de conocimiento válido y analizable.

  • Publisher : State University of New York Press
  • Release : 2014-12-01
  • ISBN : 1438453795
  • Pages : 126 pages

Download or read book Manifesto of New Realism written by Maurizio Ferraris and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2014-12-01 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philosophical realism has taken a number of different forms, each applied to different topics and set against different forms of idealism and subjectivism. Maurizio Ferraris's Manifesto of New Realism takes aim at postmodernism and hermeneutics, arguing against their emphasis on reality as constructed and interpreted. While acknowledging the value of these criticisms of traditional, dogmatic realism, Ferraris insists that the insights of postmodernism have reached a dead end. Calling for the discipline to turn its focus back to truth and the external world, Ferraris's manifesto—which sparked lively debate in Italy and beyond—offers a wiser realism with social and political relevance.

Book Still reading Hegel  200 years after the phenomenology of spirit

Download or read book Still reading Hegel 200 years after the phenomenology of spirit written by Edmundo Balsemão Pires and published by Imprensa da Universidade de Coimbra / Coimbra University Press. This book was released on 2009-02-01 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Associando-se a um amplo movimento comemorativo europeu e norte-americano, o Instituto de Estudos Filosóficos, com sede na Faculdade de Letras da Universidade de Coimbra, em colaboração com a unidade de I&D L.I.F. – Linguagem, Interpretação e Filosofia e com o “Centro de Filosofia” da Universidade de Lisboa organizou nos dias 19 e 20 de Novembro de 2007 um Congresso Internacional comemorativo dos 200 anos da Fenomenologia do Espírito de G. W. F. Hegel, obra publicada inicialmente em 1807. Por ocasião deste congresso, a comunidade filosófica portuguesa teve a grata oportunidade de se confrontar com algumas das mais recentes orientações de análise da obra do filósofo, pondo-se a si mesma à prova quanto às suas aptidões analíticas. Aqui se deixa o retrato de um tal encontro, tanto quanto possível fiel ao que foram, na altura, as exposições dos diferentes autores. In conjunction with a broad commemorative movement in Europe and America, the Institute for Philosophical Studies, based at the Faculty of Letters, University of Coimbra, in collaboration with the R&D unit L.I.F. – Language, Interpretation and Philosophy and with the “Centre for Philosophy” of the University of Lisbon organized on 19th and 20th November 2007 an international conference commemorating the 200th anniversary of Hegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit (first published in 1807). On the occasion of this conference, the Portuguese philosophical community had the opportunity to come up against some of the most recent orientation in the analysis of this philosopher’s oeuvre, putting itself to the test as regards its analytical skills. This volume offers a picture of that encounter, as faithful as possible to what were, at the time, the papers offered by/expositions of the various authors.

Book Encyclopedia of Early Modern Philosophy and the Sciences

Download or read book Encyclopedia of Early Modern Philosophy and the Sciences written by Dana Jalobeanu and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-08-27 with total page 2267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Encyclopedia offers a fresh, integrated and creative perspective on the formation and foundations of philosophy and science in European modernity. Combining careful contextual reconstruction with arguments from traditional philosophy, the book examines methodological dimensions, breaks down traditional oppositions such as rationalism vs. empiricism, calls attention to gender issues, to ‘insiders and outsiders’, minor figures in philosophy, and underground movements, among many other topics. In addition, and in line with important recent transformations in the fields of history of science and early modern philosophy, the volume recognizes the specificity and significance of early modern science and discusses important developments including issues of historiography (such as historical epistemology), the interplay between the material culture and modes of knowledge, expert knowledge and craft knowledge. This book stands at the crossroads of different disciplines and combines their approaches – particularly the history of science, the history of philosophy, contemporary philosophy of science, and intellectual and cultural history. It brings together over 100 philosophers, historians of science, historians of mathematics, and medicine offering a comprehensive view of early modern philosophy and the sciences. It combines and discusses recent results from two very active fields: early modern philosophy and the history of (early modern) science.

Book Desire and Human Flourishing

Download or read book Desire and Human Flourishing written by Magdalena Bosch and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-23 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the concept of desire as a positive factor in human growth and flourishing. All human decision-making is preceded by some kind of desire, and we act upon desires by either rejecting or following them. It argues that our views on and expressions of desire in various facets of life and through time have differed according to how human beings are taught to desire. Therefore, the concept has tremendous potential to affect human beings positively and to enable personal growth. Though excellent research has been done on the concepts of flourishing, character education and positive psychology, no other work has linked the concept of desire to all of these topics. Featuring key references, explanations of central concepts, and significant practical applications of desire to various fields of human thought and action, the book will be of interest to students and researchers in the fields of positive psychology, positive education, moral philosophy, and virtue ethics.
