Book excerpt: Le réseau « Chromatiques whiteheadiennes » a pour objectif premier de fédérer les recherches sur les différents aspects, nuances et implications de la pensée du philosophe et algébriste britannique Alfred North Whitehead (1861-1947). C'est dans ce cadre qu'ont été créés en 2002 à l'Université Paris 1 Panthéon Sorbonne des séminaires de recherche sur la philosophie organique whiteheadienne. L' « Annuaire de la philosophie en procès » publie les principaux résultats de ces travaux et offre complémentairement des études critiques et des comptes rendus récents dans les domaines whiteheadiens et connexes. The « Chromatiques whiteheadiennes » network intends to bring together research on the different aspects, nuances and implications of Alfred North Whitehead's (1861-1947) thought. Since 2002, the network has fostered in Paris 1 Panthéon Sorbonne research seminars on his organic philosophy. The Chromatikon yearbook publishes the main results of this work and also offer critical studies and reviews in Whiteheadian and related fields. The Chromatikon yearbooks are complementary to the works published in ontos' « Chromatiques whiteheadiennes » and« Process Thought » series.
Download or read book Empire s Nature written by Amy R. W. Meyers and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2012-12-01 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Completed in 1747, Mark Catesby's Natural History of Carolina, Florida, and the Bahama Islands was the first major illustrated publication on the flora and fauna of Britain's American colonies. Together with his Hortus Britanno-Americanus (1763), which detailed plant species that might be transplanted successfully to British soil, Catesby's Natural History exerted an important, though often overlooked, influence on the development of art, natural history, and scientific observation in the eighteenth century. Inspired by a major traveling exhibition of Catesby's watercolor drawings from the Royal Library, Windsor Castle, this collection of interdisciplinary essays considers Catesby's endeavors as a naturalist-artist, scientific explorer, experimental horticulturist, ornamental gardener, and early environmental thinker in terms of the interests held by the various, overlapping communities in which he functioned--particularly as those interests related to the British colonial enterprise. The contributors are David R. Brigham, Joyce E. Chaplin, Mark Laird, Amy R. W. Meyers, Therese O'Malley, and Margaret Beck Pritchard.

Download or read book Signals and Images written by Madeleine Bastide and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientists challenging dominant paradigms are either ignored or attacked by the scientific mainstream. This book, however, contains a selection of scientific papers presented at the two last GIRI meetings (International Research Group on Very Low Dose and High Dilution Effects). The majority of these papers present results performed with succussed high dilutions (homeopathic dilutions), even beyond the Avogrado number. All presented models are classified, and their interpretation is possible either in the mechanistic paradigm or in an information paradigm. This new field of research introduces new scientific concepts which are supported by experimental results. Furthermore, this nascent science is totally concerned with living organisms and, as such, it becomes necessary to define `information' brought by non-molecular high dilutions. This book presents brain-storming work of this research group and is one of the starting points of a scientific evolution.
Download or read book Les sciences humaines dans le centre de l art written by CORDONNIER Sarah and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2012-09-24 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage propose de décrypter le rôle des sciences humaines dans l’art contemporain au fil de son développement et de son institutionnalisation en France. Cette approche communicationnelle s’intéresse aussi bien aux pratiques qu’aux discours, aux dispositifs (comme l’exposition) qu’aux représentations (en particulier des sciences). Comment observer les sciences humaines dans le champ artistique, alors que leur réception, leurs réappropriations, ne sont pas visibles de manière immédiate ? Comment rendre compte d’un usage collectif de ces savoirs et, donc, les situer dans des règles et normes partagées par les acteurs de l’art contemporain ? Comment repérer et analyser les manières différenciées d’y recourir dans ce cadre commun ? Par l’observation et l’examen détaillé des centres d’art et des expositions d’art contemporain, Les sciences humaines dans le centre d’art vise à éclairer la circulation sociale des savoirs et les manières de l’étudier.
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.

Download or read book Am Schnittpunkt von Philologie und Translationswissenschaft written by Hannelore Lee-Jahnke and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2010 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diese Festschrift ehrt Martin Forstner, Professor an der Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz und zeichnet einige der wesentlichen Initiativen eines grossen Gelehrten und Wegebereiters nach, dessen Forschung und Publikationen für die Translationswissenschaft als richtungweisend gelten. Seine Freunde und Kollegen der CIUTI widmen ihm diesen Band in Dankbarkeit für sein Wirken auf nationaler und internationaler Ebene. Die hier behandelten Themen spiegeln die vielfältigen Facetten der Translationswissenschaft wieder. So ist die akademische Ausbildung, in welcher Evaluierung eine Schlüsselrolle spielt, ebenso Gegenstand der Überlegungen wie die neuen Wege, welche diese Ausbildung einschlagen sollte, damit unsere Absolventen nicht nur heute, sondern auch in Zukunft den Anforderungen des Marktes entsprechen können. Auch den veränderten geopolitischen Konstellationen, welche althergebrachte Muster in Frage stellen und die Ausbilder zwingen, neue Richtungen in der Translationsdidaktik zu nehmen, wird Rechnung getragen. Das vorliegende Werk beinhaltet ferner die Modellisierung von Übersetzungstheorien, die Aspekte der Theaterübersetzung, die Rechtsterminologie für das Sprachenpaar arabisch-deutsch, die neuen Marktanforderungen, die interkulturelle Kompetenz, skizziert die Beziehung zwischen Philologie und Übersetzung, stellt Überlegungen zur Bolognareform an und unterstreicht, dass Bilingualismus nicht zwangsweise mit übersetzerischer Kompetenz gleichzusetzen ist. Dieses Buch enthält 8 Beiträge auf Deutsch, 6 auf Französisch, 6 auf Englisch und 2 auf Italienisch.

Download or read book Politics of Nature written by Bruno Latour and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-07-01 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A major work by one of the more innovative thinkers of our time, Politics of Nature does nothing less than establish the conceptual context for political ecology—transplanting the terms of ecology into more fertile philosophical soil than its proponents have thus far envisioned. Bruno Latour announces his project dramatically: “Political ecology has nothing whatsoever to do with nature, this jumble of Greek philosophy, French Cartesianism and American parks.” Nature, he asserts, far from being an obvious domain of reality, is a way of assembling political order without due process. Thus, his book proposes an end to the old dichotomy between nature and society—and the constitution, in its place, of a collective, a community incorporating humans and nonhumans and building on the experiences of the sciences as they are actually practiced. In a critique of the distinction between fact and value, Latour suggests a redescription of the type of political philosophy implicated in such a “commonsense” division—which here reveals itself as distinctly uncommonsensical and in fact fatal to democracy and to a healthy development of the sciences. Moving beyond the modernist institutions of “mononaturalism” and “multiculturalism,” Latour develops the idea of “multinaturalism,” a complex collectivity determined not by outside experts claiming absolute reason but by “diplomats” who are flexible and open to experimentation.
