Download or read book Los fil sofos presocr ticos II written by Varios autores and published by RBA Libros. This book was released on 2016-08-05 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este segundo volumen dedicado a los pensadores presocráticos incluye los fragmentos conservados de dos eleatas, Zenón de Elea y Meliso de Samos, y dos pluralistas,, Empédocles de Agrigegento y Anáxagoras de Clazómenas, así como las referencias que a ellos hicieron la filosofía y la literatura griegas posteriores. En este segundo volumen se prosigue con la recopilación de fragmentos conservados de pensadores presocráticos y de referencias a ellos en la literatura y la filosofía posteriores. Zenón de Elea (h. 490 a.C.) compartió en buena medida las ideas de Parménides (de quien sin embargo no es mero discípulo) sobre el carácter único, imperecedero e inmutable del ser y la irrealidad del cambiante mundo fenoménico. Estos conceptos fundamentales están en la base de sus célebres aporías, paradojas y procedimientos argumentativos que socavan las opiniones y concepciones falsas acerca de la pluralidad y el movimiento, por los que Aristóteles llamó a Zenón inventor de la dialéctica. Zenón, que aparece como personaje en el diálogo platónico Parménides, ha sido relacionado con el movimiento sofístico ateniense. Meliso de Samos recibió duras críticas de Aristóteles en la Metafísica y en las Refutaciones sofísticas, y esta opinión adversa hacia sus doctrinas y su importancia histórica ha influido en la valoración de los estudiosos e historiadores posteriores. Pero tal desprecio de los ilustrados atenienses se debió en parte a que Meliso encabezó la más decidida rebelión contra la liga imperial de Atenas y se enfrentó a Pericles. Los fragmentos aquí reunidos rescatan a Meliso como riguroso sistematizador del pensamiento eleático, en la línea de Parménides y Zenón. Tal síntesis no es obra de un simple exégeta, sino que aporta argumentaciones originales y una coherencia que adquirió en la Antigüedad el carácter de formulación global, canónica y paradigmática.

Download or read book Los fil sofos presocr ticos written by GEOFFREY S. KIRK and published by Gredos Editorial S.A.. This book was released on 2008-05-01 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La primera edición de este libro, hace medio siglo, fue saludada por los reseñadores, desde foros muy dispares, como «la mejor historia de la filosofía griega», como «una enorme contribución académica» o como «una obra de consulta indispensable para el estudiante», de manera que el Kirk-Raven se consolidó rápidamente como la obra de referencia en la materia, la lectura y comentario de los fragmentos y textos más importantes de los presocráticos. El libro traza de forma admirable la revolución intelectual iniciada por Tales en el siglo VI a. C. hasta su culminación en la metafísica de Parménides y las complejas teorías físicas de Anaxágoras y los atomistas en el siglo V a. C. La segunda edición se vio mejorada con la reescritura, a cargo de Malcolm Schofield, de los capítulos dedicados a los eleáticos y pitagóricos, a Empédocles y a los atomistas, a la luz de las nuevas investigaciones sobre estos pensadores. La base de esta obra sigue siendo el corpus de unos seiscientos textos en griego y su ajustada traducción castellana, que ofrece el fundamento para un estudio crítico de los principales pensadores individuales de esa época.

Download or read book The Athenian Constitution written by Aristotle and published by Penguin. This book was released on 1984-10-02 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Probably written by a student of Aristotle, The Athenian Constitution is both a history and an analysis of Athens' political machinery between the seventh and fourth centuries BC, which stands as a model of democracy at a time when city-states lived under differing kinds of government. The writer recounts the major reforms of Solon, the rule of the tyrant Pisistratus and his sons, the emergence of the democracy in which power was shared by all free male citizens, and the leadership of Pericles and the demagogues who followed him. He goes on to examine the city's administration in his own time - the council, the officials and the judicial system. For its information on Athens' development and how the democracy worked, The Athenian Constitution is an invaluable source of knowledge about the Athenian city-state.

This book was released on 1994-05-26 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Unity of Reason is the first major study of Kant's account of reason. It argues that Kant's wide-ranging interests and goals can only be understood by redirecting attention from epistemological questions of his work to those concerning the nature of reason. Rather than accepting a notion of reason given by his predecessors, a fundamental aim of Kant's philosophy is to reconceive the nature of reason. This enables us to understand Kant's insistence on the unity of theoretical and practical reason as well as his claim that his metaphysics was driven by practical and political ends. Neiman begins by discussing the historical roots of Kant's conception of reason, and by showing Kant's solution to problems which earlier conceptions left unresolved. Kant's notion of reason itself is examined through a discussion of all the activities Kant attributes to reason. In separate chapters discussing the role of reason in science, morality, religion, and philosophy, Neiman explores Kant's distinctions between reason and knowledge, and his difficult account of the regulative principles of reason. Through examination of these principles in Kant's major and minor writings, The Unity of Reason provides a fundamentally new perspective on Kant's entire work.

Download or read book Reclaiming the History of Ethics written by Andrews Reath and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1997-05-13 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in this volume offer an approach to the history of moral and political philosophy that takes its inspiration from John Rawls. The distinctive feature of this approach is to address substantive normative questions in moral and political philosophy through an analysis of the texts and theories of major figures in the history of the subject: Aristotle, Hobbes, Hume, Rousseau, Kant, and Marx. By reconstructing the core of these theories in a way that is informed by contemporary theoretical concerns, the contributors show how the history of the subject is a resource for understanding present and perennial problems in moral and political philosophy.

Download or read book Music in Renaissance Magic written by Gary Tomlinson and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Magic enjoyed a vigorous revival in sixteenth-century Europe, attaining a prestige lost for over a millennium and becoming, for some, a kind of universal philosophy. Renaissance music also suggested a form of universal knowledge through renewed interest in two ancient themes: the Pythagorean and Platonic "harmony of the celestial spheres" and the legendary effects of the music of bards like Orpheus, Arion, and David. In this climate, Renaissance philosophers drew many new and provocative connections between music and the occult sciences. In Music in Renaissance Magic, Gary Tomlinson describes some of these connections and offers a fresh view of the development of early modern thought in Italy. Raising issues essential to postmodern historiography—issues of cultural distance and our relationship to the others who inhabit our constructions of the past —Tomlinson provides a rich store of ideas for students of early modern culture, for musicologists, and for historians of philosophy, science, and religion. "A scholarly step toward a goal that many composers have aimed for: to rescue the idea of New Age Music—that music can promote spiritual well-being—from the New Ageists who have reduced it to a level of sonic wallpaper."—Kyle Gann, Village Voice "An exemplary piece of musical and intellectual history, of interest to all students of the Renaissance as well as musicologists. . . . The author deserves congratulations for introducing this new approach to the study of Renaissance music."—Peter Burke, NOTES "Gary Tomlinson's Music in Renaissance Magic: Toward a Historiography of Others examines the 'otherness' of magical cosmology. . . . [A] passionate, eloquently melancholy, and important book."—Anne Lake Prescott, Studies in English Literature
