Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quant à l'avenir de la psychologie scientifique, et des autres sciences touchant de près ou de loin aux problèmes de l'esprit, on ne saurait s'inquiéter à son sujet car, non seulement leur développement est irréversible, mais encore il est, comme en toutes les sciences, d'une irréversibilité d'un type particulier : ainsi qu'aime à le dire R. Oppenheimer, celle-ci repose sur la conscience des erreurs qu'on ne fera plus car, en science, il n'est pas possible de se tromper deux fois de la même façon. Tant l'ouverture indéfinie de ces sciences jeunes sur de nouveaux problèmes, que cette capacité d'autocorrection irréversible, sont donc les gages assurés de leur vitalité.

Book excerpt: Sélection Les 100 livres de l'année 2019 du magazine Lire Comment se comporter dans une civilisation qui menace de s'effondrer ? En lisant les Romains dont la philosophie s'appuie sur des exemples à suivre et non sur des théories fumeuses. Sagesse est un genre de péplum philosophique dans lequel on assiste à la mort de Pline l'Ancien et à des combats de gladiatrices, à des suicides grandioses et à des banquets de philosophes ridicules, à des amitiés sublimes et à des assassinats qui changent le cours de l'histoire. On y croise des personnages hauts en couleur : Mucius Scaevola et son charbon ardent, Regulus et ses paupières cousues, Cincinnatus et sa charrue, Lucrèce et son poignard. Mais aussi Sénèque et Cicéron, Épictète et Marc Aurèle. Ce livre répond à des questions très concrètes : quel usage faire de son temps ? Comment être ferme dans la douleur ? Est-il possible de bien vieillir ? De quelle façon apprivoiser la mort ? Doit-on faire des enfants ? Qu'est-ce que tenir parole ? Qu'est-ce qu'aimer d'amour ou d'amitié ? Peut-on posséder sans être possédé ? Faut-il s'occuper de politique ? Que nous apprend la nature ? À quoi ressemble une morale de l'honneur ? Dans l'attente de la catastrophe, on peut toujours vivre en Romain : c'est-à-dire droit et debout. Michel Onfray a publié plus d'une centaine de livres et est traduit dans 25 pays. Il est le fondateur en 2002 de l'Université populaire de Caen et a lancé en 2016 sa webtv : michelonfray.com Sagesse est le troisième volet de la Brève encyclopédie du monde, après Cosmos et Décadence.

Download or read book Investigating Phenomenal Consciousness written by Max Velmans and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2000-11-29 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can one investigate phenomenal consciousness? As in other areas of science, the investigation of consciousness aims for a more precise knowledge of its phenomena, and the discovery of general truths about their nature. This requires the development of appropriate first-person, second-person and third-person methods. This book introduces some of the creative ways in which these methods can be applied to different purposes, e.g. to understanding the relation of consciousness to brain, to examining or changing consciousness as such, and to understanding the way consciousness is influenced by social, clinical and therapeutic contexts. To clarify the strengths and weaknesses of different methods and to demonstrate the interplay of methodology and epistemology, the book also suggests a number of “maps” of the consciousness studies terrain that place different approaches to the study of consciousness into a broader, interdisciplinary context. (Series A).
Download or read book L amour de la sagesse written by Bruno Giuliani and published by Editions du Relié. This book was released on 2000 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce livre propose une initiation simple, claire et complète à la philosophie. Comme chacun sait, la philosophie est une activité intellectuelle : c'est une réflexion sur le monde qui a pour but la vérité. Mais on oublie souvent un élan vital vers le bien, une recherche de sagesse. La philosophie n'a pas pour essence le savoir, mais l'amour. Sa finalité n'est pas la science, mais le bonheur. Son moteur n'est pas la raison, mais le désir. Son horizon n'est pas la vérité, mais le sens. Si elle est bien recherche du vrai savoir par la raison, la philosophie ne prend toute sa valeur que si elle exprime notre amour de la vie, en réalisant notre désir le plus profond : celui d'accomplir pleinement notre humanité, pour vivre dans la joie sereine et habiter ce monde dans la plénitude du sens, corps et âme. Que la philosophie a pour essence l'amour, c'est ce qu'il faut bien comprendre d'abord.

Download or read book Jean Piaget and Neuch tel written by Anne-Nelly Perret-Clermont and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2007-12-08 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jean Piaget is widely acknowledged as one of the most important scholars of the twentieth century. His passionate philosophical search for an understanding of the nature of knowledge led him to make major contributions to the study of child development and epistemology. But how did his early life in Neuchâtel inspire him to embark on this search? Taking a socio-historical and cultural perspective, this book outlines the development of Piaget's understanding of major issues regarding mind, faith, science, logic, peace, and social rights in a time of anxiety. and world wars The international and multidisciplinary contributors investigate Piaget the adolescent as he begins his quest for autonomy of reason and sets out to create his own explanatory system for cognitive growth. The latter part of the book goes on to consider the early reception of Piaget's work in different cultural contexts and his impact on issues of psychology and educational reform. Piaget's theoretical system can be seen as an expression of the values he developed during his childhood and adolescence as he searched for the conditions of reciprocal relationships and rational dialogues. Jean Piaget and Neuchâtel demonstrates that in today's climate, the questions Piaget addressed remain very relevant and invite new enquiries from different standpoints. This book will therefore be of interest to psychologists, educators, and philosophers. This book is published with the support of Pro Helvetia, Swiss Arts Council.
Download or read book On Becoming Aware written by Natalie Depraz and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2003 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book searches for the sources and means for a disciplined practical approach to exploring human experience. The spirit of this book is "pragmatic" and relies on a Husserlian phenomenology primarily understood as a "method" of exploring our experience. The authors do not aim at a neo-Kantian "a priori" new theory of experience but instead they describe a concrete activity: how we examine what we live through, how we "become aware" of our own mental life. The range of experiences of which we can become aware is vast: all the normal dimensions of human life (perception, motion, memory, imagination, speech, everyday social interactions), cognitive events that can be precisely defined as tasks in laboratory experiments (e.g., a protocol for visual attention), but also manifestations of mental life more fraught with meaning (dreaming, intense emotions, social tensions, altered states of consciousness). The central assertion in this work is that this immanent ability is habitually ignored or at best practiced unsystematically, that is to say, blindly. Exploring human experience amounts to developing and cultivating this basic ability through specific training. Only a hands-on, non-dogmatic approach can lead to progress, and that is what animates this book. (Series B)
Download or read book The View from Within written by Jonathan Shear and published by Imprint Academic. This book was released on 1999 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last decade there has been a resurgence of interest in the scientific study of consciousness -- an area that has been largely ignored since the time of William James. This renaissance has primarily been stimulated by developments in PET, fMRI and other brain-scanning technology that enable scientists to pinpoint the neural correlates of conscious experience with ever-increasing accuracy. However, the study of conscious experience itself has not kept pace with these advances in third-person methodologies. If anything, the standard approaches to examining the 'view from within' involve little more than cataloging its readily accessible components. Thus the study of lived subjective experience is still at the level of Aristotelian science. This has led many to deny that there could possibly be such a thing as a truly scientific study of conscious experience, or at least to ask: can one be objective about the subjective? Drawing on a wide range of approaches -- from phenomenology to meditation -- THE VIEW FROM WITHIN examines the possibility of a disciplined approach to the study of subjective states. The focus is on the practical issues involved.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Knowledge of Life Today presents the thoughts of Jean Gayon, a major philosopher of science in France who is recognized across the Atlantic, especially for his work in philosophy and the history of life sciences. The book is structured around Gayon's personal answers to questions put forward by Victor Petit. This approach combines scientific rigor and risk-taking in answers that go back to the fundamentals of the subject. As well as the relationship between philosophy and the history of science, Gayon discusses the main questions of the history and philosophy of biology that marked his intellectual journey: Darwin, evolutionary biology, genetics and molecular biology, human evolution, and various aspects of the relationship between biology and society in contemporary times (racism, eugenics, biotechnology, biomedicine, etc.).

Download or read book Emerging Visions of the Aesthetic Process written by Gerald C. Cupchik and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1992-09-25 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emerging Visions of the Aesthetic Process explores the processes underlying aesthetics and play from the perspectives of psychologists, philosophers, and semiologists. It reveals the different ways in which scholars think about the following questions: (1) What is the origin of the creative process? (2) How do biological, social, and cognitive processes shape the activities of artists and the responses of viewers? (3) How does literary activity draw on our experiences of everyday life and how is it tied to other kinds of media? (4) How does play affect the process of growth from childhood to adulthood? The contributors consider artistic, literary, and play activity from its most biological roots through individual cognitive and emotional processing to its expression at the social level. Emerging Visions of the Aesthetic Process offers a stimulating basis for the discussion of aesthetic processes and will serve as an integrative, comprehensive treatise on the topic for researchers and students.

This book was released on 2014-03-25T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nietzsche demandait : pourquoi avons-nous voulu le vrai plutôt que le non-vrai (ou l’incertitude ou l’ignorance) ? La question se voudrait radicale, et même la plus radicale, mais elle est encore conçue du dedans de la tradition européenne, bien que la prenant à revers : elle ose toucher à la valeur de la vérité, mais sans sortir de sa référence ; elle ne remet pas en question le monopole que la vérité a fait subir à la pensée. Du point de vue de la sagesse, la question deviendrait : comment a-t-on pu – et fallait-il ? – faire une « fixation » sur la vérité ? Et si, au lieu que ce soit la sagesse qui n’aurait pas accédé à la philosophie, c’était la philosophie qui, en Grèce, en se braquant sur le vrai, avait dérapé hors de la sagesse ?Car si le sage est « sans idée », comme il est dit de Confucius, c’est que toute idée avancée est déjà un parti pris sur la réalité. Aussi, en partant sur les traces estompées de la sagesse, souhaité-je revenir sur ce qui a pu échapper à la philosophie ; comme redonner consistance à son autre enfoui, expliciter sa cohérence.Autrement dit, que faisons-nous aujourd’hui de la sagesse ?Et que peut être une logique de la sagesse – une « logique » sans logos ?F.
