Book excerpt: ¿En qué se parecen caminar, tejer, observar, narrar, cantar, dibujar y escribir? La repuesta es que, de uno u otro modo, todo lo anterior se lleva a cabo a través de líneas. Visto así, la Historia entera es una línea, compuesta por pequeñas líneas. En este libro Tim Ingold imagina un mundo en el que todos y todo se compone de líneas entrelazadas o in-terconectadas y sienta las bases de una nueva disciplina: la ar-queología antropológica de la línea. El argumento de Ingold nos lleva a través de la música de la antigua Grecia y del Japón contemporáneo, por laberintos de Siberia y vías ro-manas, por la caligrafía china y el alfabeto impreso, tejiendo un camino entre la antigüedad y el presente. Ingold revela cómo nuestra percepción de las líneas ha cambiado en el tiempo, con la modernidad antes de convertirse en recta, la línea es un conjunto de puntos, pero el mundo posmoderno la rompe y fragmenta para estudiarla mejor. Tim Ingold utiliza para su estudio muchas disciplinas, como la Arqueolo-gía, Estudios Clásicos, Historia del Arte, la Lingüística, la Psicología, la Musicología, la Filosofía y muchos otros. Este libro nos lleva por un viaje intelectual estimulante que va a cambiar la manera en que vemos el mundo y la forma en que vamos por el mismo.

Book Memory in the Ontopoiesis of Life

Download or read book Memory in the Ontopoiesis of Life written by Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-09-30 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An individual has the potentiality to develop himself/herself during each period of his/her life. This potential for development can be affected by many diff- ent factors. These factors are divided into two main areas as internal factors and external factors. The common assumption is that internal factors are more effective than external factors. This is the dilemma about learning which p- cess of lifelong learning is related to self-actualization. In this paper, discussion is limited to concept of lifelong learning and self actualization. LIFELONG LEARNING An individual can take proper support form many components such as family, education system, media and peers. However, they may not provide proper s- port for the individual. Thus, the individual needs more pedagogical support to solve problems of life, develop his/her skills and capabilities. The pedagogical support should be given by educational system. Teaching and learning in some areas such as math, science, drawing, social studies and so on were de ned as pedagogical support in the past. But, this approach is weakening in today. During teaching and learning processes teacher and learner should focus on the learning rather than the teaching. The concept of learning is likely to be argued in many dimensions. The c- cepts of teaching and learning tend to be rede ned based on the latest changes.

Download or read book Does the World Exist written by Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 934 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Does the World exist?" There would be no reason to resurrect this question of modernity from its historical oblivion were it not for the fact that recent evolution in science and technology, impregnating culture, makes us wonder about the nature of reality, of the world we are living in, and of our status as living beings within it. Thus great metaphysical subjacent queries are forcefully revived, calling for new investigations to proceed in the light of the innumerable novel insights of science. This collection presents a wealth of material toward an elaboration of a new metaphysical groundwork of the ontopoiesis/ phenomenology of life sought to effect such investigations. The classic postulates of the metaphysics of reality, those of necessity and certainty here find a new formulation. Away from sclerotized ontological and cognitive assumptions and congenial with the views of contemporary science, the understanding of reality, of our world of life, and of ourselves within it is to be sought in the existential/ontopoietic ciphering of life (Tymieniecka).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comprende un arco de tiempo bastante amplio, desde los albores de la filosofía hasta nuestros días. Muestra como solamente el hombre posee una capacidad de asombro que le caracteriza y responde a su naturaleza racional. Esto permite que sea capaz de interrogarse y dar respuesta del el entorno en que vive (el universo), y también sobre quién y cómo es él mismo. Es un ser que posee también conciencia de ser persona, de actuar con libertad y comprometerse, de señalarse fines propios individuales y comunitarios, así como de sujetarse o transgredir leyes de orden natural y de carácter civil y morales o éticas. Estos temas han inquietado a muchos hombres y dado respuestas muy variadas, algunas veces contrapuestas y otras veces complementarias, unas equivocadas y otras verdaderas... Con todo, aún queda mucho por investigar y decir.

Download or read book Paideia written by Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The education of humanity is the key to the next century's culture, its social and practical life. The main concerns of education are perennial, but the continuous flood of inventions, the technological innovations that re-shape life, calls for a radically new appraisal of the situation, such as only philosophy can provide. Answering the call of humanity for the measure, sense of proportion and direction that could re-orient present and future education, the phenomenology of life - integral and scientific, in a dialogue with the arts, the sciences, and the humanities - proposes an ontopoietic model of life's unfolding as the universal paradigm for this re-orientation. Taking the Human Creative Condition as its Archimedean point, it offers a unique context for a fresh investigation of the concerns of education, both perennial and immediate.

Por otra parte, este trabajo desea dar a conocer la fauna más espectacular existente en nuestro territorio, en especial los de la Formación Bahía Inglesa, como: el ave más grande del mundo, con ocho metros de ala a ala, Pelagornis chilensis; un tiburón del tamaño de un vagón de tren, Carcharocles megalodon; una ballena asesina, con dientes de más de cuarenta centímetros de largo, Leviathan melvillei; entre otros mamíferos marinos y aves, realizando una revisión de la fauna fósil de los tiburones en Chile. Daremos un vistazo a un extraño grupo de mamíferos costeros de hábitos acuáticos dentro del grupo de los perezosos, los Thalassocnus; a un singular delfín, Odobenocetops, dotado de largos «colmillos»; y a un sirenio, todos conviviendo en un ecosistema único. Este libro, sin duda, será una guía para los estudiantes y futuros paleontólogos de nuestro país.

Book Transcendentalism Overturned

Download or read book Transcendentalism Overturned written by Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-04-02 with total page 698 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection offers a critical assessment of transcendentalism, the understanding of consciousness, absolutized as a system of a priori laws of the mind, that was advanced by Kant and Husserl. As these studies show, transcendentalism critically informed 20th Century phenomenological investigation into such issues as temporality, historicity, imagination, objectivity and subjectivity, freedom, ethical judgment, work, praxis. Advances in science have now provoked a questioning of the absolute prerogatives of consciousness. Transcendentalism is challenged by empirical reductionism. And recognition of the role the celestial sphere plays in life on planet earth suggests that a radical shift of philosophy's center of gravity be made away from absolute consciousness and toward the transcendental forces at play in the architectonics of the cosmos.
