In this article we inquire which are the theoretical requirements for creating a moral manager, which are the factors that influence the ethical attitude of business men and why are these elements important in the business world. The managers, the main pawns in building a moral environment within companies, should have and use an intrinsic moral judgment, as it is found in the third level of Kohlberg’s post conventional morality and also they should thoroughly analyze before taking any decision they feel is morally just. One of the most important moral principle that managers should use is: “what you do not like, do not do to the other” or the so called “golden rule”. It can be applied irrespective of the culture of the company that the manager administers, because is universal. At the same time, reciprocity is a condition found in all societies, and enforcing such a principle could generate a maximum of returns for all people engaged. The ethic ideal can be found in some fundamental moral principles and, in this way, it is more closer to the functioning of ethics in the manager’s and community’s life. Besides principles, managers can use other ways of adopting moral decisions. Moral rules, moral norms and values can be useful in this sense, as a benchmark in taking decisions.

The author of the present article, occasioned by the 80th birthday of the pastor and writer Eginald Schlattner, endeavours to find permanent life subjects by tracing back the defining childhood and youth memories of Eginald Schlattner based on his early work “Odem”, written and printed in 1957, but published for the first time in 2012. The depiction of the life and early experiences of a youth in the story “Odem” is being interpreted as an unsuccessful attempt to find “redemption” from suffering, lovesickness and the obsessions of death. In contrast with the “anti-redemption story” of the young writer Schlattner, and by referring to a writing of Martin Luther and the novel “Demian’ by Hermann Hesse, the author of the present considerations, draws the “redemption story” of the later successful author of the three novels “ Der geköpfte Hahn” (“The decapitated rooster”), “Rote Handschuhe” (“Red gloves”) and “Das Klavier im Nebel” (The piano in the mist”). Up to this day Eginald Schlattner is living and working as a pastor and writer in Roșia/ Rothberg near Hermannstadt/Sibiu, acting also as a prison minister.

Supreme Being is in Heaven. Heaven reveals directly the transcendence, strength and sacredness. For primitive men the original power of Supreme Beings lies in the fact that they had created the world, life and man. For the religious man the Divine Being is conceived in two coexisting aspects: angry and gentle, forgiving and relentless, terrifying and restful. Any goddess aspires to be a Mother Goddess, spanning all her attributes and functions. For archaic peoples a several number of Supreme Beings were androgynes; androgynia represents the perfection of unconditional primordial status.

The Romanian traditional culture has successive layers and makes up what Lucian Blaga called a vernacular philosophical constant, or a form of proto-philosophy. This cultural model, actually the first Romanian view upon the world, is a synthesis of logos and mythos, but rather a form of Romanian ethos . Seen in this context, the process of humanization of the ancient world, based on the cultural model of temporality, is the foundation of the cyclic evolution of the world, and finds its full structure in the traditional fairy tale. Keywords: traditional culture, recent culture, proto-philosophy, vernacular humanism, temporality, myth, legend, fairy tale.

The study captures the effort made by the academician Theodore Dima to reveal the gnoseological demarche of Blaga, the hermeneutical- dialectical attitude instituted and professed by Noica and P. Botezatu. The study also captures other relevant aspects of the Romanian philosophy. In this study we tried to disclose some of the ideatic arborescent relief of a particularly complex book through the problems load, the elegance of writing, through the effort made to reveal the perennial valences of the Romanian philosophical spirituality.

Mioriţa is one of the fundamental myths of the Romanian people - the myth of pastoral existence - in relation to literary and ethnogenetic aspects, polyvalent in mythical function, ritualistic and symbolic; furthermore, it rises to a mito-dogmatic consciousness able to establish and structure an ethos. Carol-rite-myth, Mioriţa is a dogmamyth par excellence - which contains paradigmatic valences under an ancient antropocosmologic ante-Romanian aspect - formulated in terms of an archaic-liturgical poem. The poem - according to actual reminiscences - descended from a rite of initiation or rite of passage (transition) of the soul interpreted as a carol, and in secular form as a pastoral ballad. Mioriţa - followed closely by Legends of God’s Mother - is the quintessential of Romanian Cosmic Christianity, but it is also function of the ciclico-anamnesis embodiment of the sacred-hypostatic which arises into mioritic topofany.

Constructivism and pragmatism are the most popular responses to postmodernism as we are approaching the limits of our reflective capacities. Consequently, in science practice, not theory is now the primary concern. The Romanian philosopher Lucian Blaga has anticipated this development in his epistemological writings, where he combines pragmatism with constructivism. However, I shall argue that he misses some important points by delimiting himself from phenomenology. I shall argue, that phenomenology has an important contribution to make to our modern “Zeitgeist” and can be a supplement to the pragmatic and constructivist mind.

The presentation and representation of the nude human body was one of the central interests in the culture of ancient Greece. The whole miracle of the ancient Greek revolves around the hero or the athlete, with insistence on the physical representation of his body, stripped of all its clothes and preconceptions. In gymnasiums, as well as in the myths of Olympus, the nude was held as a supreme ethical and aesthetical criterion. This gymnosophic way of life redefined normality in the ancient Greek society and was the basis of an important manner of understanding identity as one deriving from corporeality.

Placed under the sign of Nemoian import of a second language effective in taming interlocking modules, the present intervention aims to connect (the) multiphase dimensions of open routes such as simulacra - sign - animation - graphic . These levels acquire the status of permanent schemes applicable to a feline register and therefore this intervention aims to open a pupil slit toward the view simulacra / sign (Zoltán Sebôk, Jean Baudrillard’s Cats – Roman Jakobson, Claude Lévi Strauss, «Les Chats» de Charles Baudelaire), and the relation animation / graphic which are slightly ideologizing (Le chat du rabbin, Antoine Delesvaux , Joann Sfar , 2011 - Maus. A Surviver’ s Tale, Art Spiegelman, 2012). Actually applying a targeted approach of dual readings – the first, vertical and triggering such a motion in the juxtaposition of details, reporting the significance of the semantics reference and a second, consisting in a horizontal extraction of the signifier by reporting elements to one another within the semiotic system of synthetic and retrospective order.
