“Teekond galaktika hüperdimensionaalse postmetafoorse metasüsteemi keskmesse” ehk teekond Isaac Asimovist Juri Lotmani ja leppimiseni

Author(s): Oliver Valk / Language(s): Estonian Issue: 18/2021

Aasta oli 2019, kui endagi imestuseks leidsin ennast Arvo Pärdi sünnikohast, Laulasmaalt, mängimas lavastuses, mis põhines Isaac Asimovi ulmeromaanil “Asum”. Lavastus oli, nagu ka pealkiri juba viitab, teekond galaktika hüperdimensionaalse postmetafoorse metasüsteemi keskmesse või nagu ma tollal seda mõtestasin – teekond tundmatusse, mõistmatusse. Praegu istun ma Tartu Ülikoolis, loen Juri Lotmani tekste ning olen ette võtnud järjekordse rännaku, järjekordse ratsaretke tundmatusse, mõistetamatuseni.

„Odlatujmy razem w wiry niebieskie”: miłość małżeńska w ujęciu Cypriana Norwida

Author(s): Dariusz Kulecki / Language(s): Polish Issue: 22/2021

The submitted article brings closer the theme of marital love as seen by Cyprian Norwid (1821 – 1883), which occupied a significant part of the author’s poetic horizon. He greatly appreciated the feeling between a man and a woman, seeing in it beauty and a divine spark. At the same time, he pointed out the rather common frivolous treatment of love, the immaturity of individuals and the materialistic approach to relationships, which seriously hinder, andsometimes even prevent, the formation of a mature marriage. Only the rejection of all conventions connected with this human covenant and solid preparation to enter a new stage oflife, is a chance to build a bond that will not stand the test of time and circumstances. Norwid linked marital love closely to the sacrament. In his conviction, God Himself enters betweenthe spouses and becomes the third person in this love dialogue of life. The sacrament also sets the husband and wife a goal to aim at. The writer completely disapproved of the practice of divorce, although he was aware of the difficulties connected with the common life of spouses. He believed that every crisis can be overcome and contribute to building a full marital happiness. Norwid’s particularly valuable – because pioneering – observations concern the mutual sanctification of the spouses and their building of a communion of persons.

„Rzeczy pospolite”: stare i nowe pojęcia powszechnika

Author(s): Paweł Rojek / Language(s): Polish Issue: 3/2022

Analytic philosophers usually believe that the problem of universals they discuss is the same problem that was discussed in antiquity and the Middle Ages. However, historians of philosophy point out that the old dispute on universals involved many different issues and did not focus on the currently debated problem of common properties. In my book Tropy i uniwersalia [Tropes and Universals], I assumed that the concept of universals had more or less the same meaning and I interpreted St. Thomas Aquinas’ position as a kind of contemporary realism. My interpretation raised interesting polemics by historians of philosophy, Tomasz Tiuryn and Michał Głowala. In this paper I attempt to examine the similarities and differences between contemporary and medieval understandings of universals and to answer some of their objections. It seems that there were at least three different notions of universals in the Middle Ages. First, they were understood as common beings, strictly identical in many realizations. This concept of universals is perhaps due to the patristic discussions of the Trinity in the fourth century. Second, universals were defined as entities predicated of the many, that is, as general concepts existing in the intellect. Third, and finally, they were thought, especially in late scholasticism, as entities divided into their realizations. Only the first concept agrees with the contemporary understanding of universals. It follows that the medieval and contemporary dispute over universals partially overlap. Finally, I also try to show that the interpretations of Aquinas’s position proposed by Tomasz Tiuryn and Michał Głowala lead in fact to a peculiar position that combines trope theory and Quine’s ostrich nominalism.

Четенето в епохата на гледането

Author(s): Dmitriy Varzonovtzev / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 4-5/2004

It is paradoxical, but just the main modern technologies limit the power of reading and put together with it an old prehistroic „vlewing“. Now the classical in good order tale has a neighbors and competitiors – the myth and the superstition. From the „vulgar“ sociological point of view it is impossible to force an universal viewpoint. It is out of the question that In the lnternet is possible to forced a sole unique program.

Четенето на Ницше като предизвикателство пред литературната интерпретация

Author(s): Galina Ivanova / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 2/2014

The article discusses the problem of interpretation as the main thematic point in the texts of Nietzsche, which can be successfully read from both philosophical and literary perspectives.

Четири- или петелементалното присъствие в микро- и макроизмеренията на човешкото съществуване

Author(s): Valeri Ivanov / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 1/2019

The ratio of simple and elementary constructive qualities creates complex interrelationships and dependencies that make our world independent of whether we look at its micro- or macro-specificity. Traditional Chinese „five elements“ have always sought their comparison with the „four elements“, building the traditional pattern of existence in Western culture and philosophy. Does the explanation of the world and its existence can lead to a different reality, transformed into the creative reproduction of our inner or outer world ?! How can we „translate“ the traditional culture of the perceptions that make up this world to find their adequate and faithful expression in our contemporary relationships of global ties and values ?! These are questions of the East-West meeting today or tomorrow.

ЧИСЛО В «ФИЛЕБЕ» ПЛАТОНА

Author(s): Andrey Shetnikov / Language(s): Russian Issue: 2/2009

The paper concerns the concept of number (arithmos), important for dialectical method of later Plato. It becomes clear that the arithmos in Plato’s dialectics should be understood as a concrete operation, a sort of tekhne, such as counting, enumeration, compilation of a comprehensive and systematic list, etc., rather then the theoretical number of abstract arithmetic. The author analyses a series of grammatical, musical and rhetorical examples, supplied by Plato in the Philebus and other dialogues, and traces the usage of arithmos and similar words in the earlier tradition, particularly, in Homer, Hesiod, the classical tragedy, and Herodotus.

Читајући Павла са Агамбеном: теолошко читање философског коментара Посланице Римљанима

Author(s): Predrag Dragutinović / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 3/2014

In his book The Time That Remains: A Commentary on the Letter to the Romans Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben offers an original approach to the theology of the Apostle Paul, which he creatively connects to the modern political theory. Main topics which Agamben deals with on the basis of Paul’s writings are „time“ and „Law”. Structure, content, methods and key insights of the stated book are presented in the text that follows. The main part of the paper is devoted to one aspect of Agamben’s approach to the epistles of the Apostle Paul as sources. There is a tendency to extend the texts that are attributed to the Apostle Paul (Deutero- Pauline texts) and on the other hand a reduction of the sources (eg. the Epistle to the Philippians) which he handles. It will be shown that the choice of texts affects the key points that the author presents (the Messianic time and the suspension of the Law). In this regard, the operating mechanism of Paul’s thought which is unsystematic, but is rather situational and conditioned by the specific needs of the communities to which he writes is considered.

The paper makes a comparative analysis of the interpretations that the famous Bulgarian writer Emilian Stanev gave of man and his relationship to God in the novel Anti-Christ and corresponding interpretations in some of the major works of Immanuel Kant. The comparison reveals both differences and similarities in their respective views regarding the essence of man in the perspective of his freedom and independence of God.

Човек и практика

Author(s): Hristo Hristov / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 2/2016

The strategic idea behind philosophizing is the modeling of the being from the stand point of the possible synthesis between the finite dimensions of the existing world. The most abstract metaphysical concepts – ideal and material, absolute and relative, mundane and divine, singular and general etc. – find their functional unity by the means of the practical mediation of the opposition – pre-human, human, post-human. In this respect philosophy is the theory of practice and a kind of “spiritual practice“.

ЧОВЕК КРИЗЕ У СВЕТУ THE MAN OF CRISIS IN КОРИСНИКА И ОНИХ КОЈИ THE WORLD OF USERS AND „ГОВОРЕ КАО ОРУЂАˮ

Author(s): Nataša Milović / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 183/2022

In this study, the authors problematize human position in today’s world. They try to discern contours of ideological matrices that support human conforming to global structures that attains character of total process. The specificity of this situation is recognized as a cause to identify framework of that process, highlighting mechanisms through which global superstructure indirectly gives itself attributes of “measure of all things”. The authors will single out the premises that infiltrate into human (self)understanding as presupposed ground for activity inside world and make an incentive to question historical position of man from newly established horizon

The text offers a review of Prof. Miglena Nikolchina's monumental study "God with Machine: Subtracting the Human", dedicated to fundamental theoretical conceptualizations around anthropological issues. The review dwells in particular on the central conceptual paradox outlined in Prof. Nikolchina's book, namely the double determination of man as "a being who wants to be human" and “being who does not want to be human”
