РОЛЬ КНИГИ И ЧТЕНИЯ В СТАНОВЛЕНИИ ЛИЧНОСТИ ПОДРОСТКА В РУССКОЙ ЛИТЕРАТУРЕ XVIII – ХХI ВВ. (М.Н. МУРАВЬЕВ, С.Т. АКСАКОВ, В.П. КРАПИВИН, Ф.А. КАМАЛОВ, Б.Г. ВАЙНЕР)

Author(s): Alfiya Foatovna Galimullina / Language(s): Russian Issue: 1/2016

The paper considers the problem of personality development of young people in the Russian literature of the 18th–21st centuries. The continuity of the traditions established in the Russian literature of the 18th–19th centuries is observed based on the autobiographical prose of M.N. Murav’ev (“An Inhabitant of the Suburbs”), S.T. Aksakov (“The Childhood Years of Bagrov Grandson”, “The Family Chronicles”), V.P. Krapivin (“The Sixth Bastion”), F.A. Kamalov (“Hello, Artem!”), and B.G Weiner (“A Lapwing along the Road”). These authors refer in their works to the acute problems of childhood and adolescence: moral and spiritual development of the young person, confrontation between the good and evil among children and in their souls, questions concerning protection of the world of children from adults, and relationships between adults and children. The conclusion is made that modern literary works addressed to children form a sustained interest in reading by motivating to it in enjoyable, playful, and seriocomic manner. They proclaim the positive role of books in the development of moral qualities of children and adolescents.

Narrating Disability, Trauma and Pain:
The Doing and Undoing of the Self in Language

Narrating Disability, Trauma and Pain: The Doing and Undoing of the Self in Language

Author(s): Kurt Borg / Language(s): English Issue: 01/2018

This article analyses themes from Christina Crosby’s disability memoir A Body, Undone: Living On after Great Pain through the philosophical works of Judith Butler. Both Crosby and Butler propose complementary ideas on corporeal vulnerability, the precariousness of life, relationality and interdependence. Crosby’s memoir provides a critique of dominant disability discourses that affect the social formation and reception of disability narratives, such as narratives that unilaterally characterize disabled subjects as strong, resilient and autonomous while bracketing the traumatic dimension of disability out of the narrative. Crosby’s book is discussed as a rich disability memoir that, while it firmly presents an account of living on, accounts for debilitating physical pain, the traumatic aspect of disability and the intense grief for lost bodily functions, abilities and life possibilities. Reflecting also on the socio-political character of disability narratives, the article considers how and why certain narratives can function critically and motivate a critical analysis of contemporary representations of disabled people. Approaching philosophically Crosby’s memoir through Butler’s work enables a wide-ranging consideration of topics found in the memoir such as the therapeutic nature of writing, narrative identity and its difficulties, the relations between disability studies and trauma theory, the political import of the personal and the ethico-political significance of interdependence.

Ролята на баснята за възпитаване на емоционални социални компетенции

Author(s): Slawomir Krzyszka / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 3/2024

In the article I bring the issue of using fairy tales in creating emotional social skills among children. It occupies a special place in bibliotherapy on the grounds of unique effect. The fairy tales strengthen, in fantastic form, the regional views on human intercourse and show ideals of good and justice and criteria of assessing human actions. Thanks to fairy tales, they stimulate moral development and enable to adapt socially accepted patterns of behaviour. In fairy tales the life matters are shown. They try to answer the question what the world is, which rules it governs and how to cope with fears and risks.

The „Christian Natural Philosophy” of Otto Casmann (1562–1607): A Case Study of Early Modern Mosaic Physics

The „Christian Natural Philosophy” of Otto Casmann (1562–1607): A Case Study of Early Modern Mosaic Physics

Author(s): Jan Čížek / Language(s): English Issue: 49/2023

This article aims to present a detailed analysis of the “Christian natural philosophy” elaborated by the German humanist philosopher and theologian Otto Casmann (1562–1607) in his various works. To this end, Casmann’s general idea of philosophia Christiana is discussed and critically evaluated. Regarding natural philosophy, or physics, attention is paid mainly to topics such as cosmogony and cosmology, which Casmann promised to have developed biblically and independently of the pagan (namely Aristotelian) tradition. However, when Casmann’s natural philosophy is analyzed in detail, his resolute emphasis on the literal reading of the Bible, the cornerstone of his entire concept, turns out to be problematic. Similarly, despite his resolutions, his natural-philosophical views are, to a considerable extent, still dependent on Aristotelian terms and concepts.

Should the Humanities Be Slow?

Should the Humanities Be Slow?

Author(s): Marcin Maria Bogusławski / Language(s): English Issue: 48/2024

In this paper I present an understanding of the humanities from the perspective of cultural ontology. In the introduction, I specify the perspective from which I am conducting my reflections, synthetically characterise how cognition is understood on its grounds, and introduce a characterisation of the humanities as relating to meaning. In what follows, I show why, from the point of view of cultural ontology, the humanities are practical. In dialogue with other concepts, I introduce the notions of ontological imagination, mindfulness, phronesis, parrhesia, (etho)ecology. With a view to the relationship between the humanities and practical rationality, I try to show why it should be a slow science.

Zarządzanie to branie odpowiedzialności, czyli impulsy dla humanistyki stosowanej w praktyce i teorii zarządzania

Zarządzanie to branie odpowiedzialności, czyli impulsy dla humanistyki stosowanej w praktyce i teorii zarządzania

Author(s): Tomasz Ochinowski,Jerzy Kociatkiewicz,Monika Kostera / Language(s): Polish Issue: 48/2024

Management is classically defined as taking responsibility. In the era of late neoliberalism, the crisis in management leads one to understand that this fundamental goal is not being achieved by mainstream management. Humanizing management is necessary to restore the balance of managed systems. This article specifically proposes a historiographical reflection and a dialogue between management and art as viable – and efficient – ways to accomplish this mission. Simultaneously, it offers hope for addressing the crisis in the humanities (as discussed by Lech Witkowski), by moving closer to concrete actions in favor of the Other. In this way, management and the humanities together can tackle the challenges of complex modernity and generate positive synergistic effects by means of taking responsibility for the future.

1790: The End of Truth in the Interpretation of Complex Contexts

1790: The End of Truth in the Interpretation of Complex Contexts

Author(s): Horst Ruthrof / Language(s): English Issue: 48/2024

The paper argues that the standard pro- and anti-Kantian reception of the Critique of Judgment has largely misconstrued the relationship between Part I and Part II of the book by failing to recognize that the former is primarily providing a series of stepping-stones laying the groundwork for the elaboration of reflective-teleological reasoning in Part II. Instead of its dominant reading as foremost relevant to the study of biological nature, the paper distils from the reflective-teleological judgment a universal principle by which we typically interpret any complex set of particulars. As such, the reflective-teleological judgment of 1790 is shown to have done away with interpretive truth, replaced by Kant with the more modest claim of intelligibility.

The Eco-Logic of Olga Tokarczuk’s Prose Worlds Tenderness and Anger as the Pillars of a New Order

The Eco-Logic of Olga Tokarczuk’s Prose Worlds Tenderness and Anger as the Pillars of a New Order

Author(s): Magdalena Ochwat,Małgorzata Wójcik-Dudek / Language(s): English Issue: 48/2024

In this paper, we offer a reading of selected novels by 2018 Nobel Prize winner Olga Tokarczuk in terms of their dedication to changing the world. We show that Tokarczuk’s essays and fiction defy genre limits and invite readers to exercise their imagination in conceptualising the world and redefining values. The alternative modes of viewing reality proposed by Tokarczuk may provide a starting point for change, in which the synergy of ostensibly mutually exclusive tenderness and anger kindles hope in the times of crisis and inspires courage to embrace change and, in doing so, to use the opportune moment (kairos) and institute a new order – one based on justice for the bio-community.

Fidelity and Integrity in the Relationship between Employee and Employer

Fidelity and Integrity in the Relationship between Employee and Employer

Author(s): Dana Volosevici,Dragoş Grigorescu / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2023

The present text aims at a conceptual analysis of the legal and moral bases involved in building and understanding the employment relationship between employer and employee from the point of view of the idea of employee fidelity to the employer. That is why the text contains, on the one hand, a legal analysis of the presumptive primacy of the employer's interest in the employee in the partnership assumed by the employment contract, especially when the employee's obligation to fidelity to the employee is associated with the idea of loyalty, and on the other hand, the article goes beyond the legal framework of the employment relationship to that of the social and moral philosophy that the employee-employer relationship assumes. For example, in the core of the moral philosophy analysis is debated the theoretical basis on which a tacit assumption of the organizational values that the employee accepts by signing the employment contract can be based and by virtue of which the employer in turn can justifiably request from the employee a fidelity and loyalty beyond the explicit provisions of the employment contract. Finally, the article tries to show that an integrative concept such as integrity, borrowed as an extension from the field of business ethics (codes of ethics and professional integrity), can be a useful solution in the balanced distribution and understanding of obligations and permissions between employee and employer in the case of the unwritten moral area of the employment contract.

MOOCs: Global Business Goals and Local Educational Strategies

MOOCs: Global Business Goals and Local Educational Strategies

Author(s): Anna Ślósarz / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2024

MOOCs are prepared by universities, research centers, business and governmental bodies. That is a device with which academic centers spread state-of-the-art. knowledge, while business entities facilitate the development of competencies, particularly in business, economics and IT. The paradox is that although MOOCs courses are open to global users, they contain distinctive features of their inventors’ and administrators’ culture because they have been created locally. In order to identify the cultural characteristics evident in the content of MOOC courses, 267 courses on creative writing posted on five platforms were analyzed: Coursera (USA), FutureLearn (UK), XuetangX (China), JMOOC (Japan) and Skill Academy (Indonesia). Skill Academy and Coursera were focused on business-marketing goals, although they represented different cultures. Chinese, Japanese and Indonesian courses reflected the responsiveness of those cultures and were people- and affiliation-oriented. They employed a holistic approach to teaching (emphasis on context), i.e. operated with live lectures, which had not happened on Western platforms. Therefore, the conviction that MOOC is a mirror of the culture in which it was created should be considered a myth. It is the MOOC platform that presents the interests of the administrators and owners. Platform owners differ in their goals: academic (general knowledge transfer becoming a thing of the past after the commercialization of Coursera and edX), marketing (focused on gaining customers and employees) or economic-political (XuetangX). For a MOOC to be useful to representatives of another culture, not only translation into another language is needed, but also a proper modification of learning objectives and methods.

Ценности и личност: етапи на развитие в контекста на една процесуална аксиология

Author(s): Sylvia Borissova / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 6/2024

Taking as a starting point the problematization of the debate on values and the understanding of the stages of personality development over the past two centuries, the article aims to dynamize the findings in the context of the formation of values and the integration of personality, by proposing a process-axiological grid for the analysis of values and their role in personality development.

Старозаветни и Новозаветни ценности – практическа реализация в съвременната ситуация. Урок по философия за IX клас

Author(s): Milena Coloma,Ognyan Uzunov / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 6/2024

This text outlines an interactive philosophy teaching model conducted among 9th-grade students of 51th Secondary School “Elisaveta Bagryana” – Sofia. The teaching is based on a topic set in the curriculum and concerns the exploration of values in the Old and New Testaments. The model examines the values of Old Testament justice and Christian love in the context of their relationship to society and the individual. It emphasizes the practical nature of both types of values and derives their relevance to specific life situations. The teaching aims to develop the skills of analysis, synthesis, argumentation, discussion, conclusion-drawing, and generalization. The stages of learning follow the sequence: from knowledge of biblical values to skills for defining them in practice, focusing on their competent application in life. The model demonstrates an approach to make learning more challenging and encourage critical thinking in an enjoyable manner. It cultivates a value model rooted in understanding and respecting differences.

Структурни предизвикателства в България пред приложимостта на теорията за ценностните полярности на демокрацията

Author(s): Venelin L. Stoychev / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 6/2024

The article presents the results of a pilot empirical study focused on the applicability in contemporary Bulgaria of William Benet’s polarities of democracy theory at organizations level. The pilot study compares three typologically different organizations – secondary schools, non-profit organizations and companies in the digital services sector. The results of the approbation of the approach of leverage of polar democratic values reveal that today in our country there are huge shortages of democratic practices introduced at organizations level. At the same time, the participants in the study simultaneously express: 1) a desire for more democratization of internal organizational life and 2) skepticism about the effectiveness and efficiency of democratic approaches to the management of the organizations they belong to. The paper provides arguments in support of the thesis that the “leverage of democracy values” approach is extremely relevant to the democratic development of the studied organizations, but that Benet’s five pairs of democratic values are rather not recognized in the current Bulgarian socio-cultural context as relevant value poles, between which organizations oscillate constantly. The pilot survey comes to the conclusion that not so much the “conscious leverage of value poles”, but rather the empowerment of the members of the studied institutions, the competitive environment and the establishment of a system of mutual control and power balance are prerequisites for democratization of the typologically different organizations included in the research.

The Metaphysics of E̩Sè̩ and the Question of Inalterability of Destiny in YorùBá Culture

Author(s): Sunday Layi Oladipupo / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2025

Inalterability of destiny is one of the major issues of philosophical contention in, and among Yorùbá scholars. It has garnered quite a number of arguments in its favour and otherwise. While, some scholars contend that the traditional understanding of destiny suggested inalterability of destiny, to others the reverse is the case. Thus, the polemics that shrouds the essence and nature of destiny in Yorùbá culture raises the question of e̩sè̩ (struggle) in Yorùbá ontological and mythological analysis of the concept of destiny. The paper, anchored its argument on the Yorùbá saying ibi orí ń gbé ni lo, k’é̩sè̩ máà sini l’ónà – where the head is taking one to, may the leg not mislead one, to repudiate the inalterability of destiny in Yorùbá culture. Hence, the paper, using philosophical methods of investigation, projects the notion of e̩sè̩ (struggle) as fourth element that constitute the entirety of human person in Yorùbá culture.

Shipwreck with a Witness: Music and Fascism in Thomas Bernhard’s “The Loser”

Author(s): Yakim Petrov / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2025

“Shipwreck with a Witness: Music and Fascism in Thomas Bernhard’s “The Loser”” is an attempt to think the multifaceted relations between music as an art and practice, and fascism as a desire as well as a political, existential, aesthetic, etc. condition and phantasm. These relations are explored through a close reading of Thomas Bernhard’s novel “The Loser” which is a fictional account of a doomed friendship between Bernhard‘s unnamed narrator, a fictionalised version of Glenn Gould, the infamous piano virtuoso, and Wertheimer – a caricature of the equally infamous philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein. It is through them that Bernhard addresses the problems of madness, desire for eternity and totality, the hatred of diversity and the Other, etc. By unpacking the dense logic and meaning of the above through ideas by Deleuze, Brassier, André Michels, etc., the text addresses the crucial figure of witnessing a transcendental trauma (fascism) qua event. Finally, the article engages with the theoretical and practical (ethical) importance of examining not just the relation between fascism and music but also the problem of the return of fascism within contemporary culture.

(Bez) tabu w literaturze (nie)osobnej. O przekraczaniu granic w tekstach Davida Walliamsa

(Bez) tabu w literaturze (nie)osobnej. O przekraczaniu granic w tekstach Davida Walliamsa

Author(s): Anna Warzocha / Language(s): Polish Issue: 6/2024

The latest children’s literature is becoming not only an insightful observer of the modern world, but also increasingly assumes the role of commentator and translator of social and cultural phenomena. It is also controversial and defined in society as taboo. This trend is part of the writing of the British writer David Walliams, whose texts break down linguistic, mental, narrative and genre barriers, thus introducing new possibilities in the art of the word dedicated to the adult audience. The concept of crossing boundaries in the analyzed readings is considered in the presented sketch about the linguistic taboo defined by Zenon Leszczynski and the cultural taboo in the sense of Sigmund Freud. The aim of these actions is to try to determine the scope of current changes in the literary way of talking to a child about man in the real and imagined world.
