The Paradoxes of Modernity: Creating Belief Through Art, Community, and Ritual
ISBN: 9783030990558 / Angielski / Twarda Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A paradox lies at the heart of modernity: the simultaneous demand to create ideas to make us better humans and communities, along with the contrary imperative that we criticize all ideals, especially the ones we have created. In philosophy we see this paradox most acutely in figures like Immanuel Kant, who states that we cannot know the essence of things and yet we must retain old ideas – God, freedom, and the soul – in order to become better and more ethical humans. Or in Friedrich Nietzsche, whose eternal recurrence, a self-created myth whose sole purpose is to get us to see the value...

Antiphilosophy of Christianity
ISBN: 9783030732851 / Angielski / Miękka Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This text presents and addresses the philosophical movement of antiphilosophy working thru the texts of Christian thinkers such as Pascal and Kierkegaard. The author as influenced by Alain Badiou, portrays these Christian thinkers as of a subjective dimension negating the possibility of an objective quest for truth. The claim here is that antiphilosophy is abundant in the eyes of these two thinkers who frame the thought event as represented by Christianity, ultimately resigning itself to more or less the opposite of philosophy itself. Readers will discover why... This text presents and addresses the philosophical movement of antiphilosophy working thru the texts of Christian thinkers such as Pascal and Kierk... |

Metaphors and Analogies in Sciences and Humanities: Words and Worlds
ISBN: 9783030906870 / Angielski / Twarda / 596 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this highly-interdisciplinary volume, we systematically study the role of metaphors and analogies in (mis)shaping our understanding of the world. Metaphors and Analogies occupy a prominent place in scientific discourses, as they do in literature, humanities and at the very level of our thinking itself. But when misused they can lead us astray, blinding our understanding inexorably. How can metaphors aid us in our understanding of the world? What role do they play in our scientific discourses and in humanities? How do they help us understand and skillfully deal with our complex...

The Self-Conscious, Thinking Subject: A Kantian Contribution to Reestablishing Reason in a Post-Truth Age
ISBN: 9783030795597 / Angielski / Miękka Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book argues that the primary function of human thinking in language is to make judgments, which are logical-normative connections of concepts. Robert Abele points out that this presupposes cognitive conditions that cannot be accounted for by empirical-linguistic analyses of language content or social conditions alone. Judgments rather assume both reason and a unified subject, and this requires recognition of a Kantian-type of transcendental dimension to them. Judgments are related to perception in that both are syntheses, defined as the unity of representations according to a...

Middle Platonism and Neoplatonism, Volume 1: The Latin Tradition
ISBN: 9780268160197 / Angielski / Twarda / 434 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "It is generally agreed that those types of philosophy that are loosely called 'Platonic' and 'Neoplatonic' played a crucial role in the history of European culture during the centuries between antiquity and the Renaissance. However, until now no scholar has attempted to describe the evolution of these forms of thought in a single comprehensive academic study." So writes Stephen Gersh in the preface to Middle Platonism and Neoplatonism: The Latin Tradition. Stephen Gersh's two-volume survey of Platonic influences upon the Middle Ages focuses on questions that are basic to scholars of...

ISBN: 9783031171727 / Angielski / Twarda / 410 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book argues for evolutionary epistemology and distinguishing functionality from physicality in the social sciences. It explores the implications for this approach to understanding in biology, economics, psychology and political science. Presenting a comprehensive overview of philosophical topics in the social sciences, the book emphasizes how all human cognition and behavior is characterized by functionality and complexity, and thus cannot be explained by the point predictions and exact laws found in the physical sciences. Realms of functional complexity – such as the market order in...

The Roots of Hermeneutics in Kant's Reflective-Teleological Judgment
ISBN: 9783031186363 / Angielski / Twarda / 402 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book challenges the standard view that modern hermeneutics begins with Friedrich Ast and Friedrich Schleiermacher, arguing instead that it is the dialectic of reflective and teleological reason in Kant’sCritique of Judgmentthat provides the actual proto-hermeneutic foundation. It is revolutionary in doing so by replacing interpretive truth claims by the more appropriate claim of rendering opaque contextsintelligible. Taking Gadamer’s comprehensive analysis of hermeneutics inTruth and Method(1960) as its point of departure, the book turns to Kant’s Critiques, reviewing his major...

A Brief History of the Relationship Between Confucianism, Daoism, and Buddhism
ISBN: 9789811972058 / Angielski / Twarda / 593 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Chinese traditions of Confucianism, Daoism, and Buddhism have a profoundly philosophical dimension. The three traditions are frequently referred to as three paths of moral teachings. In this book, Mou provides a clear account of the textual corpus that emerges to define each of these traditions and how this canonical axis was augmented by a continuing commentarial tradition as each generation reauthorized the written core for their own time and place.In his careful exegesis, Mou lays out the differences between the more religious reading of these traditions with their defining practices that...
