Oscar Perea-Rodriguez deposited Serafí de Centelles, comte d’Oliva, i la cultura valenciana del Renaixement in the group
Medieval Studies on Humanities Commons 3 years, 8 months agoA pesar que puga semblar una mica pueril, crec que he de començar aquest treball amb una asseveració rotunda: el Cancionero general no es va editar a València per casualitat. Les edicions de 1511 i 1514 no van ser solament el resultat del moltes vegades problemàtic pelegrinatge vital dels erudits literaris de l’època que, com Hernando del Castil…[Read more]

Philosophy of Religion on Humanities Commons 3 years, 8 months agoNotes on the second half of Nicholas Ray’s ‘Tragedy and Otherness: Sophocles, Shakespeare, Psychoanalysis’—a reading of Shakespeare’s ‘Julius Caesar ‘, with some interesting dimensions for the student of retroprospective action. The relationship to the Freudian project is rather indirect, but the chapter stands on its own strength as an o…[Read more]

José Angel GARCÍA LANDA deposited La Segunda República, Beevor la Guerra Civil in the group
Historical theory and the philosophy of history on Humanities Commons 3 years, 9 months agoSpanish abstract: La Segunda República española duró no del 31 al 36, sino del 31 al 39, aunque la etapa de la guerra civil (1936-1939) tiene otro carácter, y quizá haya que llamarla a ésa la tercera república. Es normal por tanto que una historia de la guerra civil empiece con una historia de la República. Vemos aquí la perspectiva que sobre el…[Read more]

Allan Savage deposited HUMAN NATURE: 20th Century Philosophy in a new Key in the group
Philosophy of Religion on Humanities Commons 3 years, 9 months agoThis essay is a précis (for which I take full responsibility) of Chapters One and Two of Leslie
Dewart’s seminal book consisting of Nine Chapters. The perspective he presented here, to my
mind, sets a fresh intellectual trajectory for philosophical contemplation. Written towards the
end of the 20th century the book is not an easy read, bu…[Read more] -
Sarah Lowengard started the topic Reading/listening/watching recommendations? in the discussion
Science Studies and the History of Science on Humanities Commons 3 years, 9 months agoI wonder if you–historians of technology/historians of sciences/science studies specialists, and others on this list–can recommend useful readings regarding scientific practices and nostalgia. This is to help me with some research into some events taking place between about 1860 & 1960. I’m good on nostalgia in objects, and on the idea of…[Read more]

RONALD VINCE deposited The Sacrifice of Isaac as Psycho-Moral Drama in the group
Medieval Studies on Humanities Commons 3 years, 9 months agoThe horror of the situation at the center of the story of Abraham’s near-sacrifice of Isaac in Genesis has historically prompted a myriad of attempts to reconcile the apparently sadistic demands of God with normal human sensibilities. The tension–both in the story itself and in critical reactions to the story–is inherently dramatic, but the…[Read more]

Allan Savage deposited A CHRISTIAN PHENOMENOLOGICAL CULTURE: A in the group
Philosophy of Religion on Humanities Commons 3 years, 9 months agoIn this short book, only an introductory and partial discussion can be undertaken respecting the issues distinguish between religious (philosophical) and secular (political) cultural values from a phenomenological point of view. Further, the ideas I consider here are not original. By and large they derive from a new interpretation of human…[Read more]

Philosophy of Religion on Humanities Commons 3 years, 10 months agoSpanish abstract: Nos comportamos en sociedad de maneras que potencien nuestra autoestima, eligiendo las estrategias adecuadas para ello. Algo en esta línea había argumentado Mark Twain en su sarcástico ensayo ‘What Is Man?’ —pero ahora los sarcasmos de Twain parece que tienen respaldo científico en la psicología evolucionista. Así comenta…[Read more]

Rochelle Forrester deposited The Big History of Humanity: A Macrohistory, Macrosociology and Metahistory of Humankind in the group
Historical theory and the philosophy of history on Humanities Commons 3 years, 11 months agoThe ultimate cause of much historical, social and cultural change is the gradual accumulation of human knowledge of the environment. Human beings use the materials in their environment to meet their needs and increased human knowledge of the environment enables human needs to be met in a more efficient manner. The human environment has a…[Read more]

Allan Savage deposited Secular Polity at Vatican II in the group
Philosophy of Religion on Humanities Commons 3 years, 11 months agoThis article concludes with the following observations. First, there is a demonstrable shift from monarchical government to democratic governance in the Church as a product of the evolution of ecclesial polity. But it must be acknowledged the secular polity is incompatible with divinely inspired government as is most evident from a…[Read more]

Albert R Haig deposited Dialectic as Ostension Towards the Transcendent: Language and Mystical Intersubjectivity in Plotinus’ Enneads in the group
Philosophy of Religion on Humanities Commons 3 years, 11 months agoThe theory of language that underlies Plotinus’ Enneads is considered in relation to his
broader metaphysical vision. For Plotinus, language is neither univocal nor equivocal,
but is something in-between, incapable of precisely describing reality, but nonetheless
not completely useless. Propositional knowledge expressed discursively r…[Read more] -
