O sujeito do conhecimento – o objeto da ação: a “passagem”, identidade e diferença na filosofia de Arthur Schopenhauer

2009

In the present text, I’ll dwell upon the tensions or contradictions in the philosophy of Schopenhauer, and I’ll try to understand them instead of accusing the philosopher of irrationality or inconsequence. The first part of the text investigates Schopenhauer’s theory of knowledge under the aspects of difference and passage, and the second part investigates the liason between etchis and aesthetics searching for an answer for the question of the present identity in the determination of compassion as an expression of the knowledge of the unity of the will.

Political and religious aspects of community according to Kant

2016

Based on the concept of community, Kant's conception of religion may be connected, on my view, to the question of which mental attitude is suitable for the collective life of human society. It is possible to imagine a successful community, even if such a community does not exist in the empirical world, and to be oriented toward this ideal without ever being able to realize it. According to Kant, human moral self-understanding is developed by human reason, and this explains the structural similarity between the secular republic and the Kingdom of God under the specific conditions of the enlightened consciousness of a person who thinks for herself. Thus the anthropological "fact": the self-un…

Die ethische Relevanz der ästhetischen Kontemplation

2012

Schopenhauers hat seine Philosophie von der Welt als Wille und Vorstellung als Gesamtsystem in vier Teilen durchgefuhrt: Die Einheit des Wesens der Welt wird sichtbar im Ausgang vom willens- und zweckbestimmten naturlichen Erkennen (1. Buch) uber die Erkenntnis der Erscheinungshaftigkeit (Objektitat) des Willens am eigenen Leib (2. Buch) und die Moglichkeit der willensfreien, idealen Erkenntnis in der asthetischen Kontemplation (3. Buch) bis zur Durchschauung des principium individuationis, d.h. der Selbsterkenntnis des Willens (4. Buch). In diesem Beitrag wird die Theorie der asthetischen Kontemplation als eine Philosophie des Bewusstseins aufgefasst, die die zentrale Bedeutung des dritten…

A relevância ética da contemplação estética

2012

Schopenhauer organized his philosophy of the world as will and representationsystematically, dividing the work into four sections. The unity of the essence of the worldarises in different ways, according to the four books of the main work, by means of ournatural volitional and purposive cognition (book 1), the recognition of the “objectity” of thewill, experienced on the own body (book 2), the possibility of ideal cognition, freed fromthe will, in aesthetic contemplation (book 3) up to the understanding (“Durchschauung”)of the principium individuationis: the self-knowledge of the will (book 4). In this article,the theory of aesthetic contemplation is regarded as a philosophy of consciousnes…

Geist im Sinnlichen. Eine Deutung der transzendentalen Ideen im Ausgang von Kants Anthropologie

2019

Ende 2018 ist unter dem Titel Die Aktualität des Geistes ein Sammelband erschienen, der, so der Untertitel, „Klassische Positionen nach Kant“ vorstellt:„Ausgangspunkt der Beiträge“, die sich mit dem Begriff des Geistes bei Denkern der klassischen deutschen Philosophie wie Schelling und Hegel, aber auch Jacobi und Hölderlin über Humboldt, Nietzsche, Cassirer und Simmel bis zu Adorno befassen, soll Kants Philosophie sein, in dessen Werk der Begriff des Geistes allerdings „keine zentrale systematische Rolle ein[nimmt]“ (Noller/Zwenger 2018, 10f.), wie die Herausgeber Jörg Noller und Thomas Zwenger in ihrer „Einführung“ einräumen.
