Humusica 2, article 19: Techno humus systems and global change - Conservation agriculture and 4/1000 proposal
2018
International audience; Philosophy can overlap pedology. It is not casual that life begins and finishes in the soil. We separated the concepts of Humipedon, Copedon and Lithopedon. Some sections were dedicated to the founders of the movement for a new type of agriculture (agroecology). They simply proclaim to accompany the process of natural evolution instead of spending a lot of energy in hunting competitor organisms with pesticides or boosting the soil with mineral fertilisation and tillage. The core of the article is built on a biological concept of the soil and shows researches supporting this view. After pointing to the soil structure and illustrating its natural genesis, explaining wh…
A reconciliation with Darwin? Divergent views on evolutionism in Erich Wasmann and Jaime Pujiula, biologists and Jesuits
2016
A diferencia del cas Galileu, l’esglesia Catolica ha gestionat amb discrecio el pensament evolucionista i les obres de Charles Darwin. Entre els cientifics catolics, hi trobem defensors d’un evolucionisme amanit amb remarcables excepcions relacionades amb l’origen divi de la vida i de l’especie humana. L’entomoleg i jesuita Erich Wasmann arriba a la conclusio que la teoria evolutiva podia donar explicacio a les seues observacions sobre els mirmecofils i adopta un evolucionisme catolicament matisat que Ernst Haeckel considerava fraudulent pero molt perillos. El bioleg i jesuita catala Jaume Pujiula segui l’obra de Wasmann tot i prenent posicions ideologiques mes radicals que la de l’entomole…
Biskup Würzburga Johann Philipp von Schönborn we francuskojęzycznej korespondencji Charlesa II i Jamesa II Stuartów z lat 1652-1673
2021
Podpisany w 1648 r. pokój westfalski nie kończył zmagań wojennych w Europie Zachodniej. Do 1658 r. trwała wojna francusko-hiszpańska, a po drugiej stronie kanału La Manche Anglia targana była najpierw wojną domową, a potem, pod władzą Oliwera Cromwella, uwikłała się w konflikt z Holandią (1652–1654), który stanowił jedynie preludium do kolejnych wojen między tymi państwami. Kluczową rolę w dobie zmagań z Niderlandami odgrywała Rzesza Niemiecka, gdzie jedną z czołowych postaci był biskup Würzburga (arcybiskup Moguncji) Johann Philipp von Schönborn. W planach politycznych uwzględniali go dyplomaci francuscy i habsburscy. O zainteresowaniu Anglików jego osobą świadczą listy Charlesa II i James…

I festeggiamenti per le incoronazioni a Palermo di Vittorio Amedeo II (1713) e Carlo III (1735): musica, spettacolo e cerimonia
2018
Le entrate e le rispettive incoronazioni a Palermo di Vittorio Amedeo II di Savoia e Carlo III di Borbone sono state analizzate sotto diversi punti di vista. Tuttavia gli aspetti musicali sono stati finora poco considerati, se non a margine di studi più generali sulla vita musicale palermitana. Il presente contributo è riservato in modo specifico alla cornice sonora dei due eventi, dimostrando come questa costituisse un elemento essenziale al funzionamento della festa e al soddisfacimento dei suoi scopi. Le descrizioni e le testimonianze iconografiche propongono spunti di indagine sulle modalità di esecuzione e sui rapporti con il contesto celebrativo, fornendo anche informazioni sulle occa…
Lev Tolstoy's Appreciation of Charles Dickens?
2022
In Lev Tolstoy’s letters, memoirs and even literary works, mentions of Charles Dickens, his works and his influence on the Russian writer are found often enough to deserve a closer look. Of the Victorian writers Tolstoy read, Dickens was the most eminent, and his appreciation of the English author was permanent and unchangeable. Even in the period of his spiritual crisis, when he rejected most of his own works, some inspired by Dickens, he did not change his positive attitude towards his favourite English writer. Tolstoy read many of Dickens’s works, both in English and in Russian. He even managed to publish in his publishing house “Intermediary” Dickens’s Little Dorrit, Great Expectations,…
Mother's Death: A Turning Point in the Lives of Charles Dickens's David Copperfield and Lev Tolstoy's Nikolay Irtenev
2022
Although it is not possible to establish exactly when Lev Tolstoy started reading Charles Dickens, it was in the 1850s, he was reading David Copperfield, which was one of his most favourite novels by the English writer. David Copperfield is probabiy the most popular of all Dickens’s novels, and it is certainly the most autobiographical. The tendency to combine personal with general in an ambiguous generic package was also present from the beginning of Tolstoy’s career. His Childhood can be described as a pseudo-autobiography that imitates autobiography in all aspects, except one: its author and narrator are not the same person. A strong mother-son relationship is clearly visible in David Co…
Charles Dickens's "A Christmas Carol" and Lev Tolstoy's "Where Love Is, There Is God Also": The Quest For the Meaning of Life
2021
Uznanie Lwa Tołstoja dla Charlesa Dickensa, którego pisarz rosyjski podziwiał za demokratyczne i humanistyczne cechy jego pisarstwa, było trwałe i niezmienne. Proces odnajdywania sensu życia i powrotu do społeczeństwa jest jednym z głównych tematów Opowieści wigilijnej i Gdzie miłość – tam i Bóg. Jednak źródła samotności i izolacji bohaterów Dickensa i Tołstoja mają różne podłoża. Scrooge celowo odizolował się od swojej rodziny i unikał kontaktów międzyludzkich. Źródłem samotności Martina był smutek i żal jaki towarzyszył mu po śmierci żony i dzieci. Stąd też bohater Turgieniewa nie widział sensu swojego dalszego życia. Seria wydarzeń i spotkań prowadzi obu bohaterów do wypracowania nowego …
