On the Borderlands of Queer Representations : From Downtown to Neon City, Lapland, and St Petersburg, Russia
2022
Tämä kaksikielinen ”Borderlands of Representation / Representaatioiden rajaseuduilla” -teemanumero käsittelee tunnistamisen ja tunnustamisen rajoja sekä representaatioiden ja tulkinnan politiikkaa sukupuolen, seksuaalisuuden ja ueer-tutkimuksen konteksteissa. Millaiset erot ovat näkyviä, kerrottavia tai luettavissa ja siten avoimia tulkinnoille tai väärintulkinnoille (olivatpa ne tarkoituksellisia tai tahattomia)? Miksi niistä tulee merkityksenantoprosessien ja representaatioiden politiikkaa koskevien kiistojen paikkoja ja jopa poliittisten valtataistelujen areenoita? Miten representaatioiden näkyvyys ja merkitys muuttuvat suhteessa aikaan ja paikkaan, tulkitsijan tarpeisiin ja toiveisiin s…
Days of the Cavemen? : Adorno, Spengler, and the Anatomy of Caesarism
2021
Abstract This article addresses the controversial question of Theodor W. Adorno’s debt to right-wing Zivilisationskritik by a close reading of his essay “Spengler after the Decline” (1950). The article shows that despite Adorno’s harsh polemics against Oswald Spengler’s Decline of the West (1918, 1922), he sought to make Spengler’s analysis of Weimar Germany’s undemocratic tendencies—“Caesarism”—serve progressive ends. However, Adorno’s essay was not just an effort at “coming to terms with the past” in Adenauerian West Germany. Reading the essay’s original 1941 version together with Adorno’s correspondence with Max Horkheimer sheds light on Spengler as an overlooked key (next to Max Weber, …
The Influence of the Avicennan Theory of Science on Philosophical Sufism
2020
Abstract This article discusses the application of the Avicennan theory of demonstrative science on taṣawwuf, or the Divine Science (al-ʿilm al-ilāhī), by members of the Akbarian tradition, particularly Ibn ʿArabī’s (d. 1240) stepson and most influential disciple, Ṣadr al-Dīn al-Qūnawī (d. 1274), and his commentators, among whom the most prominent was Mullā Muḥammad b. Ḥamza al-Fanārī (d. 1431). It aims to find out what kind of relationship was developed between Avicennan logic and Sufism by the two members of the Akbarian school in the post-classical Islamic thought. It also seeks to show that the convergence between different currents of Islamic thought—Sufism and philosophy in this case—…
The Question of Providence and the Problem of Evil in Suhrawardī
2021
Abstract Šihāb al-Dīn al-Suhrawardī’s philosophical works seem to contain two conflicting views on providence: in the Talwīḥāt and the Mašāriʿ, he endorses the Avicennian view, only to deny providence altogether in the Ḥikmat al-išrāq. This contribution aims to explain the seeming inconsistency by investigating it in light of the underlying question of God’s knowledge of particular things. I will also argue that despite his qualms concerning providence, Suhrawardī accepts the closely related Avicennian answer to the problem of evil.
Subjectivity and Femininity: Reading Antigone
2017
With Antigone's lecture, author answer to the question: what is a subject in the feminine? This question allows us to overcome the classic interpretations of Antigone (Hegel, Lacan) and to elaborate a new reading thanks to Kierkegaard, Butler, Derrida, Marion and to the centrality of the theme of love.
Enduring the Autoimmune Aporia of Democratic Sovereignty
2021
The aim of this article is to read Rogues, in order to show that Derrida is neither a philosopher of democracy nor a critic of sovereignty , but rather a thinker of democratic sovereignty. Taking my cue from his Aporias, I argue that democratic sovereignty is aporetically in excess over itself, for it is based on articulating the path through the im-possible passage from the unconditional injunction of the ‘promise’ to the exigency of sovereignty. That is why it can neither be absorbed into the conditions of any existing democracy nor abstracted into any pure identity of sovereignty. Political trends today fail in enduring the aprioricity of aporia, as neoliberals valorize the posited condi…

Shared experiencing, shared understandings: Intersubjectivity as a key phenomenon in drama education
2018
This article is a philosophical reflection on intersubjectivity in the context of drama education; it draws on the concept’s most recent neuroscientific basis as well as the perspectives of Merleau-Ponty, Buber and Husserl. Its purpose is to deepen our understanding of the mechanisms of interaction in learning processes in drama education. In the stream of interaction in drama, the central conditions are shared experiencing and shared understandings. Intersubjectivity encompasses both of these. This study views intersubjectivity as an innate capacity and a real phenomenon – one that is a key phenomenon in the interactions of drama education. peerReviewed
Quando recte consideratur de contractione, omnia sunt clara. Singolarità e finalità nel De docta ignorantia di Nicola Cusano
2008
Muovendo da un confronto con la successiva e affine dialettica della contrazione formulata da Giordano Bruno, il saggi focalizza l’impianto teorico del De docta ignorantia (1440) di Nicola Cusano, mirando a delineare per questa via il nucleo teorico fondamentale dell’elaborazione cusaniana, gravitante intorno ai temi dell’unità del principio, della sua struttura trinitaria, e del suo dispiegarsi al di fuori di sé nella varietà della manifestazione. Il saggio propone la tesi della continuità e coerenza dell’itinerario cusaniano come rimodulazione continua del capolavoro del 1440, misurandosi con la posizione divergente di Hans Blumenberg, che in continuità con un diffuso orientamento storiog…
