Le temps du désir : ontologies de l'imaginaire et de l'affectivité chez Sartre, Merleau- Ponty et Grimaldi
2013
This study aims at confronting the ontologies of the imaginary of Sartre, Merleau-Ponty and Grimaldi. Following the path of a critical assessment of Bergsonism, each of these philosophies develops by granting ontological value to the negative, and through a reconsideration of the meaning of temporality. A new approach of negativity emerges from the reflection on the status of the image and further, upon the relationships between real and imaginary, past and present, conscious and subconscious. Merleau-Ponty and Grimaldi thus reject dialectics of being and nothingness in favour of the idea of a negativity thoroughly penetrating being itself; the first one opening the way for a phenomenologic…
Understanding youth athletes' life designing processes through dream day narratives
2018
A number of studies have investigated career pathways in elite sport with retrospective designs, but few studies have explored how youth elite athletes construct narratives about their future lives and how their dreams and hopes relate to their careers in sport and other life contexts. We drew on career construction theory to understand youth elite athletes' dreams for the future and prominent life themes. Seventeen Finnish youth elite athletes (7 men, 10 women) in the first year of upper secondary sport school participated in the study. They were asked to make visual representations of their “dream days”, and these were used as aids for reflection in low-structured interviews where partici…
Obras de ficción, formas de conciencia y literatura
2017
espanol"Relatar lo ocurrido como invencion: una introduccion a la filosofia de la ficcion contemporanea (2016a)" ofrece al lector en castellano una magnifica oportunidad para familiarizarse con algunos aspectos centrales de la filosofia del lenguaje contemporanea y sus implicaciones para la teoria de la ficcion. Garcia-Carpintero recorre los argumentos fundamentales en favor y en contra de cada una de las posiciones relevantes, y nos propone finalmente un analisis alternativo de la norma de la ficcion y una teoria neofregeana de los terminos referenciales que logra esquivar algunas objeciones tradicionales. Esta discusion incluye, no obstante, dos objeciones a su norma de la ficcion: una se…

The Process of Pregnancy: Paradoxical Temporalities of Prenatal Entities
2021
AbstractIn this article, we reflect on the particular temporal structure of pregnancies and prenatal entities with the aim to contribute to the field of the sociology of pregnancy. Medical models and technology shape today’s notion of pregnancy as a linear, nine-month developmental process that leads to the birth of a child. Through ultrasound technology and prenatal examinations, prenatal entities have thus historically gained a present ‘being’ as a developing, unborn child. While these ideas undoubtedly greatly influence the participants’ interpretations, a culturalistic perspective on time alone does not do justice to the phenomenon’s lived tensions and the temporal complexity of the phe…
State Without Territory: a legal-political heresy
2021
The sovereign, territorial, nation state form has imposed itself globally. Nevertheless, as Carl Schmitt points out: «Statehood is not a universal concept, valid for all times and all peoples». In other words, state is not the only possible way to establish a relationship between space, humanity and power. This paper intends to historicise the current geopolitical paradigm and drafting a heresy of the public law doctrine: a State Without Territory, a diasporic political community reclaiming some of the traditional government functions. In order to rethink the state concept, a pattern that shapes and affects so strongly both external reality and our minds, a methodology is needed. The author…
Verso una topica dell'immaginazione
2020
In this paper I will outline a genealogy which could contribute to Siri Hustvedt’s very important statement in her essay Three Emotional Stories: Reflection on Memory, the Imagination, Narrative, and the Self (2011): ‘Writing fiction is remembering what never happened.’ Hustvedt’s essay offers a wonderful analysis of the role of memory and imagi- nation in narrative. But how to situate their very space in human behaviour and mind? Can we outline a topic of imagination in its relation with memory? I suggest that an appropriate blend between the long tradition of philosophical anthropology and the new neuroscientific interpretations of embodied simulation could help us to refine our concepts …
FROM UNBURDENING TO LIBERATED EMBODIED SIMULATION A HISTORY OF CONCEPTS
2020
What is imagination? How to think this «act» (action)? How to describe its phenomenology? And, above all, how to situate its very space in human behavior and mind? Can we outline a topic of imagination? I suggest that an ap- propriate blend between the tradition of philosophical anthropology, from Johann Gottfried Herder to Hans Blumenberg, and the new neuroscientific interpretation of «embodied simulation», could help us to refine our concept of imagination. I quote Herder just to refer to a noble forerunner of this genealogy, being the focus of my paper on a more controversial figure, namely Arnold Gehlen, author of an inspiring work of twentieth-century anthropology, Man. His Nature and …
Exilerfahrung und Imagination bei SAID – Selbstfindung durch fabelhafte Geschichten
2017
Der folgende Ausatz setzt sich mit der Frage auseinander, wie es dem Autor gelingt, seine Exilerfahrung mit der Welt der Fantasie zu verweben und dabei vielfach ausgezeichnete Kinder- und Jugendliteratur zu produzieren. Die hier herangezogenen Texte sind Es war einmal eine Blume (1998), Clara (2001) und Schneebären lügen nie (2013). Jede dieser märchenhaften Geschichten fokussiert sich auf das Motiv des Exils und damit auch auf Erscheinungen, die in der traurigen Existenz des Exilierten vorkommen, d.h. Einsamkeit, Suche nach der eigenen Identität und bei SAID Flucht in eine fabelähnliche Dimension.
