Dieva Tēva ķermeņa koncepts Pēdējo Dienu Svēto Jēzus Kristus Baznīcas mācībā
2015
Darba tēze ir „PDS mācība par Dieva Tēva ķermeni ir veidojusies absolūtisma un finitisma ideju mijiedarbības rezultātā”. Darba mērķis ir izpētīt un iepazīstināt ar Dieva Tēva ķermeņa konceptu PDS Jēzus Kristus Baznīcas mācībā; noskaidrot, kādas ir kopsakarības dotajai Baznīcas mācībai par Dieva Tēva ķermeni un tās atklāsmes tradīciju; izpētīt, kā šī doktrīna izveidojusies, kā arī mijiedarbojas ar baznīcas mācību attiecībā uz uzskatiem par kosmosa uzbūvi. Darba uzdevums ir izpētīt un salīdzināt mormoņu mācībā esošās idejas par Dieva Tēva ķermeni un garīgās un fiziskās pasaules uzbūves elementiem, kas attiecas uz ķermeņa dabu, kā arī salīdzināt absolūtistu un finitistu idejas par Dieva Tēva d…
Descartes on Corporeal Substances
2015
I defend in this paper the following two theses: first, that Descartes was a Pluralist as regards extended substances, that is, that for him the extended world includes a plurality of bodies, including ordinary objects, each of which may be adequately described as a substance; and that for him the notion of substance is a rather slim notion, making no specific requirements as regards individuation or persistence conditions, and determining therefore no strict constraints on the kind of material objects that may count as substances. In short, I will be arguing for a certain view concerning the extension of the phrase ‘extended substance’ by defending a specific view of what ‘substance’ means…
Naturalizzazione, mente e conoscenza
2009
Naturalizzazione, mente e conoscenza - A controversial issue regarding Quine’s naturalised epistemology is that it may involve some form of reductionism. This article focuses on one of these forms, analysing the interplay of his philosophy of mind and epistemology. It aims to show that if we take into proper consideration the way in which the version of anomalous monism embraced affects his conception of mental states like sensations and propositional attitudes, Quine’s philosophy of mind should be regarded as anti-reductionist. Through a discussion of his theory of perception, I try to argue that what is entailed by it is, in a sense only partially accepted by Quine himself, that neither p…
ÉTICA DE LOS CREYENTES
2011
In this paper I analyze the relationship between religious beliefs of individuals and their attitudes to certain moral and political issues. In some cases, certain behaviours of believers contradict the doctrines of the religions that they claim to profess, although they don’t feel less faithful. This dissonance between religious doctrines and beliefs of a religion’s followers can be explained through the concept of the privatization of religious beliefs, according to which at present, religious beliefs have lost their objectivity in the context of moral monism. Thus, the believers’ convictions are influenced by the social influences on the way the believer understand
Seeing and Touching: The Optic and the Haptic in Merleau-Ponty’s Thought
2020
It is well known that Merleau-Ponty’s philosophy developed remarkably between the Structure of Behaviour, which appeared in 1942, and the later working notes of The Visible and the Invisible, written in 1960–1961. More precisely, through a self-criticism that started immediately after the publication of the Phenomenology of Perception, Merleau-Ponty’s philosophy progressed from a meditation on embodied consciousness – which was still anchored to the ontological dualism that it tried to overcome – to a radically different reflection on the status of flesh as the “element” of Being, and on Being itself as “true negative,” or as “Being of deflection” and as Wesen, in the verbal sense of this t…
Oltre il dilemma monismo/dualismo: l’ontologia non riduzionista della coscienza nel naturalismo biologico di John Searle
2006
La relazione mira a testare la fecondità del modello naturalista ed antiriduzionista dell’ontologia della coscienza elaborato da John Searle alla luce della sua capacità di superare l’apparentemente inevitabile dilemma monismo/dualismo. La posizione searleana rivela la propria attendibilità nella sua capacità di superare le aporie concettuali alle quali sembrerebbero esporsi alcune tra le più avanzate proposte teoriche contemporanee sull’ontologia della coscienza, con riferimento in particolare alle proposte elaborate da Dennett e Chalmers in chiave rispettivamente eliminativista e dualista. Si analizza inoltre la proposta searleana in ordine alla sua capacità di proporre una soluzione conv…
Recensione a John R. Searle, La mente, Raffaello Cortina Editore, Milano, 2005
2005
La recensione mette in rilievo la fecondità teorica della filosofia della mente di Searle, per la prima volta presentata in questo volume come teoria unitaria del mentale capace di far fronte efficacemente, in una prospettiva naturalista ed antiriduzionista capace di superare il tradizionale dilemma tra monismo e dualismo, ai principali problemi sul tappeto del dibattito contemporaneo, dal problema della coscienza a quelli dell'intenzionalità, della causalità mentale e del libero arbitrio.
La "normatività" tra etica e metafisica
2017
The Author’s aim is to highlight the limits of monist metaphysics which underpin the paradigm of Secular Humanism. In fact, all forms of monism consider good and evil either as internal momentums to the logic of development of the world, or as mere illusions within the evolutionary process. Can tragedies as the Holocaust be interpreted by such a monistic approach? The distinction between ‘polar opposition’ and ‘logic of contradiction’ is introduced by Romano Guardini. This is based on a creationistic metaphysic and it is useful to show that our practical-moral investigation is legitimated only by a theist approach. By considering good and evil as two aspect with mutual implications, monisti…

Una crisi annunciata. Aporie e incrinature dello Stato liberale di diritto
2012
Negli stessi anni in cui la giuspubblicistica tedesca metteva a punto in chiave monistica la nozione di Rechtsstaat, la società si andava risistemando secondo moduli organizzativi e statuti complessi, rinnovando il suo carico di contraddizioni, differenziazioni, spinte aggregative e tendenze autonomistiche. La rassicurante immagine di uno Stato-persona in grado di neutralizzare mediante il suo diritto le tendenze centrifughe e di dissolvere nella sua unità politica le particolarità frazionali strideva con l’articolazione complessa e pluralistica della società industriale, con una realtà che non era formata da individui astratti, eguali e indifferenziati, ma da soggetti concreti, diseguali e…
