“A vida é apenas um espelho” – o conceito crítico de vida de Schopenhauer
2012
Schopenhauer e considerado o precursor ou o primeiro representante da filosofia da vida, desenvolvida posteriormente por Dilthey, Nietzsche, Bergson e outros. Em contraste com a filosofia classica da vida e com as concepcoes eticas a ela relacionadas, a vida em Schopenhauer nao e vista como um fim, mas como um meio para um outro fim, ou seja, para a etica, que culmina na negacao da vontade de vida. Ja nas primeiras anotacoes manuscritas, Schopenhauer usa diversas metaforas para caracterizar a vida como um meio para o conhecimento etico. Com bastante frequencia aparece a imagem da vida como espelho, no qual o homem ve sua propria natureza e assim a essencia do mundo. Na obra madura, essa ima…
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…
„Das Leben ist nur ein Spiegel“ – Schopenhauers kritischer Lebensbegriff
2012
Schopenhauer gilt als Vorreiter oder erster Vertreter der Lebensphilosophie, wie sie später von Dilthey, Nietzsche, Bergson und anderen entfaltet wurde. Im Unterschied zur klassischen Lebensphilosophie und zu den an sie anknüpfenden ethischen Entwürfen wird das Leben bei Schopenhauer aber nicht als Zweck betrachtet, sondern als Mittel zu einem anderen Zweck, nämlich für die Ethik, die in der Verneinung des Willens zum Leben gipfelt. Schon in den frühesten handschriftlichen Aufzeichnungen verwendet Schopenhauer verschiedene Metaphern, um das Leben als Medium der ethischen Erkenntnis zu charakterisieren. Besonders häufig tritt dabei das Bild vom Leben als Spiegel auf, in dem der Mensch sein e…

On flora semantics in house names found in Vidzeme: materials contained in the 1826 counting of souls in Vidzeme province
2014
On flora semantics in house names found in Vidzeme: materials contained in the 1826 counting of souls in Vidzeme province The information of the counting of souls containing both house names and names of individuals is an essential aspect of historical onomastics. The first counting of souls in Vidzeme took place in 1782 and coincided with the 4 th analogous census of the provinces of Russia. Subsequently these took place at irregular intervals, the 5 th in 1795, the 6 th in 1811, the 7 th in 1816, the 8 th in 1834, the 9 th in 1850, and the final, 10 th in 1858. The number of house names entered in the 1826 counting of souls in Vidzeme province (guberna) is 14,500, including those of peasa…
Federalism and Ethnic Minorities in Ethiopia: Ideology, Territoriality, Human Rights, Policy
2014
In 1994 Ethiopia has adopted a new constitution, considered one of the most advanced in terms of provisions for human rights. The progressive ratification of several international treaties on minority rights had already begun in 1991, immediately after the fall of the Derg regime. This progress has brought Ethiopia into the UN monitoring system, but the review of the official UN documents reveals the mismatch between the mentioned constitutional and international steps and the on-ground situation. This article considers two possible causes of this gap. The first is the particular form of ethnic federalism, first introduced with the Charter of the Transitional Government of Ethiopia and late…
Kjønn og religiøse grenser: Unge muslimer og kristnes forhandlinger av kjønn i migrantmenigheter
2019
Artikkelen belyser unge muslimer og kristnes forhandling av kjønn i migrantmenigheter: 1) Hvordan forhandler unge muslimer og kristne forventningene knyttet til kjønn, forbundet med religiøse klesdrakter og kjønnsdelte arbeidsoppgaver? Og 2), hva kan ungdommenes oppfatninger av religiøse koder og kjønnsdelte arbeidsoppgaver fortelle om symbolsk grensedragning mellom deres tilhørighet til en minoritetsgruppe og tilhørighet til majoritetssamfunnet? Data består av 23 kvalitative intervjuer med tenåringer og unge voksne i alderen 16–35 år. Ungdommene forhandlet stadig kleskoder og kjønnsdelte arbeidsoppgaver ut fra ulike religiøse, moralske og kulturelle forventninger. De skilte mellom religion…
Kant, la Ilustración y la Domesticación del Ser Humano
2011
RESUMENEste trabajo pretende entender qué idea de justicia implícita es inherente a las reflexiones de Kant sobre la Ilustración y en particular en su artículo publicado en 1784 sobre este tema. Para poder entender esta noción, demuestro cómo Kant pretende redefinir las relaciones entre el Estado y los individuos, neutralizando lo que llama la domesticación del ser humano. La liberación que surge de este proceso debe provocar una redefinición de la conducta política y legal del Estado en relación con los ciudadanos, ampliando y garantizando al mismo tiempo sus derechos. ABSTRACT This paper aims to show what kind of implicit idea of justice underlies some of the reflections of Kant concernin…
Les lieux de mémoire victimaire en Europe : une culture commune et concurrente
2020
Since the 1990s, memorials and museums devoted to the victims of the massacres perpetrated in the twentieth century have multiplied in Europe, then in the world. This social, political and cultural fact is new. It reveals a radical change in historical representation where for centuries, only the victorious hero was celebrated in official history. In this context, specific memory sites, called “victim memory places”, have emerged. The Second World War is the turning point in this history of memory. The memory of the Holocaust is the model. But other memories, often competing, have also developed recently.This study proposes to record this break in the long duration of the history. Where doe…
