Annäherung an die deutsche Frühromantik als Seelentherapie in der Biographie und im Frühwerk der Ricarda Huch
2021
The first recognised professional writer of the German-speaking area, Doctor of History, critical observer of her times and a literature historian Ricarda Hutch was interested in the ideals of (early) German Romanticism throughout her life. This paper presents Huch’s interest in Romanticism in three stages. First, Huch’s subjective rapprochement with Romanticism will be presented. The second theme discussed in the article are some aspects of her literary-intellectual work on German Romanticism. Thirdly, the story of Huch, which was created under the influence of romantic ideals, will be discussed.
Adolphe Gubler y el <em>Journal de Thérapeutique</em> (1874-1883)
1993
El presente trabajo pretende ser un acercamiento a una de las revistas francesas de terapéutica que ejercieron mayor influencia en la medicina española del siglo XIX: el Journal de Thérapeutique. A pesar de que tuvo una pervivencia relativamente corta, desde 1874 a 1883, se publicó durante una de las etapas más importantes de la historia de la terapéutica y farmacología europeas, que se caracterizó ·por acercar a la realidad clínica los nuevos y revolucionarios avances de la farmacología experimental que había iniciado François Magendie con gran éxito. El alma de la publicación fue Adolphe Gubler, que influyó mucho sobre los principales cultivadores del arte de curar españoles del último cu…
Sobre la filosofia de l’humanista valencià Joan Serra al De contemplatione amicicie. Notes a una traducció catalana
2013
Resum: Presentem la traducció catalana del De contemplatione amicicie, escrit per l’humanista valenciàJoan Serra l’any 1454. La traducció parteix de l’edició curada per Evencio Beltran de l’únic manuscritconegut: BNF ms Nat. lat. 8756. La translació s’acompanya d’una introducció historicofilosòficaarticulada al voltant de l’analogia fonamental de l’obra, a saber, la concòrdia absoluta de dos amicsés com la unió perfecta del cos i de l’ànima humana. S’hi analitzen les fonts fonamentals: Cicerói Pseudo-Agustí, i s’hi constata l’organització dual dels continguts del text, en tant que dedica elscapítols senars a la consideració de la unió del cos i l’ànima segons la filosofia natural, mentre qu…
What does Ramon Llull mean when he says «[el resclús] se maravellá com podia esser que Deus no exoya la natura humana de Jesucrist, qui pregava per s…
2014
The proto-novel Fèlix, o Llibre de meravelles contains many unsettling «meravelles» or «wonders». One such consists in an observation made by a «recluse» —rather than by a professional theologian— concerning the prayers of Christ and of Mary and the angels, etc., to the effect that their prayers have been unable to call forth any response from God. The efficacy of such prayers is thus brought into question, as is the readiness of God’s mercy and grace. By contextualising such matters within medieval currents of Neoplatonism, particularly the doctrine of causality, I argue that Llull presents a causally conceived theorisation of the hypostatic union. I identify Biblical and medieval preceden…
A Closed Book: Opacity of the Human Self in Mullā Ṣadrā
2014
Mullā Ṣadrā Shīrāzī (d. 1636) subscribes at large to the Avicennian view according to which the human subject is always and fully aware of herself. At the same time, his eschatology hinges on the Qur’ānic motive of the soul as a closed book that is first opened on the Final Day, that is, on the idea that each soul’s share in the afterlife should be understood as the full revelation of the soul’s true nature to itself. The two ideas thus have seemingly contradictory entailments: the soul is fully aware of and transparent to itself, but at the same time it has aspects that can remain opaque to it, at least in this life. The task of this paper is to investigate whether Ṣadrā can coherently hol…
La destrucción de la modernidad republicana. (Sin)razones del exilio pedagógico español
2019
espanolEste texto expone los motivos que empujaron al exilio —exterior e interior— a millares de maestros, inspectores, profesores y cientificos espanoles, prestando especial atencion al llamado «exilio pedagogico». Los docentes e investigadores afines a la Republica se sintieron condenados y amenazados por los insurgentes por aunar una triple identidad: la de republicanos (el enemigo absoluto, «encarnacion del mal»), la de intelectuales (extranjerizantes y «envenenadores del alma popular»), y la de maestros («traidores a la patria», laicos y propagadores del credo republicano). A esta triple identidad, motivo —sinrazon— de exilio, se anaden dos causas —sinrazones— mas de enorme importancia…
La struttura della persona, le emozioni e l’educazione del sentire: prospettive fenomenologiche
2018
Argomento di questo contributo è il rilievo formativo delle emozioni. Si tratta di un argomento oggi molto presente nelle ricerche pedagogiche e gli educatori sono concordi nel dire che non si può avere cura della persona senza una specifica cura delle emozioni. Diversi sono i costrutti psicologici e le proposte didattiche relative al tema. Tuttavia, spesso si declinano gli obiettivi educativi della cura delle emozioni nella sola dimensione del benessere psicologico tralasciando l’orizzonte della vita buona (Bruzzone, 2012). In questa tendenza la pedagogia fenomenologica riconosce gli effetti di un ingenuo psicologismo.
Pia Desideria : Entre el aguardiente y la vida ascética. Las calaveras borrachas claman por el chinguirito (México, 1836)
2020
ABSTRACT: The allegory of the body as a prison of the soul was visually depicted as a skeleton that imprisons a figure with childish features. One of the earliest examples of this image is the emblem «Infelix ego homo!» included in Herman Hugo’s Pia Desideria (1624); however the pictura was incorporated in other media and contexts allowing its survival even to the end of the 19th century. In Mexico, it evolved from an ascetic-moralistic book to a popular pamphlet of ghostly apparitions revealed in dreams. How did this emblem –based on Neoplatonic philosophy– evolve from a book written in Latin to a popular nineteenth century pamphlet? Did it conserve part of its original meaning?

La ejemplaridad de la muerte y la inmortalidad del saber en la literatura sapiencial medieval
2022
El origen escriturario de la muerte como castigo es el punto de partida de su ejemplaridad que, basada en presupuestos teológicos, le imprimió un halo de penitencia, que se perfila en todos los órdenes de actuación y convivencia del ser humano, en aras de conseguir el perdón y retornar a la gracia divina. En este trabajo se analizan los diferentes motivos que proyectan la ejemplaridad de la muerte en el ámbito de la literatura sapiencial: muerte física y muerte espiritual; trascendencia y sentencia del alma; el hecho maravilloso (milagros, premoniciones, relevaciones o visiones); el miedo (y lo macabro) ligado al arquetipo de la muerte transida y sus plasmaciones en variados tópicos (mement…
The Ancient Commentators of Plato and Aristotle
2009
In late antiquity the works of Plato and Aristotle were subject to intense study, which eventually led to the development of a new literary form, the philosophical commentary. Until recently these commentaries were understood chiefly as sources of information for the masters, Plato and Aristotle, they commented upon. However, in recent years, it has become increasingly acknowledged that the commentators themselves - Aspasius, Alexander, Themistius, Porphyry, Proclus, Philoponus, Simplicius and others - even though they worked in the Platonist-Aristotelian framework, contributed to this tradition in original, innovative and significant ways such that their commentaries are philosophically im…
