Hegel’s Non-Metaphysical Idea of Freedom

2016

the article explores the putatively non-metaphysical – non-voluntarist, and even non-causal – concept of freedom outlined in Hegel’s work and discusses its influential interpretation by robert Pippin as an ‘essentially practical’ concept. I argue that Hegel’s affirmation of freedom must be distinguished from that of Kant and Fichte, since it does not rely on a prior understanding of self-consciousness as an originally teleological relation and it has not the nature of a claim ‘from a practical point of view’.

Jean-Paul Sartre: dalla fenomenologia trascendentale all’ontologia fenomenologica

2022

Tra le numerose opere di Jean-Paul Sartre, la monografia del 1943 su “L’essere e il nulla” viene comunemente considerata lo scritto fondamentale del filosofo francese. Quest’opera risulta essere l’esplicazione, o la maturazione, della fenomenologia trascendentale assimilata da Sartre negli anni della sua giovinezza. Among the numerous works of Jean-Paul Sartre, the 1943 monograph on “Being and Nothingness” is commonly considered the French philosopher's fundamental writing. This work turns out to be the explication, or the maturation, of the transcendental phenomenology assimilated by Sartre in the years of his youth.

A walk on sunset boulevard

2016

A walk on sunset boulevard can teach us about transcendental functions associated to Feynman diagrams. On this guided tour we will see multiple polylogarithms, differential equations and elliptic curves. A highlight of the tour will be the generalisation of the polylogarithms to the elliptic setting and the all-order solution for the sunset integral in the equal mass case.

The Holocaust and the birth of Israel in British, Swedish and Finnish press discourse, 1947–1948

2009

This article examines the way in which the Holocaust was linked to the process of the birth of Israel between 1947 and 1948 in the mainstream British, Swedish and Finnish press. By utilising a framework of comparative cultural history, this essay seeks to understand why different countries responded to the suffering of the Jews during the Second World War in such diverse ways. This essay also seeks to question the popular belief that the two events were intimately linked, and that the link was recognised in a straightforward manner. Hence, the study argues that although the press coverage sometimes managed to establish the connection between the two events, more typically the news was domes…

<i>The Machine in the Garden</i> in the 21st Century

2017

In this essay I will suggest Leo Marx’s debt to a style of thinking about technology which cuts against the grain of the liberal humanism and liberal progressive ideology that informs his writing. This style of thinking, associated with the word technicity, underscores the intimacy of our relation to technology. The Machine in the Garden insists that technology is a crucial aspect of our human nature—it encourages us to see that nature is inseparable from our technological condition. In this sense, the machine and the garden are confounded in Marx’s book. The book’s key themes and conflicts short-circuit the mission to promote the liberal individualist illusion of escape from the shaping fo…

La metalògica en la crítica de la raó pura

1994

Aquest article comenta un text de la Crítica de la Raó Pura (B. 113-116) en què Kant fa referència a la doctrina clàssica dels transcendentals (Unum, Verum i Bonum). Es rebutja la interpretació de Torreti, que identifica l’Unum transcendental amb la unitat sintètica de l’apercepció, i es defensa una segona interpretació, segons la qual els transcendentals, en el tractament kantià, prefiguren les propietats centrals estudiades per la metalògica contemporània: consistència, decidibilitat i completesa.

Bakalaura darbā tiek analizēta cilvēka transcendences izpratne M. Šēlera filozofiskajā antropoloģijā un K. Rānera kristīgajā antropoloģijā. Darba gaitā parādīts atšķirīgais un kopīgais šo domātāju pieejā cilvēkam: viņu cilvēka tematizācijas fons un ietekmes, jautājuma par cilvēku uzdošanas konteksts, kā arī jautājuma par cilvēku saskares punkti.

Between “full moon and summer solstice”. The quest for transcendence in the poetry of Andrzej Busza

2019

The article is an attempt to describe the poet’s vision of human destiny, history and transcendence. Analysing poems from two poetry volumes I endeavour to present Busza’s philosophy. The poet notes and appreciates science and scientifi c achievements as well as civilisational development, although he realises that they may be dangerous for human spirituality and potentially lead to catastrophe.

Resting heart rate and cardiovascular outcomes in diabetic and non-diabetic individuals at high cardiovascular risk analysis from the ONTARGET/TRANSC…

2018

Abstract Aims Resting heart rate (RHR) has been shown to be associated with cardiovascular outcomes in various conditions. It is unknown whether different levels of RHR and different associations with cardiovascular outcomes occur in patients with or without diabetes, because the impact of autonomic neuropathy on vascular vulnerability might be stronger in diabetes. Methods and results We examined 30 937 patients aged 55 years or older with a history of or at high risk for cardiovascular disease and after myocardial infarction, stroke, or with proven peripheral vascular disease from the ONTARGET and TRANSCEND trials investigating ramipril, telmisartan, and their combination followed for a m…
