Epistemic Aspects of Action Systems

2015

The theory of action conventionally distinguishes real actions and doxastic (or epistemic) actions. Real actions (or as we put it—praxeological actions) bring about changes in material objects of the environment external to the agent. Epistemic actions concern mental states of agents—they bring about changes of agents’ knowledge or beliefs about the environment as well as about other beliefs. Some logical issues concerning knowledge, action, truth, and the epistemic status of agents are discussed. In this context the frame and ramification problems are also analyzed. The key issue raised in this chapter is that of non-monotonicity of reasoning. A reasoning is non-monotonic if some conclusio…

De la historia a la histeria. 'Las teorías salvajes' de Pola Oloixarac

2016

Resumen Pola Oloixarac se presenta como paradigma de un nuevo escenario historico y epistemologico en la concepcion, escritura y lectura de la literatura argentina actual. Asi en en este articulo hacemos un recorrido de la "historia" a la "histeria" de su ficcion: desde el analisis de la historia reciente argentina, hasta la construccion y recepcion de la (auto)figuracion de la autora. Al mismo tiempo abordamos la pugna critica entre fuerzas de tasacion literaria que oscilan entre la promocion mercadotecnica y el aval de la doxa academica, y que tienen como eje central la imagen espectacularizada y la marca construida de y por Pola Oloixarac. Pola Oloixarac is presented as a paradigm of a n…

"Mais... je ne visite pas!". Une approche ethnographique de l'usage faible des œuvres

2013

Some photographic exhibitions are nowadays set outdoors in order to popularize art. Through a case study, this article examines the "weak use of images" as it is practised in public places, by passers-by who do not identify art pieces as such, and do not consider themselves as visitors. Their relation to art pieces, in this context, is built on an apparent paradox (they relate and at the same time do not relate to the pieces), and constitutes the minor mode of situations and observed interactions (this relation does not organise or structure the latter).

Constructing relational space in early childhood education

2014

This paper examines early childhood education (ECE) by applying and developing relational-spatial perspectives on everyday life in educational institutions for young children. The aim is to investigate the dynamic process of construction of space and to illustrate with selected empirical episodes how this process occurs in ECE. Drawing on authors such as Soja and Bourdieu, the starting point for the analysis is that space is socially produced in everyday interactions in a process that intertwines the physical environment and concrete objects, personal interpretations of physical and cultural space, and cultural and collective views about space in ECE. We illustrate this process with ethnogr…

The Influence of All-Night Exposure to Pulsed Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields on Human Sleep. Der Einfluss kontinuierlicher nachtlicher Exposit…

2005

Question of the study The widespread use of mobile telephones has led to public discussion about the putative health hazards as well as scientific interest in the interactions of pulsed, high-frequency electromagnetic fields with physiological systems. This article presents a survey of three consecutive studies carried out by a research group at the University of Mainz.

Zur Frage humoraler Kollagen-Begleitkomponenten beim Pseudoxanthoma elasticum

1968

Bei einer 24jahrigen Kranken mit Pseudoxanthoma exsudativum werden bei eingehender, vor allem auch laboratoriumsmasiger Durchuntersuchung eine Herabsetzung der Hydroxyprolin-Ausscheidung und eine Vermehrung der Mucopolysaccharid-Ausscheidung im Urin festgestellt. Diese beiden Befunde entsprechen Ergebnissen, wie man sie nach vorangehenden eigenen Untersuchungen auch bei diffusen Bindegewebskrankheiten bzw. speziell bei progressiver Sklerodermie findet. Diese Resultate konnen somit als humoral fasbare Kollagen-Begleitkomponenten bei diesem Leiden gelten. Unter diesem Gesichtspunkt ware das Pseudoxanthoma elasticum mithin nicht nur eine systematisierte Elastose, sondern eher eine Kollagenoela…

Data from: Phylogenomics of Lophotrochozoa with consideration of systematic error

2021

Phylogenomic studies have improved understanding of deep metazoan phylogeny and show promise for resolving incongruences among analyses based on limited numbers of loci. One region of the animal tree that has been especially difficult to resolve, even with phylogenomic approaches, is relationships within Lophotrochozoa (the animal clade that includes molluscs, annelids, and flatworms among others). Lack of resolution in phylogenomic analyses could be due to insufficient phylogenetic signal, limitations in taxon and/or gene sampling, or systematic error. Here, we investigated why lophotrochozoan phylogeny has been such a difficult question to answer by identifying and reducing sources of sys…

Analytical Rhetoric, Semiotic and Law

1987

In one of his lessons on rhetoric in Basle at about 1874 Friedrich Nietzsche stated: “Language is rhetoric, because it desires to convey only a doxa (opinion), not an episteme (knowledge)”.2 What does he say?
