The Dialectic Between Strength and Weakness in Dostoevsky (1860-1864). Ideology as Key for the Interpretation
2013
Los estudios críticos de la obra de Dostoievski evitan relacionarla con su ideología. El presente trabajo parte del supuesto de que la confrontación de la obra literaria con la ideología del autor puede proporcionar algunas claves decisivas para la comprensión de conceptos compartidos por ambos campos. Se ha analizado las categorías de fortaleza y debilidad, como nódulos importantes en la malla conceptual-imaginativa. El trabajo se limita a un periodo esencial de la obra de Dostoievski, 1860-1864, puesto que hay un consenso generalizado en que es clave para la evolución de su obra madura. Critical studies of Dostoevsky’s work usually avoid relating it to ideology. This essay assumes that th…
Showing and Saying. An Aesthetic Difference
2013
Wittgenstein’s distinction between saying and showing and the associated thesis, what can be shown cannot be said, were crucial to his first philosophy, persisted throughout the evolution of his whole thought and played a key role in his views on aesthetics. The objective of art is access to the mystical, forcing us to become aware of the uniqueness of our own experience and life. When art is good is a perfect expression and the work of art becomes like a tautology. An important consequence of this understanding of art is the irreducibility of the aesthetic to the scientific perspective.
Emotional politics on Facebook. An exploratory study of Podemos’ discourse during the European election campaign 2014
2015
The results of the European elections 2014 in Spain were characterized by the outstanding rise of a new party, Podemos, which obtained five seats in the European Parliament, despite being founded few months before the elections. The present study analyzes both the content and the presence of emotions in Podemos’ discourse on Facebook during the European electoral campaign. In particular, the affective content of both the party’s discourse and the comments of its followers will be analyzed through a pragmatic linguistic approach applied to a corpus of 163 posts and 215 followers’ comments. Results show an insistence on positive emotions in the party’s discourse and a prevalence of negative e…
A única intuição – o único pensamento: Sobre a questão do sistema em Fichte e em Schopenhauer
2007
In this paper, the theme “intuition” and “thought” is related to the problem, virulent in the German Idealism, of the philosophical systematic. After the conception of system sustained by Kant in the “Architectonic of reason” was criticized as formalist, and, at the same time, the criticism on the rationalist systems, formerly exerted by the empiricism, developed in the 18th century, it emerged a methodological crisis in the philosophy at the end of that century, maybe expressed in the most intense way in one “fragment” written by Friedrich Schlegel: “It is equally mortal to the spirit to have a system and to have none”. Fichte and Schopenhauer deal with the system issue in the light of the…
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’.
Lo verosímil en la ética de Aristóteles: una aporía en el vocabulario filosófico griego
2007
While the mainstream of modern moral philosophy has always assumed that the characteristic situation in moral judgments should be the certitude, Aristotle’s moral philosophy is dominated by the idea of verisimilitude. As a matter of fact, its main concept, namely «virtue», is doubly permeated by this idea, both in its psychological and epistemological sides: we cannot know with certitude (only with verisimilitude) what is entailed by the adscription of a virtue (e.g. generosity), both generally and in a particular case. Nevertheless, verisimilitude is a good enough ground for action.<br><br>Mientras que la corriente principal de la filosofía moral moderna da por supuesto que la …
Closed Theories, Falsificationism and Non-Cumulative Progress
2020
It is argued that scientific progress occurs not with the cumulative growth of knowledge or when theories get closer to the truth but with discovering new domains and new theories that fit these domains. This horizontal view on the direction of scientific progress (in contrast to vertical, when we aim to get from here to the abstract and ephemeral truth) allows avoiding traditional objections posed by the incommensurability thesis and pessimistic induction, namely, that radical theory changes leave no room for progress. According to this perspective, the discovery of quantum mechanics as a new field of inquiry is a progress in itself, since this discovery had opened up a new distinctive dom…
La construcción de la instersubjetividad desde la hermenéutica trascendental
2017
En este artículo se busca reflexionar sobre cómo el diálogo es una poderosa herramienta para utilizar en aquellos programas educativos que deseen contribuir con la transformación de la sociedad. Es por ello, que se hace necesario vincular la hermenéutica a la praxis de las ciencias sociales. La hermenéutica puede brindar a las ciencias sociales una metodología de encuentro de perspectivas a través de la intersubjetividad. La intersubjetividad, establecida a través del diálogo, puede posibilitar espacios de acercamiento a la hora de construir un conocimiento colectivo en el ámbito educativo. La ética, también como disciplina filosófica, puede servir para fundamentar la praxis educativa orien…
Edward W. Said y la reflexión sobre Europa
2012
The aim of the following observations is simply to present a few suggestions derived from the study of the works of an admirable figure whose life was sadly cut short by serious illness. A non-European writer, the insights of Edward W. Said (Jerusalem, 1935—New York, 2003), provide us with an enriching testimony of diverse Eastern and the Western roots and traditions. Strictly speaking, he was forced to consider himself both Arab and Anglo-American from birth. His questioned identity and the permanent feeling of being it of place”, having lived away from his native land since childhood, caused him to feel deeply cut off from his roots and experience, a strange void in his life. This irremed…
¿Qué cultura debe reconocerse en la política multicultural?
2012
Los que se dicen liberales proponen muy diferentes soluciones a cómo pensar la gestión política de la pluralidad cultural en las sociedades contemporáneas. En este ensayo se pretende mostrar que esa diversidad de pareceres tiene, como uno de sus supuestos fundamentales, diferentes concepciones de la noción de cultura. Con tal fin, se expone críticamente la política del reconocimiento multicultural de Charles Taylor, utilizando para ello algunos aspectos de la identidad cultural según Clifford Geertz, Zygmund Bauman y Michael Ignatieff.
