A metaphysics of being as creation. Juan David García Bacca reads Alfred North Whitehead
2017
RESUMEN Al considerar el tratamiento que realiza Juan David García Bacca de Process and Reality de Alfred North Whitehead, el articulo busca apreciar la afinidad entre ambos autores en su caracterización de las deficiencias de la ontología clásica y en su invención de conceptos para un nuevo enfoque de la ontología; a saber, una metafísica de la creación y la novedad. ABSTRACT By exploring Juan David García Bacca’s analysis of Process and Reality by Alfred North Whitehead, the article examines the affinity of the authors with respect to their characterization of the deficiencies of classical ontology and their invention of concepts for a new approach to ontology, that is, a metaphysics of c…

La questione del soprasensibile nella Preisschrift sui progressi della metafisica di Immanuel Kant
2011
Questo saggio intende mettere in evidenza, a partire da una lettura della Preisschrift über die Fortschritte der Metaphysik, il senso architettonico che la metafisica assume in Kant: la metafisica non lega la sua prestazione più eminente al possesso dogmatico di un dominio, sia esso quello teoretico degli oggetti della natura o anche quello pratico degli oggetti della morale, ma alla possibilità di illuminare la strada per il passaggio dall'uno all'altro ambito del conoscere, in una prospettiva critica che, se da un lato mette in rilievo i pericoli insiti negli eccessi dogmatici della ragione, dall'altro ricusa tuttavia l'idea di una metafisica del soprasensibile concepita sotto il segno di…
Translational transitions: “Translation proper” and translation studies in the humanities
2009
The increasing use of “translation” in the humanities during the past few years has brought about a broader variety of perspectives on translation than previously allowed for by modernist and positivist approaches. For centuries, attempts to control meaning and the metaphysical idea of translation which extended this desire for control beyond linguistic boundaries have resulted in a concept of translation which, since the second half of the eighteenth century, has progressively added to the constraints faced by both translators and translation theorists. The fact that now their “master word” is being celebrated by other disciplines is understandably being welcomed with enthusiasm by scholar…
System and flexibility in law
1991
Usually, rhetoric is supposed to provide a model of law which describes legal interactions as volitive, arbitrary, and void of any system. However, the Mainz School, founded by Theodor Viehweg, proves the contrary: without referring to any metaphysics, such as consensus or auditoire universel, it seeks to discover the systematic character and the more or less flexible structures of legal rhetoric.

A INVESTIGAÇÃO NARRATIVA EM EDUCAÇÃO FÍSICA E ESPORTE: QUE É E QUAL A SUA UTILIDADE
2011
Narrative inquiry is a burgeoning form of research in social sciences that has received little attention in physical education and sport sciences. In this article, we seek to balance this situation by offering an understanding of what narrative inquiry can be and can offer to our field. In order to gain some theoretical purchase on a difficult field, we first define narrative. Next, a distillation of guiding assumptions and characteristics are offered. Finally, some reasons as to why narratives may be of benefit for the field of physical education and sport. In conclusion, we consider narrative inquiry as a useful, although problematic, way of theorizing and doing research in the domains of…
Runology and historical sociolinguistics: On runic writing and its social history in the first millennium
2015
AbstractThis paper argues that the rise and the transmission of the runes is largely determined by sociolinguistic factors. First, the olderfuþarkis identified as a unique Germanic design, adapted from Latin or Greek sources by one or more well-born Germani to mark group identity and status. Hence it is rather unlikely that the search for an exact source alphabet of the olderfuþarkwill make a major breakthrough in future research. Second, the present author argues that the extension of thefuþarkin the Anglo-Frisian setting is due to high-scale contact with the Christian Church, including Latin manuscript culture and Classical grammatical schooling, whereas these factors were almost entirely…
