Are Distinctions Between Genres Still Relevant?
1998
Why do readers — and especially literary critics — feel the need to classify works of art into categories which one often calls genres? On the one hand fashionable ideas lead some commentators to argue that, in this infinitely innovative world, genres have become irrelevant because traditional rules have been subverted. The ineffable text (sacralized in italics) is all that counts. Yet, on the other, their description of works of literature inevitably resorts to such terms as ‘fantasy’, ‘allegory’, ‘realism’, ‘tragedy’, even if they carefully place these in inverted commas. As the ‘reception’ school of criticism has convincingly shown, a novel, poem or play takes on its full meaning when it…
Del bene
2021
Del bene sembra che nel nostro tempo, segnato dal pluralismo etico e spesso dal nichilismo assiologico, non abbia alcun senso parlare. Di più: sembra che non se ne debba parlare per rispettare la libertà di tutti. Il testo presenta un’analisi fenomenologica del concetto di bene tesa a mostrare la vacuità di queste presupposizioni, ma anche i fattori di rischio per l’educazione contemporanea insiti in esse. Attraverso una ripresa dell’etica di E. Husserl e di alcuni dei suoi allievi, temi cruciali per una filosofia dell’educazione adeguata al nostro tempo sono allora: la differenza tra l’utile e il bene, il ruolo delle emozioni nella vita morale, il nesso tra desiderio, volontà e scelta, la …
"Lato" Tadeusza Rittnera. "Ostatnie dni starej Europy" i nowoczesny teatr uczuć
2021
This is a reassessment of the work of Tadeusz Rittner, a bilingual Polish/German writer and dramatist from Galicia who won much acclaim in the early decades of the last century. This article examines his narrative and dramatic strategies by focusing on his drama Lato (Summer), published in 1913. It is a story about a timid young man who, after hearing from his doctor that he will not live much longer, turns suddenly into a bold and shameless seducer. This could be the stuff of a conventional, farcical exposure of middle class hypocrisy, yet in Rittner’s drama it becomes a fascinating study, never far from Czekhov and Witkacy, tapping all the resources of realism, irony and grotesque to show…
Narzędzia kształtowania polskiej kultury muzycznej w dobie socrealizmu
2020
Realizm socjalistyczny, zwany prościej socrealizmem, to doktryna ideologiczno- estetyczna wspomagająca propagandę krajów komunistycznych. Jej korzenie sięgają Związku Radzieckiego, gdzie stanowiła jedyną słuszną metodę tworzenia sztuki od lat 30. XX wieku aż po kres mocarstwa, czyli rok 1991. Proces wprowadzania jedynej słusznej metody twórczej rozpoczęto w Polsce w 1949 roku. Władza organizowała zjazdy literatów, plastyków, architektów, filmowców, a także muzyków. Doktryna obowiązywała aż do 1956 roku (roku śmierci prezydenta Polski Ludowej Bolesława Bieruta), choć naciski zmalały wraz ze śmiercią Stalina w roku 1953. Władza komunistyczna dysponowała wieloma narzędziami mającymi skłonić ko…
Exploring Collective Action Dynamics in Online Communities from a Critical Realist Perspective
2016
Scholars have been increasingly studying Online Communities (OCs) for a variety of purposes, focusing on issues like individual motivation, knowledge sharing, and governance structure. Few studies focused on the entanglement among technology, people, and organizational structures that support working dynamics within OCs. This paper addresses this issue by exploring causal mechanisms sustaining the collective actions of OCs through a retroduction process. Based on the study of the OC of an Italian political movement, the Five Star Movement, the concept of affordance is involved to describe the generative mechanisms and new affordances are identified on collective action within OCs. Our work …

How (Not) to Write the History of Pragmatist Philosophy of Science?
2008
This survey article discusses the pragmatist tradition in twentieth century philosophy of science. Pragmatism, originating with Charles Peirce's writings on the pragmatic maxim in the 1870s, is a background both for scientific realism and, via the views of William James and John Dewey, for the relativist and/or constructivist forms of neopragmatism that have often been seen as challenging the very ideas of scientific rationality and objectivity. The paper shows how the issue of realism arises in pragmatist philosophy of science and how some pragmatists, classical and modern, have attempted to deal with it. Various dimensions of the realism dispute are thus discussed, especially realism as c…
Pragmatist Perspectives on Theological and Religious Realism
2014
This essay first applies the general issue of realism vs. antirealism to theology and the philosophy of religion, distinguishing between several different ‘levels’ of the realism dispute in this context. A pragmatic approach to the problem of realism regarding religion and theology is sketched and tentatively defended. The similarities and differences of scientific realism, on the one hand, and religious and/or theological realism, on the other hand, are thereby also illuminated. The concept of recognition is shown to be crucially relevant to the issue of realism especially in its pragmatist articulation.

El método iconológico y el paranoico-crítico
1991
SE ESTABLECE UNA LIGAZON QUE UNIRIA EN ORDEN CRONOLOGICO A SIGMUND FREUD, FUNDADOR DEL PSICOANALISIS, CON ABY WARBURG, PADRE DEL METODO ICONOLOGICO, Y A ESTE CON SALVADOR DALI, INVENTOR DEL METODO PARANOICO-CRITICO. TODOS ELLOS COMPARTEN LA IDEA DE QUE LA VIDA CONSCIENTE ESTA CONDICIONADA POR EL INCONSCIENTE, Y LA IMPORTANCIA DE LOS SUEÑOS. SIN EMBARGO, PESE A TENER UNA MISMA RAIZ, EL METODO ICONOLOGICO HA RECIBIDO EL RECONOCIMIENTO ACADEMICO; MIENTRAS QUE DEL PARANOICO SOLO SE HA DESTACADO SU VALOR POETICO. FINALMENTE, SE CUESTIONA ESTA RADICAL CONSIDERACION SEGUN LA EVOLUCION DE ESTOS METODOS. (A.B.C./ L.A.G.)
