CFP: Neo-Kantianism and Husserlian Phenomenology Colloquium – Santiago de Chile (November 17-18, 2016)
Neo-Kantianism and Husserlian Phenomenology Colloquium November 17-18, 2016 Universidad Alberto Hurtado / Universidad Diego Portales Santiago de Chile Call for Papers Recently different scholars have studied Husserlian phenomenology with regard to its interlocutors. The relation between Husserl and the neo-Kantians has been of particular interest in this context, since the dialogue and correspondence between Husserl and the representatives of the Marburg School and the Baden School constituted one of the most relevant philosophical scenarios for the formation and definition of the phenomenological movement. Beyond their historical coincidence, neo-Kantians and Husserl shared common systematic stances regarding the theory of knowledge, logic, history and psychology. This colloquium aims at presenting and discussing the…

We are glad to announce a Call for Paper for the philosophical magazine Il Pensare on the topic “Hegel: between ‘Logic’ and ‘History’” (2016). The Call is entirely dedicated to Hegel’s thought for the bicentenary of the publication of the third and final volume of Science of Logic. The intention is to emphasise the importance of logic and history in this specific Author because of his unquestionable theoretical relevance, in order to analyse the relationship between “unity” and “plurality” as the philosophical concepts. Those who are willing to partecipate at the project are free to choose the argument, with the only condition that it fits within the theoretical framework of the following themes:…

The book offers a guiding thread for the reconstruction of crucial motifs of contemporary thought such as the socio-ontological paradigm; the action-theoretical model in moral and social philosophy; the question of naturalism; and the reassessment of the relevance of work and power for…

We are glad to announce that the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven has organized a conference addressing the issue of “Kant’s A-Deduction”.

Dyck (Western Ontario) Giuseppe Motta (Graz) Alexandra Newton (Illinois) The Institute of Philosophy at KU Leuven invites submissions for a conference dedicated to Kant’s A-Deduction.

We are glad to announce that the North American Schelling Society (NASS) has organized its fifth annual meeting around the issue “Schelling: Crisis and Critique”. The event will be held in Mexico City on February 21th-25th. *** Schelling emphasizes the connection between the critical method and the notion of crisis as separation, decision, and judgment. He realizes that crisis is constitutive of the critical enterprise and of philosophy in general. It is perhaps no coincidence that Schelling also recognized the profound crisis of the idealist project that he had grounded and sought to find new philosophical approaches that would respond to the crisis of rational science. The aim…

We are pleased to announce the Call for Papers for the workshop “Models of human and divine intellect in Kant and Hegel: Intersections between Transcendental Philosophy and Rational Theology”, which will take place from the 16th to 18th of February 2017 at the University of Tübingen. The workshop aims to compare Kant’s and Hegel’s models of human and divine intellect. It departs from the hypothesis that their respective accounts of the ‘transcendental’ and ‘metaphysical’ deductions correlate with their conceptions of finite and infinite knowledge, modelled as human and divine intellect. The workshop will thus explore the systematic role assigned to concepts from traditional rational theology within the projects of transcendental logic and ontology.…

NEW BOOK: Giovanna Miolli, “Il pensiero della cosa. Wahrheit hegeliana e Identity Theory of Truth”, Verifiche, Trento 2016
Segnaliamo l’uscita del nuovo libro di Giovanna Miolli, Il pensiero della cosa. Wahrheit hegeliana e Identity Theory of Truth, edito da Verifiche (Trento, 2016). Dalla quarta di copertina: È possibile connettere la concezione hegeliana della verità con alcune teorie filosofiche a noi contemporanee? Il presente lavoro esplora gli aspetti più rilevanti della concezione hegeliana della verità attraverso la ‘lente’ del confronto con quella che oggi viene chiamata identity theory of truth. Tale confronto si articola intorno ad alcune nozioni chiave: ‘pensiero’, ‘contenuto di pensiero’, ‘giudizio’, ‘contenuto del giudizio’, ‘realtà’ e ‘identità’. Lo scopo che viene perseguito non è una traduzione della filosofia di Hegel dentro schemi, categorie e linguaggi…

New Book: Gianluca Garelli, “La questione della bellezza. Dialettica e storia di un’idea filosofica”
Segnaliamo l’uscita dell’ultimo libro di Gianluca Garelli La questione della bellezza. Dialettica e storia di un’idea filosofica (Einaudi, 2016). … Dalla poesia epica e lirica della Grecia arcaica a Platone, da Kant a Hegel, dal materialismo dialettico a Adorno, le varie forme che la dialettica del bello ha assunto nel corso del pensiero occidentale sembrano disegnare una costellazione che continua a sollecitare chi la contempla, anche in prospettiva non strettamente filosofica. Pensiamo ai gesti provocatori di molta arte contemporanea, o al nostro controverso rapporto con l’idea di «natura»; ma anche a mentalità e ideologie che sembrano oggi pervadere ogni aspetto del mondo globalizzato, costruendo le identità simboliche collettive e insinuandosi…

Siamo felici di annunciare la pubblicazione del volume di Alfredo Ferrarin, Il pensare e l’io. Hegel e la critica di Kant (Carocci, 2016). *** Il libro di Ferrarin va a coprire quella che era forse una delle lacune più gravi della letteratura su Hegel, ovvero l’assenza di una trattazione chiara, completa ed esaustiva di cosa sia, di quale ruolo assuma e di quali funzioni svolga la nozione di pensiero nella filosofia hegeliana. Come ogni lettore delle opere di Hegel sa, pensiero si dice in molti modi, difficilmente riconducibili a una determinazione univoca e stabile; forse per questo gli interpreti si sono sempre concetrati solo sulle sue manifestazioni puntuali…

We are glad to share the text of Daniele Bertoletti’s book review of Filosofia della biologia (A. Borghini and E. Casetta (eds.), Carocci, Roma 2013), published in «Verifiche», XLIII (2014), N. 1-4, pp. 179-188. *** ANDREA BORGHINI, ELENA CASETTA , Filosofia della biologia, Carocci, Milano 2013, 307 pages, ISBN 978-88-430-6951-4. The idea behind the newly-published volume Filosofia della biologia, by Andrea Borghini and Elena Casetta, is that the fundamental concepts used by science remain unfulfilled in the sphere of scientific practice, which, from their viewpoint, implies the necessity to resort to philosophy. The authors appear to imply the above-mentioned position, as they take an interest in those notions determining the field…

We are glad to announce that a conference on Kant, Rights, and the State will be held at Merton College (University of Oxford) on September 24-25, 2016. *** Kant’s Doctrine of Right has been paid relatively little attention in philosophical literature. However, interest in Kant’s political thought has been growing in recent years, and numerous Kantian answers to problems in contemporary political philosophy have been offered. Nevertheless, literature is still in a nascent stage of development. This conference will contribute to the renewed interest in Kant’s political philosophy by turning scholarly attention to the Doctrine of Right. The papers presented will focus in particular on the themes of ‘rights’ and ‘the state.’ Both themes lie…

Orthodoxy has it that a proposition is an abstract entity, existing independently of any mental or linguistic act, intrinsically possessing truth-conditions, and therefore susceptible of truth or falsity. It is also widely held that these entities can be the objects not only of cognitive attitudes, such as belief and knowledge, but also of conative ones, such as desire and intention…

We are glad to inform that the International Conference “Continental and Analytic Kantianism. The Legacy of Kant in Meillassoux’s and Sellars’ Realism” will be held at the University College Dublin on June 15th-17th, 2016. The contemporary interest in realism and naturalism in continental philosophy, under the banner of ‘speculative’ or ‘new’ realism, has recently led a number of continentally-trained philosophers to approach texts from the canon of analytic philosophy, where the debates on these topics (and their dialectic with anti-realism) has a decades-long history. This has been particularly evident in the unprecedented way in which the philosophy of Wilfrid Sellars has been object of a rediscovery: a unique stance…

New Book: R. Zambrana, “Hegel’s Theory of Intelligibility” (University of Chicago Press, 2015)
We are glad to announce that Rocìo Zambrana’s book Hegel’s Theory of Intelligibility (University of Chicago Press, 2015) is out. The book is an assessment of Hegel’s Science of Logic aimed at overcoming the divisions that have animated contemporary critics, namely dividing them between “post-Kantian” (Robert Pippin) and strictly ontological (Stephen Houlgate) readers. The book takes its move from Pippin’s intuition that the Logic (and Hegel’s philosophy in general) “seems to inherit the ‘apperception theme’ in Kant” (p. 8), in opposition to straightforward “ontological” readings of the Logic. The author aims though at radicalising Pippin’s undertaking of Hegel, by suggesting a new interpretation of the notion of Wirklichkeit (Actuality) in the…

New Book: S. Hermann-Sinai, L. Ziglioli (eds.), “Hegel’s Philosophical Psychology” (Routledge, 2016)
We are glad to announce that a new collection of articles on Hegel’s Psychology has lately been published by Routledge thanks to the editing work made by Susanne Hermann-Sinai and Lucia Ziglioli. Hegel’s Philosophical Psychology draws attention to a largely overlooked piece of Hegel’s philosophy: his substantial and philosophically rich treatment of psychology at the end of the Philosophy of Subjective Spirit, which itself belongs to his main work, the Encyclopaedia of the Philosophical Sciences. This volume makes the case that Hegel’s approach to philosophy of mind as developed within this text can make an important contribution to current discussions about mind and subjectivity, and can help clarify…

New Book: “Filosofia classica tedesca: le parole chiave”, a cura di L. Illetterati e P. Giuspoli
Segnaliamo l’uscita del nuovo libro Filosofia classica tedesca: le parole chiave, a cura di L. Illetterati e P. Giuspoli (Carocci, 2016). Dalla quarta di copertina: Il dibattito filosofico e scientifico che si sviluppa in Germania a partire dal criticismo kantiano costituisce uno snodo decisivo nel passaggio dall’orizzonte del pensiero moderno a quello della contemporaneità. Nell’arco di alcuni decenni, dalla pubblicazione della Critica della ragion pura di Kant alle opere del tardo Schelling, passando attraverso le elaborazioni concettuali di Fichte e di Hegel e di altri autori decisivi nello sviluppo di una nuova sensibilità filosofica, alcune parole chiave della filosofia moderna subiscono una radicale torsione e rideterminazione. Ragione, sistema, scienza, idealismo,…

Martedì 24 Maggio 2016, all’interno del seminario “Temi e problemi della filosofia classica tedesca”, organizzato dal Corso di Dottorato in Filosofia dell’Università di Padova, il Prof. Luca Illetterati presenterà una relazione dal titolo La “Dringende Erinnerung” come forma propria della “Menschlichkeit”. Di seguito l’abstract dell’intervento: Nel paragrafo §2 dell’Enciclopedia delle Scienze Filosofiche, Hegel scrive che “l’uomo si distingue dagli animali per il pensiero”. Da ciò segue, secondo Hegel, che tutto ciò che è umano è “reso effettuale” tramite il pensiero. Dietro questo vecchio pregiudizio, diventato espressione di un luogo comune banale, si nasconde una concezione specifica del soggetto umano. Il pensiero è in realtà quella dimensione che appartiene all’uomo e…

Martedì 10 Maggio 2016, all’interno del seminario “Temi e problemi della filosofia classica tedesca”, organizzato dal Corso di Dottorato in Filosofia dell’Università di Padova, Pierpaolo Cesaroni presenterà una relazione dal titolo: “Il concetto e la vita. Canguilhem in dialogo con Hegel”. Abstract: I riferimenti di Georges Canguilhem a Hegel sono limitati, ma significativi: di particolare rilievo è soprattutto il riferimento al filosofo tedesco presente nel saggio Il concetto e la vita (1966). La relazione non intende ricostruire l’interpretazione di Hegel offerta da Canguilhem (che non esiste), ma interrogarsi sul modo in cui il pensiero di Canguilhem, interrogandosi sul rapporto fra il concetto e la vita, incontra la riflessione hegeliana. L’intervento si concentrerà su…

Mercoledì 26 Aprile 2016, all’interno del seminario “Temi e problemi della filosofia classica tedesca”, organizzato dal Corso di Dottorato in Filosofia dell’Università di Padova, Eleonora Cugini presenterà una relazione dal titolo: “La vita, ovvero le disavventure della Wirklichkeit. Un percorso tra natura, libertà e alienazione nella Critica del Giudizio di Kant e nella Dottrina dell’Essenza di Hegel”. Abstract Parlare della vita in Hegel significa cercare una relazione tra la natura e la libertà. Questo intreccio di problemi si muove su un piano di ordine metafisico e ontologico ma allo stesso tempo su un piano pratico. Anzi – questa la tesi che verrà proposta – l’impostazione hegeliana mostra proprio come sia il modo in cui viene…

Hegel (Orthotes Editrice, 2015). *** Nel 1907 Hermann Nohl, allora assistente di Wilhelm Dilthey, pubblicò un libro del quale non era l’autore, ma che lo rese ben più famoso dei lavori che andò successivamente scrivendo e pubblicando. Il libro raccoglieva infatti una serie di testi di Hegel risalenti al periodo giovanile, che il filosofo di Stoccarda non aveva mai pubblicato e che gettavano uno sguardo nuovo e interessante sulla sua filosofia, in particolare sulla sua genesi e sulle motivazioni profonde da cui essa, a…

Abstract Può il pensiero assumere per oggetto qualcosa di talmente ampio e complesso come la vita? Non sarebbe, questa, una vana pretesa destinata a fallire? Per comprendere la vita, il pensiero non dovrebbe decifrarla in base a leggi universali e necessarie, costringerla entro coordinate e costanti di senso, riducendone così il carattere imprevedibile e inesauribile? E inoltre, nello sforzo di pensare la vita, non si correrebbe il pericolo di estraniarsi dalla vita stessa?…

Organization: Julia Peters, Ulrich Schlösser This year’s summer school is devoted to questions revolving around the relation between freedom and human nature in Kant, Fichte and Hegel. We start from the observation that in the 1790s, Kant is increasingly concerned with defining and analysing anthropological conditions for free, autonomous action. This raises the question of whether there is – as some commentators have suggested – a tension between Kant’s a…

New release: N. Hebing, “Hegels Ästhetik des Komischen”, Meiner, Hamburg 2015 (with Intro).
We are pleased to announce the new release of Niklas Hebing’s “Hegels Ästhetik des Komischen”, (Hegel-Studien Beiheft), Meiner, 2015. Below you will find a short abstract of the book. The Introduction can be downloaded by clicking here. ABSTRACT This is the first critical survey to address Hegel’s theory of comedy, satire, and humor in a systematic way, situating them within Hegel’s philosophical system. The book shows how Hegel’s global reconstruction of the history of art cannot be understood without taking into account the essence and function of the comic forms. In fact, the scope of “das Komischen” in its purest form is for Hegel the self-understanding of modern subjectivity.…

CFP: “Fichte en el Laberinto del Idealismo” (Buenos Aires, September 14-16, 2016)
We are pleased to announce that a call for papers has been opened for the fourth International Congress of the Latin American Fichte Society (ALEF). The event will be held in Buenos Aires from 14th to 16th September, under the title of “Fichte en el Laberinto del Idealismo”. *** Although the Doctrine of Science can be characterized as “idealism”, such a characterization would be for his author, Fichte, insufficient. Indeed, concerning his philosophy and the systems of his contemporaries, Fichte never speaks of “idealism” without giving any specification, but always adds some precision: transcendent, dogmatic, critical, critical-transcendental, practical, quantitative, qualitative. In the particular case of the Doctrine of…

Martedì 23 febbraio 2016, all’interno del seminario “Temi e problemi della filosofia classica tedesca”, organizzato dal Corso di Dottorato in Filosofia dell’Università di Padova, Alessandro Esposito e Luca Illetterati presenteranno una relazione dal titolo: “Prolegomeni al pensare la vita. L’intelletto e la legge nella Fenomenologia dello spirito di Hegel“. Abstract Una riflessione che si ponga come obiettivo quello di “pensare la vita” deve necessariamente interrogarsi riguardo al carattere specifico di questo “pensare”. Esso rimanda infatti con forza alla discussione riguardante le modalità di comprensione e di pensabilità del mondo esterno da parte del soggetto finito, in una dimensione che è intellettiva e interna al soggetto stesso. In questo senso, tale discorso non può fare a meno di un confronto deciso…

Materials: Sandra Palermo, “Il bisogno della filosofia” (Mimesis, Milano 2011). Introduction
Siamo lieti di pubblicare l’Introduzione del volume “Il bisogno della filosofia. L’itinerario speculativo di Hegel tra Francoforte e Jena (1797-1803)” di Sandra Viviana Palermo. Dalla quarta di copertina: L’idea hegeliana di filosofia si forma tra Francoforte e Jena. Nel periodo francofortese, Hegel muove dall’esigenza di superamento del dualismo kantiano e mira all’affermazione di un’unità assoluta che includa in sé le opposizioni dell’intelletto. Questa esigenza lo induce ad una crescente attenzione per i momenti della molteplicità e dell’opposizione e culmina, a Jena, nell’affermazione che l’Assoluto è «l’identità dell’identità e della non-identità». In questo itinerario, attentamente ricostruito nel libro, i testi francofortesi e gli scritti dei primi anni di Jena costituiscono un…

We are proud to announce the publication of the book: Passato senza tempo. Tempo, storia e memoria nella Fenomenologia dello Spirito di Hegel by Dott. Guido Frilli, published by Verifiche. The book investigates the meaning of time and history in Hegel’s pre-systematic philosophy. Although the analysis is particularly focused on the Phenomenology of Spirit, Frilli deals with some of the main topics of Hegel’s late Jena period, such as the circularity of dialectic, the relation between the past and the concept of time, and the role of memory. Frilli concludes his work by demostrating that the notion of time, as it emerges from the Phenomenology of Spirit, plays a crucial role in the systematic account of…

We are pleased to announce the publication of the book Hegel e la fenomenologia trascendentale edited by Danilo Manca, Elisa Magrì, and Alfredo Ferrarin and published by ETS Edizioni. The volume engages a dialogue between Hegel’s philosophy and the phenomenological tradition, a dialogue whose fruitfulness has been to a great extent curiously overlooked. Some of the thematic issues the contributions focus on are: the (post-kantian) problem of the synthesis (A. Altobrando, D. De Santis), pre-discursive knowing (L. Filieri, E. Magrì, A. Ferrarin), the conception of philosophy as a scientific and apodictic knowledge (L. Illetterati, D. Manca), the relation between phenomenology and ontology (F. Orsini, G. Zanotti), the nature of negation…

We are pleased to announce that a call for papers has been opened for a conference dedicated to the topic Mind and Nature. The event will be held at the University of Ottawa on April 08-10, 2016. *** The relation between mind and nature is one of the oldest questions in philosophy. Already in Plato’s Phaedo, we find Socrates praising Anaxagoras for having introduced nous (mind) into the explanation of nature, but criticizing him for not having made sufficient use of this principle. Turning to the modern day, we see a wide variety of questions surrounding this relation: Is a naturalistic account of mind possible? Would such an…

We are pleased to announce the International Conference: “From Marx to Hegel and Back to the Future”, which will be held at the Goethe-Institut of Stockholm, on February 25-27, 2016. *** In the face of the global financial crisis, growing social inequalities, and a resurrection of political struggles and social movements, we have witnessed a wide-ranging revival of interest in Marxist thought. But to which Marx should we return? Our suggestion is the: Hegelian Marx. Hegel’s social and political philosophy, with its focus on recognition, desire, alienation, social freedom, and its critique of liberalism, was crucial to Marx. In an attempt to explore and revitalize the Hegelian foundations…

The event will be held at the University of Massachusetts Amherst on April 23, 2016. *** It has been more than a decade since Bruno Latour asked whether ‘critique has run out of steam’–whether the ubiquity of ‘being critical’ has not rendered ‘critique’ redundant. Admittedly, critique is often spoken of in university discourse as though its meaning were self-evident, though its concept is not made explicit. The persistence of critique in its various forms nevertheless indicates…

The event will be held by the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin on June 27-28, 2016. *** In Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason, human knowledge appears as the end result of a plurality of cognitive activities. Perception, synthesis, intuition, thought, and judgment are only some of the cognitive activities involved in human knowledge. In contemporary epistemology, such cognitive activities have often been understood as involving normative aspects, the spontaneous activity of conscious cognitive subjects and the active following of rules. However,…

We are glad to announce that a call for papers has been opened for the postgraduate workshop on Perceptual Experience in Kant and German Idealism, which will be held by the University of Warwick on March 18, 2016. *** In contemporary philosophy of Mind and epistemology, accounts of perceptual experience, which take as their starting point insights from Kant as well as Hegel, have played an important role. Notably, McDowell explicitly identifies Kant’s account of perceptual experience, developed in the first Critique, as an inspiration for his own account. But, arguably, his account also bears resemblance to that of Hegel. Given this resurgence of interest in the accounts…

We are glad to announce that on Friday, October 30th, Prof. Dr. Marcus Willaschek (Frankfurt) will give a talk at the University of Amsterdam, entitled: “Kantian Autonomy without Self-Legislation of the Moral Law“. Here is an abstract of the presentation: Kantian autonomy is typically understood as self-legislation of the moral law. Whether ‘self-legislation’ is understood in a constructivist sense, as ‘creating’ the moral law, or in a realist sense, as the moral law’s being ‘rooted in the nature of practical reason’, interpreters generally agree that Kant holds that the moral law is self-legislated. This raises various thorny problems that have been the subject of intense discussion in the literature.…

It is no secret that at the heart of Kant’s Critical philosophy is a sophisticated account of the nature, conditions, and limits of cognition (Erkenntnis), one of Kant’s most oft-used terms.

In spite of this increase of interest, however, one of the key concerns of romanticism and idealism remains largely overlooked. The idea…

New book: “«Nel dolore del vivente». Il superamento del principio di non-contraddizione nella dialettica di Hegel” di Adalberto Coltelluccio
Segnaliamo l’uscita del nuovo libro di Adalberto Coltelluccio dal titolo «Nel dolore del vivente». Il superamento del principio di non-contraddizione nella dialettica di Hegel (Aracne). Dalla quarta di copertina: Dai frammenti giovanili, fino ai Lineamenti di filosofia del diritto, passando per la Fenomenologia dello spirito e la Scienza della logica, la contraddizione è stata una nozione fondamentale nella dialettica hegeliana. Nel corso della sua elaborazione, l’iniziale molteplicità di significati — prevalentemente etico-teologici — del periodo francofortese è andata sempre più definendosi, dopo Jena, in senso logico-filosofico, pur conservando una essenziale ambiguità semantica, segno necessario della speculatività che la parola filosofica deve avere per Hegel.

Temi e problemi della filosofia hegeliana: Paolo Giuspoli, “Ma quale realismo?” (Padova, 24 febbraio 2015)
Martedì 24 febbraio 2015, all’interno del seminario “Temi e problemi della filosofia hegeliana”, organizzato dalla Scuola di dottorato in Filosofia dell’Università di Padova, Paolo Giuspoli interverrà con una relazione dal titolo “Ma quale realismo?“.

The University of Kentucky (Lexington, United States) has opened a call for papers for the 18th Annual University of Kentucky Graduate Student Conference, which will be devoted to the following topic: “The Good Society”. Here the text of the call: “Humanity’s social nature presents us with a problem. While people need society to achieve full human flourishing, society is often a place in which people find their freedom constricted. It is not always clear how to reconcile our need for community with our need for individual freedom. Thus, we are faced with the problem of creating a good society that promotes the flourishing and freedom of everyone. In this…

Metodo. International Studies in Phenomenology and Philosophy is glad to announce a call for papers on the topic: “Supervenience and the theory of experience. Assessing the explanatory and descriptive power of a formal concept.” Over the last decades, the concept of supervenience has gained increasing attention in several fields of philosophy.

Particularly, the focus of this thematic issue of Metodo will be the applicability of supervenience to concrete experiential phenomena. Editors: Michela Summa & Pietro Giuffida.

We are pleased to announce that on Friday, December 12th, Moreno Rocchi (La Sapienza, Università di Roma) will present a paper on Kant at the German Philosophy Workshop at the University of Chicago. The title of the paper is “Formal Intuition and Transcendental Method in Kant”. Below is the abstract of the paper In a footnote of the first Critique Kant introduces the distinction between “form of intuition” and “formal intuition” of space, which has given rise to endless commentary. In this paper, I argue that this distinction represents only a momentary stage of the Kantian process of philosophical reflection. I further argue that the representation of…

The recordings of Richard Dien Winfield’s lectures on Hegel’s Science of Logic are freely available online. Prof. Winfield held these lectures in his 2009 Spring term Hegel class, at the University of Georgia. The transcriptions of the thirty lectures, which take into account Hegel’s Science of Logic in its entirety, gave rise to a book, published in 2012 by Rowman&Littlefield Publishers. Winfield’s “non-foundationalist” reading of Hegel :Together with William Maker, Richard Dien Winfield is one of the major advocates of a ‘non-foundationalist’, yet systematic interpretation of Hegel’s philosophy. On the one hand, freedom from foundations would be the aspect of Hegel’s thought that makes it alternative to both ontology and epistemology. On…

We are pleased to share on Padua@research an article by Alberto Vanzo, entitled Kant on Experiment (Chapter 7 of Rationis Defensor: Essays in Honour of Colin Cheyne, ed. James Maclaurin (Dordrecht: Springer, 2012), 75–96). The abstract of the contribution: This paper discusses Immanuel Kant’s views on the role of experiments in natural science, focusing on their relationship with hypotheses, laws of nature, and the heuristic principles of scientific enquiry. Kant’s views are contrasted with the philosophy of experiment that was first sketched by Francis Bacon and later developed by Robert Boyle and Robert Hooke. Kant holds that experiments are always designed and carried out in the light of hypotheses. Hypotheses are derived from experience…

Martedì 11 novembre si terrà il primo incontro, per l’a. a. 2014/2015, del seminario dedicato al pensiero di Hegel del Corso di Dottorato in Filosofia dell’Università di Padova. Quest’anno il seminario sarà dedicato al concetto hegeliano di Wirklichkeit. La nozione di Wirklichkeit costituisce un concetto fondamentale del sistema hegeliano. Essa gioca un ruolo centrale tanto nella Wissenschaft der Logik quanto nella Realphilosophie relativamente alle sfere della natura e dello spirito. La sua problematicità investe svariati aspetti del sistema, quali ad esempio la differenza tra Realität e Wirklichkeit o la celebre tesi secondo cui ciò che è reale (wirklich) è razionale (vernünftig), ma anche il rapporto tra pensiero e mondo, tra soggettività e oggettività, tra logos e physis e tra logos e ethos. In questo senso, il concetto di realtà rappresenta una sorta di prisma attraverso cui è possibile guardare al significato…

The abstract of the contribution: During recent decades, Benjamin Libet’s experiments on awareness of voluntary acts have been a focus of the interest of neuroscientists and philosophers. As is well known, Libet has shown that awareness of intending to act “here and now” (for example, the free and spontaneous decision to bend the wrist) is preceded by about a half a second of measurable electric change of the motor cortex. More recent experiments have even shifted the neural anticipation to 10 seconds. The current paper has two…

The abstract of the article: The theory of ‘objective thought’ can be characterized as an essential core of the Hegelian philosophy and, at the same time, as one of its most indigestible kernels. This theory, at the intersection of foundational and epistemological problems, on the one hand, provides Hegel’s solution to the problem of the relation between being and thought. On the other hand, this theory is the result of a powerful conceptual torsion carried out by Hegel on the notion…
