  • Augustine on Heart and Life Essays in Memory of William Harmless, S.J
    Augustine on Heart and Life Essays in Memory of William Harmless, S.J. Edited by John J. O’Keefe and Michael Cameron 10. Augustine’s Tragic Vision Paul M. Blowers, Emmanuel Christian Seminary at Milligan College Abstract This essay explores Augustine’s capacity to accommodate a tragic vision of human existence within his interpretation of the Christian revelation. Broadly speaking, for Augustine, sacred history combines the tragic necessity of self-inflicted human sinfulness with the benevolent necessity of the economy of divine grace. Augustine to some degree admired the pagan tragedians for compelling the attention and emotion of their audiences in confronting the ineluctability of evil (and other tragic themes), but their mimesis ultimately failed since it could not touch the reality conveyed in divine revelation. Two exegetical test cases, the story of Jephthah’s sacrifice of his daughter (Judges 11) and King Saul’s tragic heroics in 1 Samuel, exemplify how Augustine greatly profited from interpreting Scripture through a tragical lens. A whole other dimension of Augustine’s tragic vision appears in his attempt – inspired from his own early experience of staged tragedies in Carthage – to reenter ancient philosophical debates on tragedy and mimesis, and to revamp in Christian terms the tragic emotions, especially tragic pity as Christian mercy. 157 Augustine on Heart and Life Keywords: tragedy, necessity, theodicy, mimesis, catharsis, tragic pity Introduction “Tragedy” and “the tragic” are notoriously slippery terms both in historical and colloquial usage. Over the centuries “tragedy” has been employed to indicate, on the one hand, a genre of ancient drama – one depicting flawed human characters struggling heroically against the leviathan forces of cosmic necessity (in the form of abject suffering, death, etc.) – and, on the other hand, commonly today, a catastrophic event catching observers by utter surprise and upending their sense of cosmic stability and justice.

  • Humanities the Issue of the Religious Dimension Of
    PERIODYK NAUKOWY AKADEMII POLONIJNEJ 37 (2019) nr 6 HUMANITIES THE ISSUE OF THE RELIGIOUS DIMENSION OF HUMAN NATURE Jan Mazur Prof. PhD, Pontifical University of John Paul II in Kraków, e-mail: [email protected], http://orcid.org/0000-0002- 0548-0205, Poland Abraham Kome PhD, John Paul II International University of Bafang, e-mail: [email protected], orcid.org/0000-0001-7326-227X, Cameroon Abstract. This text is an attempt to answer the question of whether human nature needs religion. The author begins by presenting two concepts that are key in this discourse. These are the terms: religion and human nature. Then he undertakes an analysis of the problem, referring to the thoughts of religious experts: Rudolf Otto and Mircea Eliade and the philosopher Max Scheler. The subject of reflection is the definition of man as 'homo religiosus'. Questioning God's existence has a negative effect on human nature. This situation is illustrated by the views of two known philosophers, existentialists - Friedrich Nietzsche and Jean-Paul Sartre. Their vision of the world was marked by unbelief in God. Life experience teaches that human nature strives for transcendent reality, longs for God. Any departure from this tendency does not, however, invalidate the religious nature of man, but certainly falsifies it. It results in the conversion of an authentic sacrum into its substitutes. In conclusion, the author draws attention to the mystery of man and God, which should be recognized. It is only in this perspective that the problem indicated in the title can be considered. The inspiration for such thinking is the famous phrase of Saint Augustine of Hippo: 'The human soul is restless until it rests in God'.

  • Max Scheler, Formalism in Ethics and Non-Formal Ethics of Values
    Notes Preface 1. Throughout this study I have opted to capitalise the noun 'man' to indicate a gender-free reference to the species, when the use of such expressions as 'he or she' and 'humankind' would be unnecessarily awkward. 2. Lewis Mumford, The City in History (New York: Harcourt, Brace and World, 1961),4. Introduction 1. Hereafter all references to this work will be cited in my text with the abbreviation FORM followed by the page number. All such citations will be to the third edition published in Bern by Franke Verlag in 1966. Unless otherwise noted all translations are mine. Readers who do not have access to the German text are advised to consult the English translation by Manfred S. Frings and Roger L. Funk: Max Scheler, Formalism in Ethics and Non-Formal Ethics of Values: A New Attempt toward the Foundation of an Ethical Personalism (Evanston: Illinois: Northwestern University Press, 1973). 2. While Frings and Funk have chosen to translate materiale as 'non­ formal', my sense is that this locution is both too inclusive and too negative. Many philosophical ethics could be loosely described as non-formal. What is more, to characterise Scheler's effort in terms of what it is not may obscure his concern to establish a distinctive and affirmative foundation for ethics in the experience of an a priori order of values that formal, ethical systems such as Kant's, deny. 3.

    Cultura. International Journal of Philosophy of Culture and Axiology 8(2)/2011: 143–158 DOI: 10.2478/v10193-011-0024-x Rational a priori or Emotional a priori? Husserl and Scheler’s Criticisms of Kant Regarding the Foundation of Ethics Wei ZHANG Department of Philosophy, Sun Yat-sen University No. 135 Xingang Xi Road, Guangzhou 510275, China [email protected] Abstract. Based on the dispute between Protagoras and Socrates on the origin of ethics, one can ask the question of whether the principle of ethics is reason or feeling/emotion, or whether ethics is grounded on reason or feeling/emotion. The development of Kant’s thoughts on ethics shows the tension between rea- son and feeling/emotion. In Kant’s final critical ethics, he held to a principle of “rational a priori.” On the one hand, this is presented as the rational a priori principle being the binding principle of judgment. On the other hand, it is pre- sented as the doctrine of “rational fact” as the ultimate argument of his ethics. Husserl believed that Kant’s doctrine of a rational a priori totally disregarded the a priori essential laws of feeling. Like Husserl, Scheler criticized Kant’s doctrine of a rational a priori, and therefore developed his own theory of an “emotional a priori”. Both of them focused their critiques on the grounding level of ethics. Scheler, however, did not follow Husserl all the way, but criticized him and re- flected on his thoughts. At last, he revealed the primary status of a phenomenol- ogical material ethics of value.

  • Understanding Beyond Language: Perceiving Meaning in Reality
    Understanding beyond language: perceiving meaning in reality C.D. Scott Department of Philosophy & Systematic Theology College of Human Sciences University of South Africa PRETORIA E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Understanding beyond language: perceiving meaning in reality This article is an attempt to develop a counter-argument to the contention that meaning is bound by language. Locating itself within the realist ontology of language developed by Saint Anselm of Canterbury, it will be argued that language com- prises representations of entities perceived both extra to the perceiver and through introspection. Thus, a language game cannot be a closed system in the sense that by its very existence representations of extralinguistic being are contained therein. If truth is defined as that which is the case, the task of the perceiver becomes apprehension of being beheld without the cloud imposed by symbols: representations are not what they represent, instead they serve as windows onto a view of what is. Following exploration of psychological studies on contemplation, it is argued that it is in desymbolised moments of attentive awareness of being that meaning, unfiltered by the representativeness of language (and indeed, other symbolic systems), can arise. It will be proposed that in contemplative traditions, being is not reduced in perception, and the moment of meaning comes to the fore in the engagement and encounter with being. Opsomming Begrip verby taal: gewaarwording van betekenis in die werklikheid Hierdie artikel is ‟n poging om ‟n teenargument te ontwikkel vir die standpunt dat betekenis ingeperk word deur taal. Deur die Koers 76(4) 2011:661-686 661 Understanding beyond language: perceiving meaning in reality argument binne die werklikheidsontologie van Sint Anselmus van Canterbury te plaas, sal geargumenteer word dat taal representasies bevat van entiteite wat buite die waarnemer en ook deur introspeksie waargeneem word.

Any person(s) intending to use a part or whole of the materials in the thesis in a proposed publication must seek copyright release from the Dean of the Graduate School. /y统系馆書 yK~隨隨丫/S/ \a^LIBRARY SYSTEM乂麥// Abstract Abstract of thesis entitled: Person and Man in the Philosophical Anthropology of Max Scheler Submitted by CHEUNG Ching-yuen for the degree of Master in Philosophy in Philosophy at the Chinese University of Hong Kong in August 23'^ 2000. Max Scheler (1874-1928) is one of the most original and influential figures in modem German philosophy. He is an important figure in the phenomenological movement on one side, and he is one of the founders of philosophical anthropology on the other. Although his writing project on Philosophische Anthropologie could not be completed by the end of his life, many insights on the problem of man can be found in the other works of Scheler. The aim of this thesis is to re-construct Scheler丨s philosophical anthropology by analysing the concepts of person and man. "What is man's place in nature?" This is the main question of Scheler's philosophical anthropology. It leads us to ask another basic question, "What is man? Who is man?" This thesis is divided into four chapters.

  • Foolishness, Stupidity, and Cognitive Values 1
    FOOLISHNESS, STUPIDITY, AND COGNITIVE VALUES 1. Introduction What are the relations between ethical values and moral norms, on the one hand, and cognitive values and norms, on the other hand? Between ethical and intellectual virtues and vices? Between cognitive values and other types of value—aesthetic, hedonic, political, prudential and religious? Between kitsch, sham emotions or sentiments, and foolishness? Between foolishness and cognitive vices and forms of practical irrationality such as self-deception, ressentiment, blether, obscurantism, and obscurity? What are and should be our affective attitudes towards knowledge, truth, justifi­ cation, precision, and clarity? In 1930 Jose Ortega y Gasset wondered why there is still no study of foolishness (tonteria) dealing with those aspects of the phenomenon not investigated by Erasmus.1 The first installments of The Man Without Qual­ ities in 1931 and 1933 provide a remarkable panoply of fools, foolishness, silliness, and stupidity and a determined attempt to understand these phe­ nomena. The passion of the book is, its author says, the passion for precision.2 Reason, he also says, "plays a great role" in his art.3 Many of the fools and follies in the novel are presented as examples of attempts to adapt mind (Geist) to life. The Parallel Action is, through and through, a foolish enter­ prise.4 Arnheim, Meingast, Feuermaul, Hans Sepp, Gerda, Diotima, Bonadea, Clarissa, and Professor Lindner display a variety of cognitive vices. Humanitarianism, intuition, mindless action or energy, and pharisaism are depicted as cognitive vices or evils. Ulrich and Agathe, on the other hand, are (imperfect) epistemic heroes. Agathe has "an unusually exact memory, which did not deform its con­ tents by any sort of prejudice or wishful thinking."5 But, we are told by the (Weiningerian?) narrator, although intelligent women such as Agathe are "unerring in their observation of the men they love," they have no the­ oretical inclinations.6 Unlike Ulrich, who is a prince of mind.

  • The Common Sense Personalism of St. John Paul Ii (Karol Wojtyla)
    Studia Gilsoniana 3: supplement (2014): 619–634 | ISSN 2300–0066 Paweá Tarasiewicz John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin Poland THE COMMON SENSE PERSONALISM OF ST. JOHN PAUL II (KAROL WOJTYLA) Demonstrating a linkage between Karol Wojtyla’s philosophical personalism and common sense seems to necessitate showing Wojtyla’s appreciation for classical metaphysics as being nothing other than a phi- losophical development of the common sense interpretation of reality. 1 In my article, then, I am going to support two claims. First, that the personal- ism of St. John Paul II is specified by the metaphysical philosophy of the Lublin Philosophical School (further mentioned as LPS), which in turn means that Wojtyla’s philosophical legacy can not be properly understood unless examined against the background of the philosophical project of this School. Secondly, that Wojtyla’s usage of phenomenological method fully complies with the metaphysical approach to reality. A Framer of LPS Although in the 1950s the Faculty of Philosophy at the Catholic University of Lublin (further mentioned as KUL) formally consisted of many professors, there were merely a few who not only delivered lectures but also contributed in conceiving and running some common project of doing philosophy. In 1954, when he started to commute from Krakow to Lublin, Fr.

  • Jacques Maritain and Alasdair Macintyre on Human Rights
    THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA Jacques Maritain and Alasdair MacIntyre on Human Rights A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Faculty of the School of Philosophy Of The Catholic University of America In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree Doctor of Philosophy © Copyright All Rights Reserved By Carrie Rose Stibora Washington, D.C. 2013 Jacques Maritain and Alasdair MacIntyre on Human Rights Carrie Rose Stibora, Ph.D. Director: V. Bradley Lewis, Ph.D. This dissertation is an examination of the two divergent positions on human rights taken by prominent Catholic and Thomist philosophers Jacques Maritain and Alasdair MacIntyre. Maritain and MacIntyre, although having traveled similar paths, which included atheism, Marxism, anti-liberalism, seemingly have diametrically opposed position on the use of human rights. Maritain's work, including engagement with the drafting of the U.N. Declaration of Human Rights (1948), redefined human rights as an extension of the natural law tradition rooted in the work of Thomas Aquinas. Maritain's unique definition of rights included such notions as personalism, the common good, justice and had a basis in classical metaphysics. MacIntyre, on the other hand, rejects human rights because of their liberal provenance, maintaining that rights language is a necessary band-aid to motivate individuals to help those less fortunate in society where community, the common good and family have been significantly weakened because of liberalism. Starting with John XXIII and the Second Vatican Council up through Benedict XVI, Maritain's articulation of rights influenced several popes. It has become the stock language of the Catholic Church, despite centuries of pontiffs rebuking liberalism and rights language.
