NICOLAE V. DURĂ* From “Pro Philosophia” to Nietzschek thinking. Some considera ons as philosophical knowledge is concerned** The opinion that the theologian can only come to a „second-hand~ Philosophy has not yet vanished from the environment of Philosophers, just as the idea that the philosopher put his ideas forward on some ma ers „in a preven ve manner~1 has not vanished from the theological environment. But, if mutual mistrust persists, what can one do?! In our opinion, we should fi rst of all acquire the knowledge in both fi elds, id est the philosophical and theological fi elds, and only a erwards may we righ ully express our opinion in this regard. In addi on, we should know very well what philosophers say about Theology and what the theologians say about Philosophy. That is why, within the pages of this study, we evaluated in a „sine ira et studio~ manner both the opinions of some philosophers and the ones of some theologians with regard to Philosophy and Theology and, ipso facto, to their contribu on as knowledge is concerned. In line with Plato`s advice, the ones who deal „with Philosophy~ should not only limit themselves to „thoughts and opinions~, which are nothing but „verbal skills not worth being listened to and nothing authen c or that pertain to any sound thinking~,2 but strive to contemplate the essence, namely that „summa ra o~ or „ὁ ὀρθος λόγος~, „that was born before all ages (quae saeculis omnibus ante nata est)~,3 that St. John the Evangelist simply refers to as „Ὁ Λογος~ (the Word), as the Word was in the beginning and „the Word (Logos) was with God, and the Word was God.~ (John I, 1). The same philosopher, who lived in the V-th century before Christ, iden fi ed this knowledge with „Theology~, that is with „… the science of what will be forever …~,4 and, in * Ovidius University of Constanta (Romania) and Member of the Academy of Romanian Scien sts ** Academical Lecture held on 14th May 2015, with the occasion of the awarding the tle of D.H.C. by the University „Ivane Javakhishvili” of Tbilisi (Georgia). 1 See, Iacob Iţhac Niemirower, Iudaismul (Judaism), Hasefer Publ.

This is „the stain~ – A. Cornea wrote – that the philosopher refers to and that has nothing to do with mere oblivion~.3 In this respect, carelessness towards the Spirit (soul) is the result of faithlessness and if we do not take „Faith~ seriously, we cannot cross „the river of Lethe~, that is the treshhold of earthly existence to the one of eternity, for which we also need – according to the teaching of Jesus Christ our Saviour – „knowledge~ (In. 17, 3).

  • ROMANIAN IDENTITY and CULTURAL POLITICS UNDER CEAU§ESCU: an EXAMPLE from PHILOSOPHY1 Katherine Verdery
    ROMANIAN IDENTITY AND CULTURAL POLITICS UNDER CEAU§ESCU: AN EXAMPLE FROM PHILOSOPHY1 Katherine Verdery Studies of intellectuals, their relation to power, and their role in shaping social ideologies' occupy an important place in twentieth-century social science (e.g., Mannheim 1955, Gramsci 1971, Shils 1958, Gouldner 1979, Foucault 1978 and 1980, Bourdieu 1975 and 1988, Konri.\d and Szelenyi 1979, Bauman 1987). While earlier writings (such as Shils 1958 and Coser 1965) treatec;i intellectual activity as "free-floating" and as relatively independent of political interest, the consensus of the 1970s and 1980s emphasizes, rather, that intellectual production is situated, embedded in political and social relations. Different theorists have different views concerning the political character of scientific findings and scholarly debates. Some emphasize the ways in which knowledge develops practices that contribute to subjection (e.g., Bauman 1987, Foucault 1978); others focus on the politics that occur within afield of intellectual activity and on how that field is tied to political and eco~omic processes in. the society as a whole (e.g., .Abbott 1988, Bourdieu 1975, 1988). Still others examine how the discourses of "intellectuals build up ideological premises that either construct or challenge social hegemonies (e.g., Simmonds-Duke 1987). This essay, and the study of which it forms a part (Verdery 1991), follow the third of these routes. My objective is to investigate how intellectual activity in Romania under ceau~escu contributed to reproducing

  • ROMANIAN HUMANISM in the PHILOSOPHICAL VISION of CONSTANTIN MICU STAVILA Frăguța Zaharia1
    CBU INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON INNOVATIONS IN SCIENCE AND EDUCATION MARCH 22-24, 2017, PRAGUE, CZECH REPUBLIC WWW.CBUNI.CZ, WWW.JOURNALS.CZ ROMANIAN HUMANISM IN THE PHILOSOPHICAL VISION OF CONSTANTIN MICU STAVILA Frăguța Zaharia1 Abstract: The present European context challenges us to approach the issues of Romanian dignity, humanity and humanism. The purpose of this essay is to emphasize the interpretative and explanatory dimensions of Constantin Micu Stavila’s philosophical thinking focused on the meaning of life and the human destiny, no less on the significance of the Christian personalism that the Romanian-French philosopher has cultivated it. Some questions arise: What is the role of philosophy and religion in understanding the meaning of life? How do we have to consider the human being and by especially the characteristics defining the Human within the Romanian culture? Trying to provide an honest, coherent and enlightening response, the paper is organized into two parts: 1. The mission of Romanian philosophy – attempting to demonstrate that the Romanian culture is integrating itself in the world-wide one seeing that there is an intimate complementarity of philosophy and religion; and 2. Romanian cultural messianism – developing an interpretation of the Romanian folklore according to the topic of the paper. UDC Classification: 13; DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.12955/cbup.v5.1044 Keywords: Constantin Micu Stavila, Romanian humanism, dignity, (the) Human Introduction Too little known in the present Romanian philosophical field, Constantin Micu Stavila (1914-2003) was a PhD Professor at the Faculties of Philosophy and Theology in Bucharest (1942-1947). Since 1969 he settled in France where he continued his philosophical activity.

  • Response to David Wallace Brian Bruya
    1 Response to David Wallace Brian Bruya In responding to David Wallace, I'll lay out the sections of my argument from my article first (highlighting the sections that Wallace addresses), along with a quick summary of my main conclusions, and then review his complaints one by one, assessing along the way how much, if at all, they affect the overall argument. Here are the section headings in my article: Flaws in PGR A. Selection Bias I: Sampling Methods B. Selection Bias II: Expert Opinion and Overall Ranking C. Selection Bias III: Underrepresentation of Methodological Continentalists D. Methodological Flaw I: Misapplication of the Expert Committee E. Methodological Flaw II: Area Dilution F.1. PGR Results Demonstrate a Bias against History F.2. PGR Demonstrates a Bias Against Other. Suggestions for improving PGR 1. Use a Random Sample for the Evaluator Pool 2. Use Mathematically Aggregated Specialty Scores to Calculate Overall Ranking 3. Allow Evaluators to Evaluate Only One Specialty 4. Revise the List of Specialties 5. Offer a Special Score to Indicate Comprehensive Balance Within Programs Summary of conclusions: The PGR employs a deeply flawed sampling method that provides no generalizable information about the quality of the programs being evaluated. The evaluators evaluate mainly outside of their areas of expertise, and so the rationale for using "experts" and for thereby excluding all other potential evaluators is void. This exclusiveness is slanted toward the area of Analytic M&E and away from non-Analytic History, and very far away from Other. As a result, specialties in areas that the PGR marginalizes or excludes outright are at a disadvantage when any program appeals to its PGR rank in making hiring decisions.

    Notes 1 Global Racisms and Racism in Russia: An Introduction 1. All translations from Russian and German are by the author unless otherwise indicated. 2. Sik became a prisoner of war of the Russians during World War One. He chose to stay in Russia after being released, joined the Soviet Communist Party in 1920, and lived as an Hungarian émigré in the Soviet Union until 1945, when he returned to Hungary. He later served as the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Hungary from 1958 to 1961. 3. http://www.sova-center.ru/en/. 2 Race and Racism in the Russian Past 1. The film featured the following song by Pavel German: ‘Before all enemies are known / While at least one of them is still alive / Every honest and simple Soviet citizen / Has to be an NKVD officer (chekist). / Our fortresses are ever stronger / The chekists of today / Are all the 170 million / Of my Fatherland’s Patriots!’ 2. Stalin composed his Marksizm i natsional’nyi vopros [Marxism and the Nationalities Question] in opposition to Otto Bauer’s Die Nationalitätenfrage und die Sozialdemokratie. Bauer emphasized that ‘commonality of des- tiny’ defines national character (aus Schicksalsgemeinschaft erwachsende Charaktergemeinschaft), and he pointed to ‘commonality of origin’ and ‘natural heredity’ as the important factors in this regard. He nevertheless maintained that ‘cultural commonality’ is the factor which defines the repro- duction of national differences. Bauer’s position may be defined as cultural racism in the language used by some contemporary scholars of racism. 3 Race, Racialization and Racism: A New Theoretical Framework 1. Although only Kant’s Kritik der Urteilskraft is cited here, two different English translations are chosen to use, namely, Pluhar’s and the most recent Cambridge University Press edition.

The narrative of classical Eurasianism in the 1920s was developed to explain that Western civilisation was not superior to other civilisations. Eurasia is the middle continent between other parts of Europe and Asia. There are historical, geographical, and cultural impetuses here which push nations to different forms of association. However, the dissolution of the USSR gave birth to new ideologies and political theories of Eurasianism. The most positive one was extensively developed by the President of Kazakhstan Nursultan Nazarbaev. Today, we witness the fourth stage of the development of Eurasianism.
