It follows from moral relativism that, e. Search Within These Results:. Wittgenstein does. General histories of philosophy aim to provide accounts of the whole history of philosophy. Dust Jacket Included. Killing off groups of people who have different genes, genocide, acheives that. Around , my understanding is the Spanish told the Jews that they could leave, convert or be killed. Uckelman on Obligations. Given that this is such a huge challenge for you as a moral anti-realist and that, as I say, moral anti-realism is totally counterintuitive and has no obvious upsides apart from the fact that it is very hard to refute, I really don't see it as an attractive view in any sense. Woolf on Cicero. All anyone can do is try to persaude, because there are no facts of the matter. Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, Ideological approaches use the history of philosophy for the justification of a chosen point of view and treat texts accordingly Marxist historians. You could easily say that in fact, anything goes. There are texts that are preserved only as fragments, like with the Presocratics and early Stoics; similar problems arise with, say, anonymous glosses or notes in medieval manuscripts, where we can't be sure what if any other material was written by the same annotator. Cats play with mice before killing them and we cuddle up to them after they've done it. Maximus the Confessor. They didn't stop Genghis Khan. There was no police force, no courts, no state institutions, just a loose association of tribes. Ancient Philosophy Today. There is no fact of the matter about genocide or slavery being wrong. Kristeller, Paul Oskar. I think you may be falling into the trap of going from "more information or context would help me understand why culture C thinks practice P is ok" from "I am in no position to say that culture C is wrong to practice P. Curley, Edwin. Sociological approaches break down into several, depending on whether they emphasize cultural Gilson , psychological Kusch , or generally contextual factors Peckhaus in the study of the history of philosophy. After all, legal practices—such as precedential reasoning precisely —themselves might offer their own kind of historiography, if not philosophy of history, that might inform present debates. Soft Cover. This book is a must read for anyone working in posthumanism or animal studies. Cory on Self-Awareness. Rather, they are reconstructions produced by editorial processes that took into account various manuscript versions of Ockham's text, and relied on the judgment of various editors as to the most historically accurate reading. Humanities Encyclopedias almanacs transcripts and maps History and Historiography of Philosophy. According to what you wrote before, "anyone can do that". My favorite example here is the medieval debates over the eternity of the world. Historical Theology. Diogenes Laertius. Given their different starting points and because there is no fact of the matter about where to start, Chaim and Belinda would only be wrong if they were inconsistent or got their other facts wrong somehow. This last studies the history of philosophy understood as past events in order to make claims about its nature and how it develops in general. What we might expect a philosopher to say is going to depend to a great extent on what our own interests and philosophical worldview looks like, so breaking this rule can be another souce of anachronism. History and Anti-History in Philosophy 1st edition Writer Thanks - it would be great to hear what your students make of the list. None of this is to say that it is illegitimate for a historian to spend much of their time reading, say, Plato, or Descartes. A good one to memorize is Socrates' death date of BC, because you can work backward to know when the Presocratics were and forward for Plato and Aristotle. Plato is the archetype of those who cannot be imitated; Aristotle of those who shouldn't be. Add to Basket Used Condition: Good. Should we intervene in Syria? Peter Singer makes the point that an adult chimpanzee is cognitively more advanced than a human baby or someone mentally disabled. If moral facts exist, why don't moral realists tell us what these moral facts are and tell us how they arrived at them, so we can verify these moral facts. Views that were ahead of his time. Just selecting what is interesting to study contains an element of presentism. Or should I do something else with my life? Bennett, Jonathan. Heloise and Abelard.

One sees this with other cultures too. Augustine on Language. Cuomo on Mathematics. Ancient Philosophy Today. Close to Mint, appears newly published. And then there is the issue of what, if any, argumentative weight a metaphor has - should we be more persuaded by a philosophical view just because it is illuminated by a rhetorically powerful metaphor? Force of various kinds is another form of persuasion. Unemployed Animality 6. In the US declaration of independence, it's stated "all men are created equal", but some of the same people who wrote that also owned slaves. People often argue about who has the burden of proof. The hostile addition is a later intervention, not from the student, but I think I will leave that one so everyone can enjoy the ambiguity. On a side note, I'm not sure if you'll answer this, but I'd like to ask what kind of advice would you give to a prospective undergrad with an interest in the history of philosophy in the Islamic world? Third, there is something philosophical about the commentary activity itself. I assume Aristotle had a very clear idea what he wanted to say but it hasn't come across to us in a form that we can decode with any confidence. If we take actions to be so only under certain descriptions as famously argued for by G. In fact, one reason for the widespread myth that philosophy in the Islamic world ended after the 12th century or so is that thereafter, philosophy was often written in the form of glosses and commentaries, which are always in danger of not being taken seriously. Marenbon on Boethius. Earlier you said: But surely the interesting thing philosophers do is not make individual claims anyone can do that: God exists! Aristotle's Biology. Published by University of Chicago Press, Chicago Thanks for that thoughtful post. According to it, historians must attempt to develop the most favorable interpretations of the philosophical views they study. Historiography as a Written Form. Sex gave pleasure, there for it was good — as long as it was consensual and no-one got hurt. This is another rule that has to do with avoiding anachronism. Long on the Self. We may unthinkingly adopt and echo the views of our culture. There are no moral facts on which to ground moral frameworks. Scholarly approaches seek to establish reliable texts, to produce accurate translations, to determine precise chronologies, and to reconstruct and expound the views of past authors and their relations without engaging in value judgments Owens Then again, if politician X that I didn't endorse, supported an idea that I did endorse, I'd likely more readily think of that idea as being infected by politician X. But when other people say of course we can reproach Kant where his views seem racist, that also sort of makes sense to me. I agree the arguments people give are interesting, but to me, whether or not all hangs together is not especially troubling. History and Anti-History in Philosophy 1st edition Reviews I also don't "find myself" having moral beliefs. We are much more likely to discover tensions and disagreements within a tradition of any significant historical scope, than we are to discover some kind of enduring character that marks all thought from within that tradition. Seller Image. Some people talk about an inner moral sense or a moral faculty that tunes in to moral truth. Because there are no moral facts. The bibliography lists only sources from the last twenty-five years, except for some classical and medieval sources and a few earlier well-known historical accounts. It seems like all you are willing to say about that is "there are no moral truths. Hankinson on Galen. Aristotle's Life and Works. Qty :. Opsomer on Platonism. Here I like something that we used to emphasize a lot when I taught in England it's much less emphasized in Germany, I find : that from the very beginning of their education in philosophy, students should not just summarize and present a text in their essays or discussion in class, but also say what they think about it, consider possible counter-arguments, etc. It also led him to advocate for gay rights, at a time when being homosexual in Great Britain could result in the death penalty. Epicurus' Principles. Condition: Good. Byzantium and Islam. I don't know if you are interseted in further reflections on these two suggested ammendments, but I discuss them in this paper here. I'd probably take pushpin over poetry. In general, with evaluative matters, we must proceed case-by-case. One of the reasons I post online is so that people much sharper than me can point out where I'm going wrong.

  • 1 Introduction
    INTRODUCTION: Nietzsche’s Classical Education and the Influence of Socrates Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (1844-1900) was born in the small town of Röcken, in the Prussian province of Saxony-Anhalt, which is located in what was, until the fall of the Berlin Wall, known as East Germany. His knowledge of the ancient world, derived from his rigorous education in classical studies, would prove to be an important reference point for several of his future philosophical projects.1 Nietzsche originally began his study of Latin and Greek in 1851, while his more involved and disciplined study of the classics began in 1858 at the famous Pforta boarding school in Naumburg. Upon leaving the Pforta school in 1864 Nietzsche wrote his first philological study, in Latin, entitled “De Theognide Megarensi” (On Theognis of Megara). From 1864 until 1868 Nietzsche studied classics with Otto Jahn and Friedrich Ritschl, who were considered to be among the leading philologists of the second half of the 19th century. Nietzsche's formal study of the classics ended in 1869 when, based upon the recommendation of his mentor, Professor Ritschl, he was offered a position as Professor of Classical Philology at Basel University at the unprecedented age of 24.2 As a result, the University of Leipzig awarded him the doctoral degree, without his ever having to take comprehensive examinations or write a doctoral dissertation. As a scholar, Nietzsche wrote several essays and lectures on Greek rhetoric, Latin grammar, Greek culture, and Greek philosophy, such as “Homer and Classical Philology,” (1869), “Socrates and Tragedy” (1870), “The Greek State” (1871), “Homer’s Contest” (1872), “The Pre-Platonic Philosophers” (1872), “Introduction to the Study of the Platonic Dialogue” 1 For a rigorous defense of this view, see James Porter, Nietzsche and the Philology of the Future (California: Stanford University Press, 2000).

  • Inquiry and Experience in the Pragmatic Tradition
    INQUIRY AND EXPERIENCE IN THE PRAGMATIC TRADITION Prof. Dr. DENNIS M. SENCHUK Abstract: An exploration of some issues raised by Victorino Tejera's recent book, American Modem: The Path Not Taken, this paper considers the extent to which C.S. Peirce's philosophy may be regarded as a direct New World departure from Early Modern European Philosophy. After detailing some problems with upholding any sharp distinction between Cartesian and Peircean metaphilosophies, I conclude that Peirce may be credited, first, with a radical revision of the European Modern conception of experiences, with what might be called a semiotic view of them (as mediated by signs, fraught with inferential processes, and bound up with actions); and, second, with a distinctive, still compelling conception of scientific as well as philosophical inquiry. Turning next to the heir-apparent philosophizing of John Dewey, I note its more obvious affinities to Peirce's thinking but then emphasize that Dewey's own reconception of experience is a still more dramatic departure from the whole European Modern tradition. Experience, Dewey teaches us, is essentially active; it is never entirely passive. This lesson, which I take to be Dewey's single most valuable, philosophically most transformative insight, remains largely unlearnt by contemporary philosophers. I end the paper by suggesting that Dewey's conception of experience affords a formidable challenge to John McDowell's Peirce-friendly outlook in Mind and World. Modern Philosophy is a period or tradition in European thinking and writing that begins with Descartes. The path charted by V. Tejera, in American Modern: The Path Not Taken, has as its progenitor Charles Sanders Peirce, who heads off, some centuries later, in an aggressively anti-Cartesian direction.

Subjectivity, Passion, and Mystical Intuition: Nietzsche’s Early Writing Abstract For Nietzsche, the subject is aesthetically creative, meaning that the subject is a dynamic process of self-transformation that involves not only the subject’s sense of self, but the meaning of their world. In my first chapter, I look at "On Truth and Lying in a Non-Moral Sense" to show how Nietzsche deconstructs rationalist epistemology in order to show that knowledge and meaning are an aesthetic activity. In my second chapter, I look at "On the Uses and Disadvantages of History for Life" to argue that Nietzsche sees creativity as a passionate, sublime overflow, a rupture with the present that artistically reconfigures meaning.

  • Second Sailing: Alternative Perspectives on Plato
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2015 Is the Idea of the Good Beyond Being? Plato’s ”epekeina tês ousias” revisited (Republic, 6, 509b8-10) Ferber, Rafael ; Damschen, Gregor Abstract: The article tries to prove that the famous formula ”epekeina tês ousias” (R.509b8) has to be understood in the sense of being beyond being and not only in the sense of being beyond essence. We hereby make three points: first, since pure textual exegesis of 509b8–10 seems to lead toendless controversy, a formal proof for the metaontological interpretation could be helpful to settle the issue; we try to give such a proof. Second, we offer a corollary of the formal proof, showing that self-predication of the form of the Good, or of any form, is not possible, that is: no form of F has the form of F. Third, we apply Spinoza’s distinction between an “ens imaginarium” and a “chimaera” to Plato’s Idea of the Good.
