Abstract:
This paper defends a ‘perspectivist’ reading of Plato’s dialogues. According to this reading, each dialogue presents a particular and limited perspective on the truth, conditioned by the specific context, aim and characters, where this perspective, not claiming to represent the whole truth on a topic, is not incompatible with the possibly very different perspectives found in other dialogues nor, on the other hand, can be subordinated or assimilated to one of these other perspectives. This model is contrasted to the other models that have been proposed, i.e., Unitarianism, Developmentalism, and ‘Prolepticism’, and is shown to address and overcome the limitations of each. One major advantage of ‘perspectivism’ against the other interpretative models is that, unlike them, it can do full justice to the literary and dramatic character of the dialogues without falling into the opposite extreme of turning them into literary games with no positive philosophical content. To say that Plato’s dialogues are ‘perspectivist’ is not to say that they contain no ‘doctrines’ on the soul, for example, but, on the contrary, to stress the plurality of doctrines, with the observation that each is true within the limits of the argumentative function it is introduced to serve and of the specific dialogical context.

Abstract:
Objectivists and perspectivists disagree about the question of whether what an agent ought to do depends on the totality of facts or on the agent’s limited epistemic perspective. While objectivism fails to account for normative guidance, perspectivism faces the challenge of explaining phenomena (occurring most notably in advice, but also in first-personal deliberation) in which the use of “ought” is geared to evidence that is better than the evidence currently available to the agent. This paper aims to defend perspectivism by developing a perspectivist account that captures the phenomena in question.

Abstract:
Perspectivas de mundo são condutas para interagir com as diversas formas de vida no ambiente. Baseado nisto, a temática a ser discutida traz consigo pensamentos para perceber o ambiente pela ótica indígena, em detrimento da ocidental etnocêntrica, e assim articular a ideia do perspectivismo ameríndio como abordagem reflexiva ao entendimento e discussão de questões socioambientais em voga no atual cenário do contexto educativo brasileiro. Dessa forma, partiu-se do debate antropológico a fim de abordar o etnocentrismo, o multiculturalismo e o perspectivismo ameríndio para compreender a discussão acerca da relação Cultura e Natureza. Na sequência, tem-se uma reflexão sobre a concepção multinaturalista ameríndia para desfazer a dicotomia Cultura e Natureza, e com isso pensar nossas interações e relações com outros seres vivos e o ambiente pela ótica ameríndia e suas considerações ecossistêmicas como constructo para uma abordagem educativa. A partir do perspectivismo ameríndio ou multinaturalismo tem-se a possiblidade de exercitar outra percepção do mundo, e suas formas de interações entre seres vivos no ambiente. Trata-se, portanto, de pensar para além do egocentrismo, e com isso compreendermos que somos apenas mais uma espécie na terra, entre outras milhares.Palavras-chave: Perspectivismo; Educação ambiental, Cultura e natureza; Percepção. ABSTRACT: World perspectives are conduits for interacting with the various forms of life in the environment. Based on this, the theme to be discussed brings with it thoughts to perceive the environment from the indigenous perspective, to the detriment of the ethnocentric Western, and thus articulate the idea of Amerindian perspectivism as a reflexive approach to the understanding and discussion of socio-environmental issues in vogue in the current context scenario Education. Thus, we started with the anthropological debate in order to approach ethnocentrism, multiculturalism and Amerindian perspectivism to understand the discussion about the relation Culture and Nature. A reflection on the Amerindian multiculturalist conception to undo the dichotomy of Culture and Nature, and with it, our interactions and relations with other living beings and the environment from the Amerindian perspective and its ecosystemic considerations as a construct for an educational approach. From Amerindian perspectivism or multinaturalism one has the possibility of exercising another perception of the world, and its forms of interactions between living beings in the environment. It is therefore a question of thinking beyond egocentrism, and with this we understand that we are just another species on earth, among thousands.Keywords: Perspectivism; Environmental education; Culture and nature; Perception.

AbstractThis article examines possible perspectivist phenomena in the ritual practices and ontology of the Duha reindeer herders of Northern Mongolia. My theoretical point of departure is Viveiros de Castro’s recent theories on perspectivism in the Amazon, and Pedersen’s theories about a distinct Inner Asian perspectivism limited to the human realm. Based on my fieldwork amongst the Duhas, I propose that, laypersons’ manipulations of amulets and shamanic rituals are indeed perspectivist phenomena, where humans switch perspective with the ongons (shamanic helper spirits) and vice versa. It will be shown how the fundamental dialectic in Duha perspectivism is one between seniority (mastery) and juniority (submission), and howthis dialectic serves to challenge and broaden the mainly hierarchical nature of everyday social life.

Abstract:
According to perspectivism about moral obligation, our obligations are affected by our epistemic circumstances. But how exactly should this claim be understood? On Zimmerman’s “Prospective View,” perspectivism is spelled out as the thesis that an option is obligatory if and only if it maximizes what Zimmerman calls “prospective value,” which is in turn determined by the agent’s present evidence. In this article, I raise two objections to this approach. Firstly, I argue that spelling out the difference between perspectivism and anti-perspectivism in terms of value creates a number of problems that can be avoided by an account that proceeds in terms of reasons. Secondly, I argue that Zimmerman focuses on the wrong body of evidence, and that this commits him to an implausible solution to the problem that perspectivists face with regard to advice from better-informed sources.

Abstract:
Abstract The importance of learning chemical ways of thinking is widely recognized. Various frameworks have been developed to address the essence of chemistry and chemical thinking. However, very few studies have focused on how chemical ways of thinking can be defined. To elaborate chemical ways of thinking, this paper draws on scientific perspectivism (Giere 2010; Wimsatt 2007; Thagard 2012). Scientific perspectivism states that, within each general domain, several broadly accepted theoretical models exist side by side. These general theoretical models, or theoretical perspectives, determine which research questions are generated, which types of models are developed, and which criteria are important for evaluating models. A theoretical perspective can be captured in a core reasoning that embodies the fundamental relationship between model and the “real world.” Starting with their most basic form, perspectives can be used in learning how to reason about all types of ill-structured problems, directing and organizing knowledge development, and integrating knowledge and skills. The study is part of a research project on how perspectivism can be applied to the design of secondary-school chemistry education. This particular study concerns the identification, elaboration, and validation of four chemical perspectives for secondary-school chemistry education. We use these perspectives to indicate the consequences of taking a perspectivism approach to a curriculum framework. We conclude with discussing the consequences for secondary chemistry curriculum.

O tema do perspectivismo na filosofia de F. Nietzsche revela sua pertinência na medida em que as discussões se ampliam e se diversificam sobre a compreensão do seu papel, transitando entre uma concepção cosmológica ou uma concepção epistemológica do perspectivismo. Compreende-se, nesta pesquisa, que Nietzsche não separa de maneira radical essas duas concepções, mas argumenta visivelmente a favor da relação entre elas. Para o filósofo, a compreensão epistemológica pressupõe a cosmológica. Nesse sentido, Nietzsche apresenta sua crítica à tradição filosófica, denunciando-a ou responsabilizando-a por preferir e efetivar uma ruptura na integração entre cosmologia e epistemologia, fazendo emergir uma civilização racionalista, moralista e, por fim, niilista. Para o autor, a afirmação do caráter perspectivista da existência, que compreende o mundo como vontade de potência, possibilita a crítica à metafísica conceitual que deposita no mundo suas figuras lingüísticas, traduzindo-o em idéia. Conseqüentemente, Nietzsche contrapõe seu perspectivismo ao subjetivismo moderno, quando este afirma a existência do sujeito pensante, esse espectro criado pela filosofia moderna, que também vê o mundo a partir de uma relação representacional fruto da oposição entre sujeito e objeto. Igualmente, o filósofo evidencia a relação desse sujeito moderno com os valores morais, identificando-o, por isso, como homem religioso. É nessa medida que o perspectivismo também se opõe aos valores morais, denunciando-os de uma esterilização humana frente ao mundo do devir, que faz emergir o niilismo. Portanto, este trabalho quer investigar o perspectivismo de Nietzsche à medida que ele é pensado dentro do seu argumento cosmológico, possibilitando, assim, compreender sua crítica aos conceitos metafísicos de verdade e de moral, tão fundamentais para tradição filosófica.

Abstract:
This study is an exploration of the place of perspectivism in the philosophy of Henri Bergson. His work is compared with that of Thomas Nagel in terms of the mutual concern of these two philosophers to reconcile our increasingly objecti vist and impersonal understanding of reality with the perspectival apprehension of the world that living and conscious beings instantiate. It argues that Bergson's philosophy of time holds the key both to comprehending and to balancing the demands made upon us by these conflicting interests. It is seldom that Bergson's name is thought of in this connection, his concerns more often than not being identified with some thesis about time, movement, or vital forces. One purpose of the present work, therefore, is to contest this interpretive slant, not merely by offering an alternative image of Bergson, but also by critically exploring his employment of perspectivism (both positive and negative). We pursue this goal through the double strategy of both unravelling the inconsistencies in Bergson's· treatment of perspective and separating his own argument from the multitude of myths, opinions, and interpretations, sympathetic and unsympathetic, that have arisen around what is currently understood by "Bergsonism". In retrieving his thought from such philosophical ghettoes as "vitalism," "spiritualism," and "psychologism," we will argue for a Bergsonian perspectivism which ultimately resides in a thesis propounding the primacy of perception. One consequence of this is the demotion of memory's importance within his thought. Not that the orthodox image of Bergsonism that retains the privileged place of memory is wrong. Rather, we argue that there is enough in Bergson's peculiar picture of perception to obviate the need for memory in his philosophy, and, moreover, that it is actually more Bergsonian that memory should be so discharged.

Abstract:
Instead of choosing between reading Nietzsche's perspectivism as a metaphysical thesis or as one relating to his critique of traditional morality, this paper intends to show that these are but two sides of the same coin. As regards the metaphysical position, I argue that perspectivism is a version of idealism that critiques the cogency of the `thing-in-itself,' thereby moving beyond the appearance/reality distinction whilst retaining the fundamental tenant that the subjective contribution to reality is irreducible. As regards Nietzsche's transvaluation of all values, I argue that the notion of perspectivism is utilized to critique the idea of the `Good in-itself,' thereby shifting the focus of morality from that of universally applicable prohibitions and obligations to a sort of virtue ethics in which the subject's unique perspective is given expression in and through their creation of values. Given that, I argue for a certain continuity in Nietzsche's thought, such that perspectivism is best seen as an argument against realism, the basic tenant of which - i.e. the inconceivability of the `in-itself' - remains constant even whilst Nietzsche's interests shift during the evolution of his writings.

Abstract:
This dissertation aims to revitalise and revalue a currently disregarded conceptual field of tolerance, and explores the prospect of it - and its respective practice (toleration) - satisfying Nietzsche"s criteria of life-affirmation and flourishing. The project of revaluation undertaken within this dissertation entails an evaluative re-appraisal and a critically selective incorporation of the particular concepts of tolerance and toleration once highly esteemed during the Hellenistic period. This inquiry centres on the axiological, ethical and psychological perspectives on tolerance and toleration, whilst investigating their compatibility within a Nietzschean valuation. Considerations of a few overlapping epistemological perspectives which are apposite to the aforesaid are articulated. Including the effects on the affective and cognitive accompaniments to toleration, possible formulations of tolerance that undermine life-affirmation and flourishing are also considered from a meta-ethical perspective. In order to do so, a critical analysis of the incorporated aspects of tolerance and toleration is conducted in relation to resentment and ressentiment. The primary questions I address are: „what is it to tolerate?", „how would tolerance and toleration read within a Nietzschean valuation?‟, „what are the psychological - i.e. affective and cognitive - intricacies of tolerating and how do they feature in its procedure?", „what kinds of psychological attachment does one qua human being create in connection with the entities one tolerates?" and „are there possible psychological dangers regarding tolerance and toleration that a Nietzschean valuation can help identify?"

Abstract:
Esta pesquisa pode ser considerada um ensaio analítico a partir de questões de cunho filosófico que transbordam no documentário contemporâneo e encontram um diálogo muito fértil com a obra de Joel Pizzini. A nossa proposta é abordar a obra deste cineasta, especificamente o filme 500 Almas (2004) como inspiração para repensar o real, no documentário, enquanto uma questão de ponto de vista. Para tanto, torna-se necessário entender tal questão como um gesto de implicações mais profundas, comparativamente às teorizações cinematográficas e literárias acerca deste elemento. Trata-se, quiçá, de outra forma de conceber o ponto de vista no cinema, orientada pelo perspectivismo filosófico - pensamento presente nas reflexões de Leibniz, Nietsche, Deleuze e posteriormente assimilado pelo perspectivismo ameríndio com Viveiros de Castro - que amplia e reverbera o seu significado não se limitando à expressão ou fixação do ponto de vista de um sujeito autor. Trata-se da possibilidade acarretada pelo documentário, uma forma que é por pressuposto híbrida, de questionar, de produzir verdades, de repensar a distinção entre essência e aparência, entre real e invenção. Estas questões são problematizadas a partir de autores como Comolli e Guy Gauthier que pensam o documentário contemporâneo e as implicações de outros sujeitos e elementos envolvidos no filme que se faz em fricção com o real: a mise-en-scène dos sujeitos filmados, os sujeitos espectadores, a montagem criativa. Ao analisar o filme 500 Almas, observamos de que forma esses e outros elementos são engendrados para constituir o ponto de vista do real.
This research can be considered as an analytical essay from matter of philosophical that abound in contemporary documentary and find a very fruitful dialogue with the work of Joel Pizzini. Our proposal is to address the work of this director, specifically the film 500 Almas (2004) as inspiration for rethinking the real as a matter of the point of view. Therefore, it is necessary to understand this issue as a gesture of deeper implications, compared to cinematographic and literary theorizing about this element. It is, perhaps, another way of conceiving the point of view in cinema, guided by philosophical perspectivism - present thought the reflections of Leibniz, Nietzsche, Deleuze and subsequently assimilated by amerindian perspectivism with Viveiros de Castro - which expands and reverberates your meaning not limited to the expression or fastening point of view of an individual author. It brought about the possibility for the documentary, which is a form of hybrid assumption, to question, to produce truths, to rethink the distinction between essence and appearance, between real and invention. These questions are problematized from authors such as Comolli and Guy Gauthier who think contemporary documentary and implications for other subjects and elements involved in the film that is in friction with the real: the mise-en-scène of the subjects filmed, the subjects spectators, the creative mounting. When analyzing the film 500 Almas, we observe how these and other elements are interwoven to build the point of view of the real.

Abstract:
Com o intento de fundar a metafísica rumo ao conhecimento certo, Descartes rejeita a história precedente da filosofia. Com efeito, esta carrega consigo uma pluralidade de opiniões e disputas, o que é inaceitável face à unidade da verdade e da razão. Por isso, o progresso da filosofia em direção ao futuro só pode se dar mediante uma ruptura com o passado, ruptura que se opera por meio da dúvida metódica. Leibniz, ao contrário, defende que o avanço do conhecimento rumo à descoberta de novas verdades pode e deve retomar o que já foi anteriormente estabelecido. Isto porque, à diferença de Descartes, o autor da Monadologia possui uma outra concepção da relação entre pluralidade e unidade, o que se pode constatar de maneira privilegiada na sua tese de que cada mônada ou ser criado representa o universo inteiro de uma determinada perspectiva. Ora, como todas as representações possuem o mesmo referente o mundo , todas são verdadeiras e harmônicas entre si, de modo que o que varia é a maneira como o mundo é representado, isto é, os graus de distinção presentes na representação. Deste modo, a pluralidade dos sistemas filosóficos redunda em diferenças (de modo que uns são mais perfeitos do que outros e que haja determinadas partes mais relevantes do que outras dentro de um mesmo sistema), mas não em uma heterogeneidade radical. Ora, justamente sem a consideração de que há alguma conveniência subjacente na diversidade das filosofias, não é possível a tentativa de conciliação do que haveria de melhor entre elas, isto é, se há uma heterogeneidade irredutível, como Descartes considera, não há qualquer ponto de transigência. Assim, a fim de dar conta de como este projeto de conciliação das filosofias é possível, examinar-se-á nesta dissertação a tese de que cada mônada representa o universo inteiro de uma determinada perspectiva, exame no qual se enfatizará as noções leibnizianas de espírito, de conhecimento e de sistema
Willing to found metaphysics toward right knowledge, Descartes denies the preceding Philosophy history on the basis that the plurality of opinions and disputes this Philosophy holds is not acceptable under the unity of true and reason. As a result, Philosophy cannot evolve toward the future unless by breaking up with the past, a rupture that operates by way of the methodic doubt. Leibniz, in contrast, advocates that the evolution of knowledge toward the discovery of new truths can and should resume what was established antecedently. This is so because, unlike Descartes, the author of Monadology conceives the plurality-unity relationship in a different way, which one has the privilege to infer from his thesis that each monad or created being represents the entire universe from a certain perspective. Now, since all representations have the same referent the world , all are true and harmonic in relation to each other, and thus what varies is how the world is represented, i.e., the degrees of distinction in the representation. Therefore, the plurality of philosophic systems results in differences (where one is more perfect than another and certain parts are more relevant than others within a system) but not in a radical heterogeneity. Indeed, precisely without considering that some convenience underlies the diversity of philosophies, one cannot attempt to conciliate them in what would be the best in them, i.e., if an irreducible heterogeneity does exist, as Descartes proposes, then there is no point of convergency. Therefore, in order to apprehend how this project of conciliation of philosophies is possible, this paper will address the thesis that each monad represents the entire universe from a certain perspective, with an emphasis on Leibnizs notions of spirit, knowledge, and system

Full text
Abstract:
Nietzsche's controversial "aestheticist" claim that existence and the world are only justifiable as aesthetic phenomena provides the motivation for this thesis. The aestheticist claim is summative of Nietzsche's characteristic aestheticism, which allows for a link between the typically distinct concepts of art and truth. Although the available literature includes analysis of Nietzsche's aestheticism, no full defence of it has previously been offered. The general view seems to be that aestheticism should be treated sceptically, and as such, it remains underdeveloped within contemporary Nietzsche studies. The chief aims of the thesis are therefore to respond to this relative neglect of the aestheticist view of the art/truth relation, and to develop and defend a standard account of aestheticism. Additionally, in so doing the thesis aims to offer implicit evidence of Nietzsche's philosophy as continuous in order to raise the question of the textual periodisation technique, which lends methodological weight to the sceptical attitude towards Nietzsche's aestheticism. The question of aestheticism is contextualised within the 'Two Cultures' debate on the relation between art, truth and science and the nihilistic crisis of values in modern culture. As such, the wider significance of defending Nietzsche's aestheticism is made appreciable. Following analysis of the available readings of aestheticism, key elements are considered and the features of a standard account are identified. However, three problems which turn on issues surrounding the art/truth relation in Nietzsche are also identified: the problems of metaphysics, ethics and common ontological ground. The thesis proposes solutions to each of these in turn. Nietzsche's aestheticism is therefore defended by appeal to an interpretative link between art and truth in the terms of Nietzsche's conception of being.
