Full textRésumé: Cet essai a pour but (i) d'expliquer le point de vue philosophique d'Aristote sur la honte, et (ii) d'explorer le role de cet opinion dans le cadre du point de vue qu'a Aristote de la façon dont nous apprenons à être bons, de la relation entre maîtres et disciples, la relation entre le philosophe et la société, et la relation qu'a Aristote avec l'Athènes démocratique post-impériale. Dans la partie (i) de cet essai j'argumenterai qu'Aristote divise la honte en différentes parties selon ses qualités affectives et cognitives et leurs référents: ceux-ci étants (I) la honte Étudiant-Réelle: immédiate et vraie; (2) la honte Étudiant-Commune: immédiate et doxastique (liée à doxa et nomos); (3) la honte Mature-Réelle: de disposition conditionnelle et vraie; (4) la honte Mature-Commune: de disposition conditionnelle et doxastique mais fausse. Dans la partie (ii-α) j'argumenterai aussi que la honte a un impact sur nos actions lors de leur délibération en nous poussant à éviter ce qui est communément honteux, ainsi qu'en changeant nos points de vue(à la fois en tant que sujet et participant) lors des situations où la honte se manifeste de manière intersubjective telles que celles qui informent le sujet d'investigation de l'Éthique à Nicomaque. Je défends le point de vue selon lequel Aristote doit s'attarder à ce qui est communément honteux dans le but d'être compris de son audience, d'échapper à la persécution, et afin d'analyser et jeter la honte sur son audience. Dans la partie (ii-β) j'argumente que nous en venons à ressentir de la honte par habituation et activités mimétiques et que la plupart des sujets vont des types de honte (2) à (I) à (3) si ils sont nés dans un ville vertueuse comprenant des lois vertueuses et qu'ils se laissent pousser dans la bone direction. Les sujets poussés dans la mauvaise direction iront généralement du faux type (2) et se déplaceront tranquillement vers le type de honte (4). Dans la partie (iii) j'offre une synthèse les idées susmentionées et suggère que l'approche de la honte d'Aristote constitue ce que l'on peut désigner sous le nom de "honte respectueuse Aristotélicienne," qui implique un regard vers ce qui est communément honteux dans le but de découvrir ce qui est réellement gonteux. compte tenu du fait que la confrontation de la honte à ce qui est communément honteux constitue une partie de la philosophie qui se préoccuppe de la vie humaine, et parce que la philosophei est la meilleure vie possible pour l'homme, confronter la honte n'est pas simplement une "échelle" vers la vertu mais une part fondamentale de l'expérience humaine - même à son meilleur.

Full textUnlike the vast majority of the Platonic dialogues, which feature Socrates as the primary interlocutor, the conversation depicted in Plato's Sophist is led by a Stranger from Elea. While some scholars claim that Socrates' silence throughout the majority of the dialogue and Plato's replacement of Socrates with another philosophic protagonist imply an abandonment of Plato's "earlier," Socratic concerns, careful attention to the Sophist suggests otherwise. In fact, the Sophist appears to be one of the few places in the Platonic corpus where Plato chooses to have two mature philosophers (Socrates and the Eleatic Stranger) confront each other. Plato's dramatic chronology suggests that the conversation depicted in the Sophist takes place the day after Socrates has heard the indictment against him. Thus, the Sophist is part of the series of Platonic dialogues that portray the last days of Socrates--the days leading up to his trial and execution at the hands of the Athenian multitude. At the beginning of the Sophist, Socrates playfully describes the Eleatic Stranger as a cross-examining philosopher-deity who has come to evaluate and judge his philosophical logoi. Additionally, Socrates encourages the Eleatic Stranger to explain the relationship between the philosopher and the sophistic appearance that the philosopher takes on before the ignorant multitude. Socrates remarks imply that while the Athenian demos may not have genuinely understood him, a more accurate inquest can be made by a fellow philosopher. In fact, in the Sophist, the Eleatic Stranger indirectly interrogates the philosophical claims made by Socrates in a variety of other Platonic dialogues. However, the Eleatic Stranger does not simply valorize Socrates' approach to philosophy. While the Eleatic Stranger and Socrates often share similar interests, concerns and conclusions, the Eleatic Stranger is also highly critical of and offers alternatives to some of Socrates' characteristic logoi. In this way, Plato appears to stage a philosophical trial of Socrates in the Sophist--one that encourages his readers to think deeply about the true character of the philosophical life. This dissertation examines the similarities and the differences between Plato's Socrates and the Eleatic Stranger in order to shed light on Plato's own conception of the nature and limits of the philosophical life. It takes the form of a commentary on Plato's Sophist and highlights the conflicts between Socrates and the Eleatic Stranger. Special attention is paid to the Eleatic Stranger and Socrates' disagreements about philosophical methodology and philosophical ontology, both of which are highlighted by the Stranger's critical remarks about Socratic logoi. It is argued that Plato does not side either with the Eleatic Stranger or with Socrates. Instead of simply dismissing one of his philosophical protagonists, Plato encourages his readers to confront both and, thus, begin the investigation of the true nature of philosophy for themselves

Full textEssa tese examina o texto dos primeiros filósofos gregos, em especial os textos em fragmentos de Xenófanes e Parmênides. Faz-se necessário destacar que se lidará com os textos porque é muito comum, dado o estado incompleto de seus ipissima verba, os estudiosos tentarem superar as dificuldades de interpretação a partir de fontes secundárias e de interpretações de autores tardios. Deste modo, acabam separando não apenas a forma e o conteúdo de suas mensagens, mas também alienando estas mensagens mesmas dos contextos específicos em que foram emitidas. Para superar estes problemas, abordaremos os fragmentos destes filósofos a partir de seus próprios contextos e das formas específicas de comunicação que utilizaram. Sob esta perspectiva, será demostrado que suas doutrinas procuravam antes depurar e aperfeiçoar a linguagem e a tradição em que estavam inseridos do que oferecer uma reflexão sistemática, ainda que incipiente, sobre os princípios básicos da realidade.
This thesis examines the texts of the first greek philosophers, especially the Xenophanes and Parmenides fragments. It s necessary to say that we will deal with the texts because it s very common, in face of the incomplete state of their ipissima verba, that scholars try to overcome the difficulties by reading secundary fonts and by interpretations of late-period authors. In this way, they not only separate the form and the content of the philosophers messages, but also alienate the messages from the specific context in which they were formulated. To overcome these problems, we will examine the philosophers fragments by their own historical context and by their concrete and specifics ways of communication. Under this perspective, it will be demonstrated that their teachings was more ocupied with an efforce to depurate and to improve the language and the tradition in which they were inserted than with a systematic although incipient refletion concerning reality s first basic principles.

Full textThe broader context for these two primary objectives is the "ancient quarrel" between the poets and the philosophers and its various manifestations in the work of a number of prominent post- and anti-Enlightenment thinkers. Accordingly, I begin by highlighting several fundamental but much-neglected (or misunderstood) features of Eliot's critical canon that testify to his life-long preoccupation with this still resonant issue. Specifically, I demonstrate that there is a logical connection between his sustained opposition to those who seek in literature a substitute for religious faith or at least philosophic belief, his critique of various more or less sophisticated forms of generic confusion, and his robust defence of the integrity of different discursive forms, social practices, and disciplinary domains. In anticipation of my Eliotic critique of philosophical and literary-theoretical postmodernism, I then locate Eliot's account of these characteristic features of "the modern mind" within the context of Jurgen Habermas remarkably congenial The Philosophical Discourse of Modernity.
In successive chapters, I next provide detailed analyses of Eliot's account of the discursive and functional integrity of art, literature, poetry, and criticism. By way of providing additional support for the concept of "integrity," and indicating its relevance to contemporary debates about the relationship between literature, criticism, and philosophy, I advert to the work of a number of other contemporary philosophers, John Searle, Goran Hermeren, Monroe Beardsley, Peter Lamarque, Paisley Livingston, and Richard Shusterman chief among them. I then demonstrate that Eliot's critique of the hypostatizing and levelling tendencies of many of his predecessors and contemporaries can itself legitimately be brought to bear on the similar practices of contemporary postmoderns such as Jacques Derrida and Richard Rorty.
I conclude by suggesting that a return to Eliot's literary critical corpus is both timely and instructive, for it provides a much-needed corrective to some late twentieth-century trends in literary studies, and, in particular, to the influence of philosophical postmodernism upon it.

Full textDeSisto, John. "Nietzsche: A Response to Kant's Sundering of the World." Thesis, Boston College, 2003. http://hdl.handle.net/2345/430.
Full textFriedrich Nietzsche is one of the most revolutionary and influential philosophers of post-Romantic Germany. He called into question ancient habits of mind and ingrained moral prejudices prevalent in European culture since the rise of Christendom. The intellectual and popular communities, in Germany and Europe at large, primarily disregarded Nietzsche's work until after his death. However, contemporary continental thinkers have been greatly influenced by Nietzsche and his provocative rhetoric. Nietzsche's work is particularly remarkable in light of his upbringing and childhood experiences. The scion of a long line of Lutheran ministers, Nietzsche mounted a critique of traditional piety and religious institutions that was unprecedented in its force and insight. Nietzsche came from an intellectual family and was inspired by the considerable efforts of earlier German thinkers. In general, the development and articulation of any philosopher's ideas are dependent on the environment in which he or she exists. For this reason, and to gain a better understanding of Nietzsche's personality, this study will place great emphasis on the biographical information pertaining to both Nietzsche and other German thinkers who influenced him. It is impossible to fully understand the position and concerns of philosophers like Nietzsche and Kant without first delving into their childhood and education. In the case of Nietzsche, a whole tradition of German intellectualism affected his view of the world and the ideas that he adopted and later reshaped into a penetrating examination of the foundations of Western European culture
