Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Angeregt von Freunden und Kollegen, legte Ernst Cassirer 1944 im amerikanischen Exil mit dem Essay on Man eine komprimierte und zugleich überarbeitete Fassung seiner Kulturphilosophie vor, in der er die dreibändige Philosophie der symbolischen Formen in ihren Hauptgedanken fortführt. Dabei wird der wohl wichtigste Bestandteil der Cassirerschen Kulturphilosophie, die Idee der Humanität, thematisiert und zusammenfassend begründet. Mit Bezugnahme auf das komplexe und vielschichtige Gefüge von Sprache, Mythos, Religion, Kunst, Geschichte und Wissenschaft bestimmt Cassirer den Menschen als »animal symbolicum«, als ein Wesen, das Symbole schafft und sich durch Symbole verständigt. Dank seiner klaren, verständlichen Sprache und Argumentationsstruktur ermöglicht der »Essay on Man« nicht nur dem philosophischen Fachpublikum, sondern auch einem weiteren Kreis interessierter Leser den Zugang zu Cassirers Denken. Er darf somit als allgemeine Einführung in die Philosophie Cassirers verstanden werden. Inhalt: Part I. What is man? I. The Crisis in Man's Knowledge of Himself II.

Download or read book Lacan and Cassirer written by Antoine Mooij and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-09-11 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Neo-Kantian philosopher Cassirer and the psychoanalyst Lacan are two key figures in the so-called medial turn in philosophy: the notion that any form of access to reality is mediated by symbols (images, words, signifiers). This explains why the theories of both philosophers merit a description in their own unique idioms, as well as having their respective basic tenets compared. It will be argued that, rather surprisingly, these tenets turn out be complementary - actually correcting each other – based on their shared notion of man as an animal symbolicum. Its fruitfulness will be substantiated for a limited number of topics within the humanities: perception, language, politics and ethics, and mental disorder, all to be considered from this perspective.

Download or read book Cassirer written by Samantha Matherne and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2021-04-25 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ernst Cassirer (1874–1945) occupies a unique place in 20th-century philosophy. His view that human beings are not rational but symbolic animals and his famous dispute with Martin Heidegger at Davos in 1929 are compelling alternatives to the deadlock between 'analytic' and 'continental' approaches to philosophy. An astonishing polymath, Cassirer's work pays equal attention to mathematics and natural science but also art, language, myth, religion, technology, and history. However, until now the importance of his work has largely been overlooked. In this outstanding introduction Samantha Matherne examines and assesses the full span of Cassirer’s work. Beginning with an overview of his life and works she covers the following important topics: Cassirer’s neo-Kantian background Philosophy of mathematics and natural science, including Cassirer’s first systematic work, Substance and Function, and subsequent works, like Einstein’s Theory of Relativity The problem of culture and the ground-breaking The Philosophy of Symbolic Forms Cassirer’s ethical and political thought and his diagnosis of fascism in The Myth of the State Cassirer’s influence and legacy. Including chapter summaries, suggestions for further reading, and a glossary of terms, this is an ideal introduction to Cassirer’s thought for anyone coming to his work for the first time. It is essential reading for students in philosophy as well as related disciplines such as intellectual history, art history, politics, and literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hartung works out both the linguistic and philosophy of language setting as well as socio-political and cultural implications of the radical critique of language developed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries by philosophers as diverse as Steinthal, Cohen, Simmel or Cassirer. He argues that the theories pleaded for a plurality of linguistic and cultural forms as well as for a new logic beyond the traditional nature/culture partition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mit diesem Band werden Cassirers 1935 in Oxford und 1942 in New Haven gehaltene Vorlesungen zur antiken Philosophie erstmals für Forschung und Studium zugänglich gemacht. Cassirer zeigt, wie sich in der griechischen Kultur ein neuer – ein theoretischer, philosophischer – Denkstil entfaltet, der den bis dahin vorherrschenden mythischen Denkstil ablöst. Die Vorlesungen richten sich an Philosophiestudierende und geben deshalb einen breiten, einführenden Überblick über die Denkentwicklung von den Ioniern über Platon und Aristoteles bis zu den Neuplatonikern. Sie behandeln aber auch Fragen und Begriffe, die nach Cassirers Auffassung bis ins 20. Jahrhundert hinein bedeutsam geblieben sind, weil auf ihnen das moderne wissenschaftliche wie philosophische Denken fußt. Zudem legt Cassirer Wert auf den Nachweis, dass die vielfältigen – neuen – philosophischen Begriffe in den Lehren der antiken Denker eine Einheit bilden, die von einem bestimmten Prinzip des Denkens getragen und bestimmt ist. Besonders interessant sind die Vorlesungen über Platon und Aristoteles. Cassirer schätzte Platons Ideenlehre sehr; darüber hinaus setzt er sich hier auch kritisch mit historischen Platonauslegungen auseinander. Die Vorlesung über Aristoteles wiederum stellt den einzigen größeren diesem Philosophen gewidmeten Text von Cassirers Hand dar.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Im Rahmen einer breiteren Neubewertung der neukantianischen Bewegung unternimmt dieses Buch die Aufgabe, Wilhelm Windelbands philosophische Bemühungen zu rekonstruieren. Windelbands philosophisches Programm konzentrierte sich auf die Synthese von zwei scheinbar gegensätzlichen Kräften: Transzendentalphilosophie und Geschichtsbewusstsein. Er besaß ein ausgeprägtes Bewusstsein für die dem historischen Denken innewohnenden Verwicklungen und die zwingende Notwendigkeit, die Transzendentalphilosophie im Sinne einer echten Geschichtsphilosophie neu zu formulieren. Diese konzeptionelle Entwicklung führt sein philosophisches Programm schließlich von seinen ursprünglichen neukantianischen Wurzeln weg und lässt eine neue Form des Neo-Hegelianismus entstehen.

Download or read book The Power of Distributed Perspectives written by Günter Abel and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2016-10-10 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do people and institutions manage to bring their different perspectives into an effective and productive interplay? How can we overcome obstacles for the creative potentials of distributed perspectives? Traditionally, the perspectives of people and institutions are considered to be fixed and isolated points of view. In such a picture, the perspectives seem determined in advance by positions and persons seem trapped within their perspectival horizons. In contrast, the new approach of this volume’s contributions focuses on the simple but fundamental fact that people (in their perceiving, speaking, thinking, and acting) always already refer to fellow human beings and coordinate their own perspectives with those of other persons and institutions. The contributions of the present volume concentrate on the structures, mechanisms, and dynamics of the interplays of different perspectives of interacting, communicating, and cooperating persons and institutions. The volume focuses on how the creative potentials as well as the organizational effectiveness of distributed perspectives can be set free.

This book was released on 1998 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zu Recht wird Ernst Cassirer (1874-1945) als der letzte Universalgelehrte des 20. Jahrhunderts bezeichnet. Während die heutige Philosophiegeschichtsschreibung kaum noch den Versuch unternimmt, große, zusammenhängende Linien zu entwerfen, sondern durch Spezialistentum gekennzeichnet ist, widmete sich Cassirer immer wieder der problemgeschichtlichen Durchdringung und Darstellung ganzer Epochen, so auch in diesem Buch von 1901, mit dem wir am Beginn seines geistigen Lebensweges stehen. Band 1 der "Hamburger Ausgabe" von Ernst Cassirers Werken macht jetzt die seit den zwanziger Jahren vergriffene, erste Monographie dieses profunden Kenners, Herausgebers und Kommentators der Texte von Leibniz endlich wieder verfügbar. In Leibniz' System in seinen wissenschaftlichen Grundlagen versucht Cassirer, die Gesamtheit der Leibnizschen Philosophie aus ihren Grundbedingungen heraus verständlich zu machen. Dabei tritt für ihn das mathematische Motiv der Systembildung an die erste Stelle. Eine solche Zusammenschau erscheint angesichts des universalistischen Grundcharakters der Leibnizschen Denkart keine einfache Aufgabe, denn "in der Betätigung an sämtlichen wissenschaftlichen Aufgaben und Problemen ringt Leibniz sich selbst zu seiner philosophischen Grundanschauung durch: nur aus der Allheit dieser Probleme läßt sich daher sachlich die Einheit des Systems rekonstruieren." In Auseinandersetzung mit der Methodenlehre Platons und Descartes' charakterisiert Cassirer zugleich Leibniz' Stellung in der Gesamtentwicklung des Idealismus. "Für das Verhältnis zu Kant ist die Abhandlung von Cassirer wegweisend geworden." (Wolfgang Bartuschat) Inhalt: Descartes' Kritik der mathematischen und naturwissenschaftlichen Erkenntnis, Die Grundbegriffe der Mathematik, Die Grundbegriffe der Mechanik, Die Metaphysik, Die Entstehung des Leibnizischen Systems. Leibniz' System in seinen wissenschaftlichen Grundlagen versucht, die Gesamtheit der Leibnizschen Philosophie aus ihren Grundbedingungen zu verstehen und abzuleiten. Dabei tritt das mathematische Motiv der Systembildung an die erste Stelle. Im Vergleich mit der Methodenlehre Platons und Descartes' wird zugleich Leibniz' Stellung in der Gesamtentwicklung des Idealismus charakterisiert.

Download or read book Nicholas of Cusa and the Making of the Early Modern World written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2019-01-14 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nicholas of Cusa and Early Modern Reform sheds new light on Cusanus’ relationship to early modernity by focusing on the reform of church, the reform of theology, the reform of perspective, and the reform of method – which together aim to encompass the breadth and depth of Cusanus’ own reform initiatives. In particular, in examining the way in which he served as inspiration for a wide and diverse array of reform-minded philosophers, ecclesiastics, theologians, and lay scholars in the midst of their struggle for the renewal and restoration of the individual, society, and the world, our volume combines a focus on Cusanus as a paradigmatic thinker with a study of his concrete influence on early modern thought. This volume is aimed at scholars working in the field of late medieval and early modern philosophy, theology, and history of science. As the first Anglophone volume to explore the early modern reception of Nicholas of Cusa, this work will provide an important complement to a growing number of companions focusing on his life and thought.

Book excerpt: The “THINKING: Bioengineering of Science and Art” is to discuss about philosophical aspects of thinking at the context of Science and Art. External representations provide evidence that the fundamental process of thinking exists in both animal subjects and humans. However, the diversity and complexity of thinking in humans is astonishing because humans have been permitted to integrate scientific accounts into their accounts and create excellent illustrations for the effects of this integration. The book necessarily begins with the origins of human thinking and human thinking into self and others, body, and life. Multiple factors tend to modify the pattern of thinking. They all will come into play by this book that brings thinking into different disciplines: humanities, natural sciences, social sciences, formal sciences, and applied sciences. The thinking demands full processing of information, and therefore, the book considers the economy of thinking as well. The book thoroughly intends to explore thinking beyond the boundaries. Specifically, several chapters are devoted to discipline this exploration either by artistic thinking alone or by art and mathematics-aided engineering of complexities. In this manner, the book models variations on thinking at the individual and systems levels and accumulates a list of solutions, each good for specific scenarios and maximal outcomes.

Download or read book Continental Divide written by Peter E. Gordon and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2012-04-02 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the spring of 1929, Martin Heidegger and Ernst Cassirer met for a public conversation in Davos, Switzerland. They were arguably the most important thinkers in Europe, and their exchange touched upon the most urgent questions in the history of philosophy: What is human finitude? What is objectivity? What is culture? What is truth? Over the last eighty years the Davos encounter has acquired an allegorical significance, as if it marked an ultimate and irreparable rupture in twentieth-century Continental thought. Here, in a reconstruction at once historical and philosophical, Peter Gordon reexamines the conversation, its origins and its aftermath, resuscitating an event that has become entombed in its own mythology. Through a close and painstaking analysis, Gordon dissects the exchange itself to reveal that it was at core a philosophical disagreement over what it means to be human. But Gordon also shows how the life and work of these two philosophers remained closely intertwined. Their disagreement can be understood only if we appreciate their common point of departure as thinkers of the German interwar crisis, an era of rebellion that touched all of the major philosophical movements of the dayÑlife-philosophy, philosophical anthropology, neo-Kantianism, phenomenology, and existentialism. As Gordon explains, the Davos debate would continue to both inspire and provoke well after the two men had gone their separate ways. It remains, even today, a touchstone of philosophical memory. This clear, riveting book will be of great interest not only to philosophers and to historians of philosophy but also to anyone interested in the great intellectual ferment of Europe's interwar years.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public administration seeks to develop a comprehensive understanding of the internal structure and functioning of government, in all its complexity, and its interaction with society and its citizens. Public Administration: The Interdisciplinary Study of Government provides an account of the discipline, considering its history, growth, boundaries, and tunderlying assumptions. It tracks the emergence of the field against a background of the expanding conception of the state and the growth of public services, and situates it within the three branches of knowledge - natural sciences, social sciences, and humanities. It maps out the sources of knowledge of public administration, and how this is fragmented within the discipline's specializations, the social sciences, and government and society at large. It examines how leading authors map the discipline, the application of different theories, the associated schools of thought and intellectual debates, and the role of knowledge integration. Scholars in public administration have initiated much debate as to whether it should be treated as a science, a craft or profession, or an art. This book argues that to develop a comprehensive understanding of government and its complexity requires a truly interdisciplinary approach.
