Libros de filosofía, página 18 de 1666

Come gia dichiara il titolo, Cacciari intende volgere lo sguardo a quel "cominciamento" che e il problema del pensiero filosofico. A questa inattualita nel porre il problema di sempre della filosofia corrisponde una novita perentoria nella articolazione della forma, che abbraccia i tre modi della scrittura filosofica: il dialogo (l''ironia, la ricerca), il trattato (la sistematicita), il parergon (la frammentazione aforistica). Da questi tratti apparira evidente una voluta arcaicita dell''architetura formale, che implica una vis polemica contro ogni discorso filosofico rassegnato all''inerzia. Qui, al contrario, si riconosce che il pensiero filosofico non puo che riproporsi le domande del Parmenide platonico.

Esta obra aproxima al lector a los conceptos de acción, ética y racionalidad práctica tomando como eje de articulación el análisis del modo en que los clásicos de la historia de la filosofía, desde Platon hasta Donald Davidson, han reflexionado sobre ellos. Se abordan asi problemas vinculados con la explicacion y narracion de la accion al igual que con la relacion entre la razon y los deseos o entre la accion, la felicidad y la virtud. Y se analiza tambien el sentido de la libertad y la autonomia, la distincion entre las acciones y los eventos de la naturaleza, la manera en que deben ser comprendidos la responsabilidad, el mal y el progreso moral, o incluso las complejas relaciones entre la razon practica y la revelacion divina. Con todo ello se proporciona una mirada lo mas completa posible y desde diversas perspectivas sobre un problema central para la filosofia desde sus inicios.

What makes a living system a living system? What kind of biological phenomenon is the phenomenon of cognition? These two questions have been frequently considered, but, in this volume, the authors consider them as concrete biological questions. Their analysis is bold and provocative, for the authors have constructed a systematic theoretical biology which attempts to define living systems not as objects of observation and description, nor even as interacting systems, but as self-contained unities whose only reference is to themselves. The consequence of their investigations and of their living systems as self-making, self-referring autonomous unities, is that they discovered that the two questions have a common answer: living systems are cognitive systems, and living as a process is a process of cognition. The result of their investigations is a completely new perspective of biological (human) phenomena. During the investigations, it was found that a complete linguistic description pertaining to the a organization of the livinga (TM) was lacking and, in fact, was hampering the reporting of results. Hence, the authors have coined the word a autopoiesisa (TM) to replace the expression a circular organizationa (TM). Autopoiesis conveys, by itself, the central feature of the organization of the living, which is autonomy.

Vi sono, nella storia del pensiero, concetti fondamentali che illuminano o adombrano, con il loro profilo, tutti gli altri. Uno di questi e la verita. Le definizioni che ne vengono date, le connotazioni che riceve, le trasformazioni cui e sottoposto rivelano gli atteggiamenti delle diverse epoche storiche nei confronti del mondo e di tutto cio che e. Attraverso una minuziosa interpretazione del mito della caverna Heidegger mostra che con Platone l''idea di verita subisce un mutamento essenziale, e che tale mutamento segna l''inizio di un destino dal quale l''umanita e condotta, volente o nolente, fino alla tecnica moderna.

Can we learn without knowing we are learning? To what extent is our behavior influenced by things we fail to perceive? What is the relationship between conscious and unconscious cognition? Implicit Learning: 50 Years On tackles these key questions, fifty years after the publication of Arthur Rebers seminal text. Providing an overview of recent developments in the field, the volume considers questions about the computational foundations of learning, alongside phenomena including conditioning, memory formation and consolidation, associative learning, cognitive development, and language learning.Featuring contributions from international researchers, the book uniquely integrates Western thinking on implicit learning with insights from a rich Russian research tradition. This approach offers an excellent opportunity to contrast perspectives, to introduce new experimental paradigms, and to contribute to ongoing debates about the very nature of implicit learning.Implicit Learning: 50 Years On is essential reading for students and researchers of consciousness, specifically those interested in implicit learning.

Al cuidado de Roberto R. Aramayo y en coedición con Círculo de Lectores, el Fondo protagoniza un acontecimiento editorial sin precedentes: la traducción al español de El mundo como voluntad y representacion, de Arthur Schopenhauer, que ahora ofrecemos al lector integramente en dos tomos: los Cuatro Libros y el Apendice que integraron la primera edicion de 1819 y las adiciones que incorporo el filosofo aleman en años posteriores, asi como los llamados Complementos, escritos 25 años despues.

El llibre que teniu a les mans és una miscel·lània de contribucions diverses. Les hem agrupat en dues parts. En la primera, trobareu un conjunt de textos eminentment acadèmics—molts d’ells, però, pen

The book covers Cantor's revolutionary thinking about infinity,which leads to the result that some infinities are bigger than others; time travel and free will, decision theory, probability, and the Banach-Tarski Theorem, which states that it is possible to decompose a ball into a finite number of pieces and reassemble the pieces so as to get two balls that are each the same size as the original. Its investigation of computability theory leads to a proof of Goedel's Incompleteness Theorem, which yields the amazing result that arithmetic is so complex that no computer could be programmed to output every arithmetical truth and no falsehood. Each chapter is followed by an appendix with answers to exercises. A list of recommended reading points readers to more advanced discussions. The book is based on a popular course (and MOOC) taught by the author at MIT.
