Verlag Peter Lang L'Expérience Chez Aristote: Aux Confins Des
Book SynopsisPar une analyse proprement philosophique, cet ouvrage se donne pour objectif de préciser la nature et la place de l'expérience dans l'épistémologie d'Aristote. Pour mener à bien cette entreprise, l'auteur a considéré la conception d'ensemble du savoir selon le Stagirite. Afin d'établir la nature de l'expérience, les différents degrés de perfection de la connaissance animale sont exposés: la sensibilité tactile, la prudence instinctive, l'apprentissage; par analogie, l'auteur se penche ensuite sur les différents degrés de perfection de la connaissance humaine à travers l'expérience (empeiria), l'art et la science, la sagesse. Pour décrire précisément le processus complexe de la formation de l'empeiria aristotélicienne, il étudie dans un second temps la nature de l'intellect humain et ses habitus, ainsi que le mode de connaissance des premiers principes des sciences. Une des originalités de cette étude réside dans le fait que pour mieux comprendre les sources, tout en adhérant à la perspective réaliste, l'auteur a non seulement recouru aux anciens commentateurs grecs, mais aussi aux grands commentateurs médiévaux, injustement ignorés dans les études actuelles.

Verlag Peter Lang L'Énigme Des Mathématiques: La Mathématisation Du
Book SynopsisUne énigme []: comment se fait-il que la mathématique, qui est un produit de la pensée humaine et indépendante de toute expérience, s'adapte d'une si admirable manière aux objets de la réalité?. Dans toute sa force, c'est une question proprement métaphysique que soulevait Albert Einstein: la mathématisation du réel, telle qu'inaugurée par Galilée, y atteint, par delà le mathématisable immédiat des quantités discrète et continue, le mathématisable profond de lois et de structures. Or celles-ci sont bien quelque chose de ce réel, mais quelque chose qui, du fait de la séparation du réel sensible grâce à laquelle la mathématique acquiert son autonomie, demande à y être situé. Mais si les succès de la mathématisation ont contribué de manière décisive à faire adopter, à la philosophie moderne, un primat de l'interrogation critique et, à la philosophie contemporaine, un primat de la considération du dire rationnel, ils leur en ont par là-même rendu l'entreprise, et la métaphysique elle-même, impensables. Pourtant, lue ligne à ligne et avec ces questions, la Métaphysique non pas l'essentialisme de l'aristotélisme scolaire s'avère utiliser une telle considération et développer une telle interrogation au service d'une analyse causale de ce qui est pris en tant qu'être. Celle-ci, convenablement actualisée, doit permettre de situer dans le réel, au niveau de son intelligibilité première, les quantités discrète et continue (livre I) et, au niveau de sa structure métaphysique, ses lois et structures mathématiquement exprimables (livre II). Du même coup, l'énigme s'avère un catalyseur très puissant pour la redécouverte de cette analyse et, par suite, pour une renaissance de la métaphysique.

Aiora Press In Pursuit of Pleasure
Book SynopsisGreek philosopher Epicurus defined philosophy as 'a daily business of speech and thought to secure happiness'. He believed happiness to be the goal of human life and thought it could be achieved by pursuing pleasure. However, the Epicurean philosophy was then and still is now often erroneously interpreted as promoting hedonism. Rather, Epicurus considered pleasure to be connected to virtue not excess or sensual self-indulgence. This volume contains Cyril Baileys masterly, classic translations of the most important surviving writing of Epicurus -- the Letter to Menoeceus, the Principal Doctrines and the Vatican Sayings -- and offers the contemporary reader a comprehensive overview of Epicurean ethics, his philosophy on what matters in life and how we should live.

Aiora Press On Happiness: Nicomachean Ethics
Book Synopsis?Happiness is not a comfortable state of well-being, but an energetic and carefully considered endeavour to lead a rich and meaningful life. Few books are so suited to stimulating critical thought about the good life as Aristotle?'s Nicomachean Ethics. What makes the Ethics so appealing is that Aristotle always remains realistic, in spite of his high ideals, and is constantly testing his views against those of others. In Book X of the Ethics, included in this volume, the great philosopher discusses what happiness [eudaimonia] is and how to achieve it. (BILINGUAL EDITION)

Museum Tusculanum Press Poetics: Aristotle
Book SynopsisIn many fields of knowledge Aristotle was and is today an outstanding figure. He possessed the acutest powers of observation and analysis, and he applied the systematic method of definition and classification to the study of biology, physics, logic, ethics, metaphysics and literature. His writings, however, at least in the form in which they have come down to us, are far from systematic in arrangement and far from clear in exposition. The discrepancy between his scientific method and his literary manner is probably to be explained on the hypothesis that the notes, on which his lectures at the Academy were based, were published in the form in which they were found after his death. The Poetics is a case in point. The arrangement of the argument is often haphazard. For example, a technical term is frequently used in one chapter and defined in a subsequent chapter; literary forms, such as tragedy and epic, are distinguished from one another, but the treatment of them is intermingled; and the summary of contents does not correspond in order to the unfolding of the argument. In consequence, the treatise is often confusing to the scholar and to the layman. In this version the text has been so rearranged that it makes the argument clear. The style of Aristotle is direct, concise and close to the ordinary speech of his day. The style of the translation by professor Hammond is intended to be similar. Aristotle''s method of exposition is marked in detail by some idioms of connection and arrangement which are alien to us. In the translation these idioms of exposition have been abandoned, and the normal practice of our day has been adopted.
