Tira la piedra y esconde la mano
Siempre pasa igual. Alguien dice algo, la persona afectada se molesta, se distancia y luego que pasa el tiempo se diluyen los motivos que generaron el agravio. De ahí, también, que arrecharse sea una debilidad. jueves, 24 de junio de 2010

PHILOSOPHICAL METHOD
To present the main figures of Ancient philosophy through a model of reconstruction first developed by Th. Kuhn concerning evolution of science: through paradigms of philosophical thinking; to foster students’ skills for interpretation of Ancient texts, analysing concept development, and making reasonable generalizations about the history of philosophy.
Time and again the problems of methodology become peak-important for philosophy. One reason for this is that the concept of method is inherent to the very concept of philosophy as such. This course offers two optional tracks of investigation: history of philosophical method in Antiquity and analysis of contemporary methods. Both begin with explication of the concept of method, then taking up a different direction. Reading anew Plato, Aristotle and the Sceptics within the first one throws light on many up-to-date issues, like the relationship between logic and mathematics, the role of linguistic and social conventions in knowledge and reasoning, the importance of memory knowledge and the consequences of relativism.
· What is philosophy? What is method? What is philosophical method?
· Paradigms of European philosophical thinking: ontological, mentalistic and linguistic. The Ancient philosophy as ontological paradigm.
· Plato’s philosophical method: the Meno - critical discussion/cross-questioning.
· Plato’s philosophical method: the middle dialogues, the Republic books V – VII - dialectic and intuition.
· Aristotle on the method: Analitica Posterior – logic and empirical enquiry.
· Aristotle on the method: Topica - dialectic.
· The ancient skepticism: Sextus Empiricus, Outlines of Pyrrhonism.
MEANING AND TRUTH
To the end of the course the students should be better acquainted with the main 20th century theories; the course aims at raising students’ analytical skills, in application to concrete philosophical puzzles posed by the texts discussed.
The nature of meaning and the terms in which it is to be analysed have interested philosophers of the last 100 very intensively. What is the ultimate meaning bearer – words, sentences or persons, and why does such a close relation between meaning and truth exist? Are our semantic intuitions more basic than those about truth, and how are we doing things by words? These and other questions of contemporary philosophy of language are the main content of the course.
· Philosophy of language as a theory of meaning. The connection between meaning and truth.
· The picture theory of meaning: Wittgenstein and his Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus.
· Another version of realistic semantics: Alfred Tarski.
· The holistic theory of meaning: W. v. O. Quine.
· Intentionalist semantics: H. P. Grice.
· Further pragmaticism in semantics: J.Austine
· Truth and Meaning in an anti-realist perspective: D. Davidson.
CONTINENTAL PHILOSOPHY
To introduce the students to the views of some of the most prominent representatives of the contemporary philosophy. To outline the specific features of the current European philosophy in comparison with the philosophical ideas in Modernity. To identify the importance of the Continental tradition for the contemporary humanities and social science.
An attempt will be made to cover the basic ideas of the most prominent 20th century European philosophers following the non-analytical approach to philosophy. Their teachings will be correlated to the most urgent issues of the contemporary, social, political, and moral life.
