Neuroaesthetics - Can Science Explain Art?

de Marco Pina, Olga Pombo e Silvia Di Marco

22,00€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

receba amanhã -

portes grátis

DISPONÍVEL

 Por que razão criam os homens obras de arte? Por que razão a beleza nos comove? A Neuroestética é uma área de investigação recente que tenta responder a estas questões, a partir do quadro teórico da Neurologia. Ela explora as bases neurofisiológicas e evolutivas da experiência estética, no que diz respeito à produção e fruição das obras de arte e da beleza. Nesse sentido, oferece um lugar de encontro privilegiado e peculiar entre a Ciência e a Arte. Geralmente acusada de reducionismo, a Neuroestética é um campo de investigação controverso que desafia a nossa concepção de Arte enquanto uma das formas mais sublimes da criatividade humana. Este livro oferece uma introdução crítica à Neuroestética e pretende contribuir para o debate actual sobre o valor filosófico e epistemológico desta disciplina e sobre a sua relevância para a compreensão da experiência estética. Nele se incluem três artigos fundadores, escritos por eminentes neurocientistas, e cinco trabalhos originais que foram apresentados num workshop internacional sobre Neuroestética, organizado, em Março de 2009, pelo Centro de Filosofia das Ciências da Universidade de Lisboa.

Educação Sociedade & Culturas 59 - Tecnologias digitais e educação escolar em contexto de pandemia (Covid-19)

14,00€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

receba amanhã

DISPONÍVEL

 A pandemia Covid-19, e a consequente exigência de isolamento social, causou efeitos avassaladores em todo o mundo e em todas as áreas da sociedade. No campo da educação, de acordo com relatórios da UNESCO (2020), mais de 1,5 bilhões de estudantes foram afetados/as pelo encerramento de escolas e universidades. Foi a maior interrupção na história da educação escolar (Engzell et al., 2020) e o recurso às tecnologias digitais tornou-se essencial para enfrentar as emergências da pandemia. Contudo, este número também contribui para, em coletivo, podermos fazer o que Cynthia Selin (2008) considera ser a produção de conhecimento antecipatório, prestando atenção ao modo como socialmente lidamos com acontecimentos disruptivos e de incerteza, mas sobretudo como nos podemos tornar cada vez mais capazes de contruir de forma colaborativa cenários futuros. Será este, talvez, um dos grandes estímulos deste número, o de como nos responsabilizamos pelo futuro possível para as próximas gerações, influenciando também as próprias respostas sociotécnicas.

Thus Spoke Zarathustra

de Friedrich Nietzsche

12,86€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

receba amanhã

DISPONÍVEL

 Friedrich Nietzsche’s most accessible and influential philosophical work, misquoted, misrepresented, brilliantly original and enormously influential Nietzsche was one of the most revolutionary and subversive thinkers in Western philosophy, and Thus Spoke Zarathustra remains his most famous and influential work. It describes how the ancient Persian prophet Zarathustra descends from his solitude in the mountains to tell the world that God is dead and that the Superman, the human embodiment of divinity, is his successor. Nietzsche’s utterance ‘God is dead’, his insistence that the meaning of life is to be found in purely human terms, and his doctrine of the Superman and the will to power were all later seized upon and unrecognisably twisted by, among others, Nazi intellectuals. With blazing intensity and poetic brilliance, Nietzsche argues that the meaning of existence is not to be found in religious pieties or meek submission to authority, but in an all-powerful life force: passionate, chaotic and free.

Humankind - A Hopeful History

de Rutger Bregman

12,86€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

receba amanhã

DISPONÍVEL

 It's a belief that unites the left and right, psychologists and philosophers, writers and historians. It drives the headlines that surround us and the laws that touch our lives. From Machiavelli to Hobbes, Freud to Dawkins, the roots of this belief have sunk deep into Western thought. Human beings, we're taught, are by nature selfish and governed by self-interest. Humankind makes a new argument: that it is realistic, as well as revolutionary, to assume that people are good. By thinking the worst of others, we bring out the worst in our politics and economics too. In this major book, internationally bestselling author Rutger Bregman takes some of the world's most famous studies and events and reframes them, providing a new perspective on the last 200,000 years of human history. From the real-life Lord of the Flies to the Blitz, a Siberian fox farm to an infamous New York murder, Stanley Milgram's Yale shock machine to the Stanford prison experiment, Bregman shows how believing in human kindness and altruism can be a new way to think - and act as the foundation for achieving true change in our society. It is time for a new view of human nature.

In the epic sweep of history, how does our biology affect the arc of war and peace, justice and persecution? How have our brains evolved alongside our cultures?This is the exhilarating story of human morality and the science underpinning the biggest question of all: what makes us human?
