From Onomatodoxy To Aesthetics: Aleksei Losev'S Concept Of Symbol

de Teresa Obolevitch

~~286,20€~~ 257,58€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 In From Onomatodoxy to Aesthetics: Aleksei Losev's Concept of Symbol, Teresa Obolevitch analyzes the category of symbol in broad historical and philosophical context, with a focus on Losev's exploration of symbol over his prolific and tragic career. A survivor of the Stalinist camps, Losev is recognized as the "last classic" of Russian Silver Age philosophy. This book addresses Losev's critical role within the divisive debate over onomatodoxy (imiaslavie), or the divine name, which occupied the minds of Russian thinkers in the early nineteenth century. Obolevitch presents the ancient and patristic roots of onomatodoxy and elucidates its importance for Losev's work in a range of fields, including aesthetics, mathematics, philosophy of language, and religion. Losev's work revolves around the possibility of expressing reality in language and his conception of symbol reflects both the apophatic aspect of Logos, as well as the possibility for new interpretations of reality.

Antinomy And Symbol: Pavel Florensky'S Philosophy Of Discontinuity

de Andrea Oppo

~~218,63€~~ 196,77€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Pavel Florensky (1882-1937) was a Russian philosopher, theologian, and scientist. He was considered by his contemporaries to be a polymath on a par with Pascal or Da Vinci. This book is the first comprehensive study in the English language to examine Florensky's entire philosophical oeuvre in its key metaphysical concepts. For Florensky, antinomy and symbol are the two faces of a single issue-the universal truth of discontinuity. This truth is a general law that represents, better than any other, the innermost structure of the universe. With its original perspective, Florensky's philosophy is unique in the context of modern Russian thought, but also in the history of philosophy per se.

Socrates In Russia

242,48€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This volume explores the influence of the Socratic legacy in the Russian, East European, and Soviet contexts. For writers, philosophers, and artists, Socrates has served as a potent symbol-of the human capacity for philosophical reflection, as well as the tumultuous (and often dangerous) reality in which Russian-speaking and Soviet intellectuals found themselves. The thirteen chapters include surveys of historical periods and movements (the 18th century, Nietzscheanism, and the "Greek Renaissance" of Russian culture), studies of individual writers and philosophers (Skovoroda, Herzen, Dostoevsky, Rozanov, Bely, Narbut, and many others), and investigations of Socratic subtexts (e.g., in Bulgakov's Master and Margarita and Nosov's Neznaika series for children). The volume concludes with a "Socratic Texts" section of new translations. The plurality of these topics demonstrates the continued relevance of the Socratic myth not only for Russian-speaking culture, but for the world.

Theory Of Religious Cycles - Tradition, Modernity, And The Baha'I Faith

de Mikhail Sergeev

117,93€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 In Theory of Religious Cycles: Tradition, Modernity and the Baha'i Faith Mikhail Sergeev offers a new interpretation of the Soviet period of Russian history as a phase within the religious evolution of humankind by developing a theory of religious cycles, which he applies to modernity and to all the major world faiths of Judaism, Buddhism, Christianity, and Islam. Sergeev argues that in the course of its evolution religion passes through six common phases-formative, orthodox, classical, reformist, critical, and post-critical. Modernity, which was started by the European Enlightenment, represents the critical phase of Christianity, a systemic crisis that could be overcome with the appearance of new religious movements such as the Baha'i Faith, which offers a spiritual extension of the modern worldview.
