Een hoorcollege over verlichtingsfilosofie in multidisciplinair en hedendaags perspectief

In deze serie hoorcolleges worden de verschillende aspecten van de Verlichting belicht en in verband gebracht met hedendaagse problemen en debatten. De zeven deskundigen benaderen het onderwerp vanuit diverse disciplines: historisch, economisch, religieus, sociaal en juridisch. Dit levert...

Ger Groot Moderne Franse filosofen
Een hoorcollege over Franse denkers in de 20e eeuw
Franse filosofen hebben gedurende de hele twintigste eeuw een groot stempel gedrukt op de Europese en Amerikaanse cultuur. Niet alleen als academische denkers, maar ook als publieke figuren die de journalistiek en literatuur gebruikten om hun inzichten op een toegankelijke manier een brede verspreiding te geven. Jean-Paul Sartre, misschien wel de intellectueel van de 20e eeuw, was daar het bekendste voorbeeld van, maar ook Albert Camus, Raymond Aron, Michel Foucault en de van oorsprong Bulgaarse...

Jacob Slavenburg, John van Schaik Hermes Trismegistus
Hermopolis, Florence, Leuven, Amsterdam
Hermes Trismegistus, de mythische, centrale figuur in het hermetisme, is niet weg te denken uit onze Europese cultuurgeschiedenis. Hij speelde een belangrijke rol in het denken van onder andere Coornhert, Lipsius, Simon Stevin en Plantijn. Newton en Boerhaave schreven vol lof over hem. Al deze 'vaderen der moderne wetenschap' zagen in Hermes een van de oerwijzen der mensheid. Wie is Hermes Trismegistus? In dit boek wordt de lezer meegenomen in de geschiedenis van de hermetica, vanaf de oorsprong...

Henri Oosthout Het schandaal van de filosofie
hoofdlijnen van het sceptische denken van de oudheid tot heden
Henri Oosthout toont ons in Het schandaal van de filosofie wat filosofische scepsis betekent: het is een twijfel, een opschorting van oordeel op beredeneerde gronden. De lezer wordt in dit magistrale standaardwerk over het scepticisme meegenomen in de ontwikkeling van deze traditie. Het schandaal van de filosofie is niet alleen een formidabele filosofische canon; het is ook een pleidooi voor het behoud van filosofische lichtvoetigheid en het vermogen tot (zelf-)relativering. Een nieuwe, verkorte...

Victor M. Salas Immanent transcendence
Francisco Suárez’s doctrine of being
Long considered one of late scholasticism's most important thinkers, Francisco Suárez has, paradoxically enough, often been treated only in relation to other medieval authors or as a transitional figure in the shift from medieval to early modern philosophy. As such, his thought has often been obscured and framed in terms of an alien paradigm. This book seeks to correct such approaches and examines Suárez's metaphysical thinking as it stands on its own. Suárez is shown to be much more in line with...

Summistae
the commentary tradition on Thomas Aquinas’ Summa Theologiae from the 15th to the 17th centuries
Thomas Aquinas' Summa theologiae is one of the classics in the history of theology and philosophy. Beyond its influence in the Middle Ages, its importance is also borne out by the fact that it became the subject of commentary. During the sixteenth century it was gradually adopted as the official text for the teaching of scholastic theology in most European Catholic universities. As a result, university professors throughout Europe and the colonial Americas started lecturing and producing commentaries...

Ioannis Papachristou John Philoponus on Physical Place
This book examines the place of physical bodies, a major topic of natural philosophy that has occupied philosophers since antiquity. Aristotle's conceptions of place (topos) and the void (kenon), as expounded in the Physics, were systematically repudiated by John Philoponus (ca. 485-570) in his philosophical commentary on that work. The primary philosophical concern of the present study is the in-depth investigation of the concept of place established by Philoponus, putting forward the claim that...

Peter de Rivo on chronology and the calendar
Peter de Rivo (c.1420-1499), a renowned philosopher active at the University of Leuven, is today mostly remembered for his controversial role in the quarrel over future contingents (1465-1475). Much less known are his contributions to historical chronology, in particular his attempts to determine the dates of Christ's birth and death. In 1471, Peter made an original contribution to this long-standing discussion with his Dyalogus de temporibus Christi, which reconciles conflicting views by rewriting...

Magdalena Bieniak The soul-body problem at Paris, ca. 1200-1250
Hugh of St-Cher and his contemporaries
The soul-body problem was among the most controversial issues discussed in 13th century Europe, and it continues to capture much attention today as the quest to understand human identity becomes more and more urgent. What made the discussion about this problem particularly interesting in the scholastic period was the tension between the traditional dualist doctrines and a growing need to affirm the unity of the human being. This debate is frequently interpreted as a conflict between the 'new' philosophy,...

Platonic stoicism, Stoic Platonism
the dialogue between Platonism and Stoicism in antiquity

Several renowned specialists in the fields of Stoic and Platonic analyse the intricate mutual influences between Stoic and Platonic philosophers in the Hellenistic period, the Imperial Age, and after. Although it has been repeatedly claimed that the phenomenon addressed in this book could best be labelled eclecticism, it emerges from the various articles collected...
