Critical Studies in German Idealism

Series Editor: Paul Cobben, Tilburg University

For more information please visit brill.nl/csgi ISSN 1878-9986

The series publishes volumes on the tradition of German Idealism in the broad sense. It is not only oriented to critical studies on the works of authors who belong to this tradition, but also to the later influence of these works. This means that the series pays attention both to the history of the reception of German Idealism, and to studies that provide in the systematic development of central themes that are formulated by this tradition.

The Aporia of Inner SenseThe Self-Knowledge of Reason and the Critique of Metaphysics in Kant

Garth W. Green

This work - the first full-length account of its theme in English - identifies Kant’s doctrine of inner sense as a central, and problematic, element within the ‘architectonic of pure reason’ of the first Critique. Its exegesis exposes two, variant construals of the character and capacities of inner sense: the first, ‘positive’ construal functions in Kant’s account of the nature of knowledge in the Transcendental Analytic, while the second, ‘negative’ construal functions in Kant’s account of the limits of knowledge in the Transcendental Dialectic. Green shows how this variance underlies, and destabilizes, the basic intention of Kant’s theoretical philosophy, to give an account of both the nature, and the limits, of cognition. The work complements detailed analysis with an exhaustive review of English, French, and German scholarship on the doctrine. An Appendix on Kant’s recently discovered ‘Vom inneren Sinne’ fragment evinces Kant’s continued concern with this doctrine, and a Conclusion intimates the importance of Fichte’s and Schelling’s identification of the ‘aporia of inner sense’ to the subsequent development of transcendental idealism.

Institutions of Education: then and todayThe Legacy of German Idealism

Edited by Paul Cobben

The theme of “Institutions of Education: then and today” not only corresponds with the basic questions raised in German Idealism, but is also central to the question of whether it is legitimate to study German Idealism in our era. Elaborating on this project immediately raises the problem of institutional differentiation, which characterizes multicultural society. Does the variety of educational institutions not, by definition, exclude the shared conception and realization of adulthood that is presupposed by German Idealism? This book shows that German Idealism can still participate in the contemporary debate on education: it is not only helpful in raising relevant questions, but can also be transformed into positions which can deal with the pluriformity that characterizes contemporary society.

God - Beyond MeFrom the I’s Absolute Ground in Hölderlin and Schelling to a Contemporary Model of a Personal God

Cia van Woezik

German idealism has attempted to think an absolute ground to self-conscious I-hood. As a result it has been theologically disqualified as pantheistic or even atheistic since many maintain that such a ground cannot be reconciled with a personal God. In the early writings of Friedrich Schelling (1775-1854), it is clear that he and his contemporaries were aware of this difficulty. His Tübinger fellow student, Friedrich Hölderlin (1770-1843), was convinced of the ultimate inadequacy of any philosophical system to grasp the unitary ground of all that is and turned to poetry. The metaphysical insights expressed in his poetry have been largely neglected in both philosophical and theological scholarship. Drawing on the 20th century metaphysics of Dieter Henrich and Karl Rahner, this book elaborates on Hölderlin’s poetry. This results in a novel concept of God as both unitary and personal ground of I-hood.

Human-Animal Studies

Edited by Kenneth Shapiro, Animals & Society Institute

For more information please visit brill.nl/has ISSN 1573-4226

The purview of the book series includes any topic that allows exploration of the relation between human and nonhuman animals in any setting, contemporary or historical, from the perspective of various disciplines within both the social sciences (e.g., psychology, sociology, anthropology, political science) and humanities (e.g., history, literary criticism). Among the broad areas included are: 1. applied uses of animals (research, education, medicine, agriculture), 2. animals in the popular culture (entertainment, companion animals, animal symbolism), 3. wildlife and the environment, 4. socio-political movements, public policy and the law.

Paper TigerA Visual History of the Thylacine

Carol Freeman

Images of animals generate perceptions that have a profound effect on attitudes toward species. Can representations contribute to their extinction? Paper Tiger considers the role of illustrations in the demise of the thylacine or Tasmanian ‘tiger’. It critiques 80 engravings, lithographs, drawings and photographs published between 1808 and 1936, paying attention to the messages they convey and their impact on the lives of animals. This approach challenges conventional histories, offers new understandings of human-animal interactions, and presents a chilling story of just how misleading and powerful visual representation can be. ‘ … this book is a remarkable achievement. Freeman writes thoughtfully, carefully and with force, and the book is a very good read’ (Nigel Rothfels, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee)

Animals and AgencyAn Interdisciplinary Exploration

Edited by Sarah E. McFarland and Ryan Hediger

While many scholars who write about animals deal with animal agency in some way, this volume is the first to position the question of nonhuman agency as the primary focus of inquiry. Section I presents studies of actual animals demonstrating agency; Section II moves agency into new terrain while considering key representations of animal agency in literature; Section III analyzes animals as mediators and as conveyances of human-to-human communication;and Section IV investigates the agency of beings who defy conventional species categories. The Envoi demonstrates how the microscopic polyp is interwoven into notions of agency and mythical superagency. This volume’s interdisciplinary explorations press hard on issues of agency to open up space for more questions about how we can understand relationships between the human and the nonhuman.

Speaking of AnimalsEssays on Dogs and Others

Terry Caesar

Speaking of Animals consists of a linked series of thirteen essays about subjects ranging from deciding to castrate a dog, evaluating recent dog memoirs, observing animals in Spain, reading about the training of big cats, watching Animal Planet, and being unable to kill a racoon in Texas. So often personal, even while analyzing novels such as Water for Elephants or movies such as Giant or Into the Wild, the essays offer both an implicit critique and a continuation of recent discursive trends in animal studies, whose language is too haplessly abstracted from the animals in whose name we humans strive to speak as well as narrate.

Animal Encounters

Edited by Tom Tyler and Manuela Rossini

The fast-growing field of Animal Studies is a varied and much contested domain. Engagement with animals has encouraged both collaboration and conflict between researchers within the arts, humanities, and social sciences. Animal Encounters comprises a series of meetings not only between diverse beasts, but also between distinct disciplinary methods, theoretical approaches, and ethical positions. The essays here collected come together from literary and cultural studies, sociology and anthropology, ecocriticism and art history, philosophy and feminism, science and technology studies, history and posthumanism, to study that most familiar and most foreign of creatures, ‘the animal’. These encounters between leading practitioners in the field highlight the promise and potential of interspecies exchange and mutual provocation.

Studies on the Interaction of Art, Thought and Power

Edited by H.-C. Günther In collaboration with Ivo De Gennaro, Paolo Fedeli, Arnd Kerkhecker and Harro von Senger

For more information please visit brill.nl/iatp ISSN 1877-0029

The present series aims at a multidimensional approach to the problem of the relationship between intellect and political power, i.e. it aims at collecting contributions from various disciplines such as philosophy, history, literary studies, theology, but natural science and legal studies as well. In particular it invites an intercultural approach and thus try to contribute to mutual understanding of different culural traditions in a world shaped by globalization and thus aims, by reflecting on our historical and cultural roots, to give a not purely eurocentric meaning to the latter term.

The European Image of God and ManA Contribution to the Debate on Human Rights

Edited by Hans-Christian Günther and Andrea A. Robiglio

Artists and Intellectuals and the Requests of Power

Edited by Ivo de Gennaro and Hans-Christian Günther

A much discussed question in classical studies is the comparison between the situation of poets in Augustan Rome and that of artists and intellectuals in the totalitarian regimes of the twentieth century. As instructive as this question proves to be for an understanding of the relation between the freedom of art and thinking on the one hand and power on the other, it also reveals the insufficiency of our present grasp of this crucial articulation of our humanity. This volume offers a multidisciplinary and comparative approach to the problem, complementing the historical perspective with a regard on Eastern traditions. It thus explores tentative paths for future research on an issue of critical importance for the shaping of the global world.• January 2009

It includes topics such as the problem of freedom and determinism in Islam, Buddhism and God, Indian Religions and the problem of religious diversity, polytheism and modernity, the problem of evil in Medieval Jewish philosophy, religious exclusivism and multiculturalism, Christianity and World Religions, the esoteric vs. exoteric in Western religions and the philosophy of modern religions.

Wittgenstein’s (misunderstood) religious thought

Earl Stanley B. Fronda

Wittgenstein’s religious thought is not well understood. And Wittgensteinian philosophy of religion is charged with fideism, religious non-realism, and even crypto-atheism. These charges, however, are borne of misunderstandings that are a result of the critics’ being oblivious of apophatic theology. This book is intended to help clear some of those misunderstandings and neutralize the above-mentioned charges. It argues that Wittgenstein’s religious thought shares kinship with the thought of apophaticists in Christendom such as the Pseudo-Dionysius and St. Thomas Aquinas. What appear to be fideism, non-realism, or crypto-atheism to the critics appear differently to those who see Wittgensteinian philosophy of religion from the apophaticists’ point of view--Wittgenstein’s religious point of view.

Notions of Nationhood in BengalPerspectives on Samaj, c. 1867-1905

Swarupa Gupta

This book reopens the debate on colonial nationalisms, going beyond ‘derivative’, ‘borrowed’, political and modernist paradigms. It introduces the conceptual category of samaj to demonstrate how indigenous socio-cultural origins in Bengal interacted with late-colonial discourses to produce the notion of a nation. Samaj (a historical society and an idea-in-practice) was a site for reconfiguring antecedents and negotiating fragmentation. Drawing on indigenous sources, this study shows how caste, class, ethnicity, region and community were refracted to conceptualise wider unities. The mapping of cultural continuities through change facilitates a more nuanced investigation of the ontology of nationhood, seeing it as related to, but more than political nationalism. It outlines a fresh paradigm for recalibrating postcolonial identities, offering interpretive strategies to mediate fragmentation.

The Idea of Creativity

Edited by Michael Krausz, Denis Dutton and Karen Bardsley

Seventeen philosophers, scientists and artists consider questions about the intriguing idea of creativity: Is creativity essentially mysterious? Is creativity essentially inspirational or rationalistic? What role does skill play in creativity? What are the criteria of creativity? Should we assign logical priority to creative persons, creative processes, or creative products? How do forms of creativity relate to different domains of human activity? How does creativity relate to self-transformation? How does our knowledge of the circumstances of creativity effect our appreciation of its products? Can a recipient of a creative work also be a creator of it?

Philosophical Studies in Science and Religion

Edited by F. LeRon Shults, University of Agder, Norway

For more information please visit brill.nl/pssr ISSN 1877-8542

Philosophical Studies in Science and Religion is a peer-reviewed book series that seeks to offer critical analyses of and constructive proposals for the interdisciplinary field of “science and religion”. The series will engage both material and methodological themes, focusing on the mediating role of philosophy in the late modern dialogue among scholars of science and religion.

God and the World of SignsTrinity, Evolution, and the Metaphysical Semiotics of C. S. Peirce

Andrew Robinson

Christianity has been described as “a religion seeking a metaphysic”. Drawing on the philosophy of C. S. Peirce, Robinson develops a metaphysical framework centred around a ‘semiotic model’ of the Trinity. The model invites a fresh approach to the claim that Jesus was the incarnate Word of God and suggests a new way of understanding how nature may bear the imprint of the Triune Creator in the form of ‘vestiges of the Trinity in creation’. Scientific spin-offs include a new perspective on the problem of the origin of life and a novel hypothesis about the evolution of human distinctiveness. The result is an original contribution to Trinitarian theology and a bold new way of integrating philosophy, science and religion.

Philosophy, Science and Divine Action

Edited by F. LeRon Shults, Nancey Murphy and Robert John Russell

One of the most important and controversial themes in the contemporary dialogue among scientists and Christian theologians is the issue of “divine action” in the world. This volume brings together contributions from leading scholars on this topic, which emerged out of the Scientific Perspectives on Divine Action project, co-sponsored by the Vatican Observatory and the Center for Theology and Natural Science. This multi-year collaboration involved over 50 authors meeting at five international conferences. The essays collected here demonstrate the pervasive role of philosophy in this dialogue.

Intentionality, Desire, ResponsibilityA Study in Phenomenology, Psychoanalysis and Law

Antoine Mooij

Recently, the predominance of natural sciences seems to have cast doubt on the legitimicy of the human sciences. Adopting a phenomenological and hermenutical point of view, this book is intended to contribute towards a justification of the human sciences, taking account of quintessentially human characteristics. The basic assumption is that man interprets his own experience and the wordl around him, yielding to the limitations imposed by language. Central themes are intentionality and causality, desire and lack, responsibility and loss of responsibility. Relevant domains are psychopathology and psychonalysis-following Lacan’s interpretation - and law. We shall draw upon the rich phenomenological traditions in these domains.

Michel Henry et l’affect de l’artRecherches sur l’esthétique de la phénoménologie matérielle

Edited by Adnen Jdey and Rolf Kühn

What is the status of art and aesthetic affectivity in Michel Henry ? Is the place occupied by art within the economy of his material phenomenology the most appropriate site for the immanent exploration of appearing and the auscultation of the transcendental affectivity of life ? This book provides a systematic inquiry into some remarkable points that make it necessary to prepare the ground for an Henryan aesthetics and make it sufficiently urgent to pay attention to it. In order to clear this path and to take the first rigorous steps in the direction it leads to, each one of the studies collected here, in its own unique way, examines the status of art in Michel Henry. The work hopes to open entirely new perspectives for the understanding of a phenomenological thinking of art whose radicality and fecundity is not yet fully appreciated.Quel est le statut de l’art et de l’affectivité esthétique chez Michel Henry ? Le champ occupé par l’art dans l’économie de sa phénoménologie matérielle est-il le lieu le plus propre pour l’exploration immanente de l’apparaître et l’auscultation de l’affectivité transcendantale de la vie ? Ce livre offre en effet un repérage systématique de quelques points remarquables à partir desquels le besoin de poser les jalons d’une esthétique henryenne se fait suffisamment pressant pour qu’on y prête attention. C’est pour frayer cette voie et faire rigoureusement les premiers pas dans la direction qu’elle infléchit, que les études ici réunies engagent, chacune à sa manière, l’examen du statut de l’art chez Michel Henry. L’ouvrage espère ouvrir par là des perspectives tout à fait neuves quant à la compréhension d’une pensée phénoménologique de l’art dont on ne mesure sans doute pas encore pleinement la radicalité et la fécondité.

Courageous VulnerabilityEthics and Knowledge in Proust, Bergson, Marcel, and James

Rosa Slegers

This work develops the ethical attitude of courageous vulnerability through the integration of Marcel Proust’s novel In Search of Lost Time and the philosophies of Henri Bergson, William James, and Gabriel Marcel. Central to the discussion is the phenomenon of involuntary memory, taken from common experience but “discovered” and made visible by Proust. Through the connection between a variety of themes from both Continental and American schools of thought such as Bergson’s phenomenological account of the artist, James’ “will to believe,” and Marcel’s “creative fidelity,” the courageously vulnerable individual is shown to take seriously the ethical implications of the knowledge gained from involuntary memories and similar “privileged moments,” and do justice to the “something more” which, though part of our experience of ourselves and others, escapes rigid philosophical analysis.

The Locus of Tragedy

Edited by Arthur Cools, Thomas Crombez, Rosa Slegers and Johan Taels

Ask for the tragic and Europe will answer. Leaving behind the philosophers’ enthusiasm of the nineteenth century, ‘tragedy’ and ‘the tragic’ now seem little more than vague containers. However, it appears that we still discover a tragic essence in our personal lives. Time and again tragedy is being registered, written down and staged. This book wants to open a contemporary philosophical perspective on the tragic. What is the locus of tragedy? Does it relate to metaphysics, the gods, destiny, and chance? Or is it a matter of ethics, of the Law and its transgression? Does man himself occupy the locus of tragedy, because of his unreasonable and boundless desires, as many philosophers have suggested? Is man today still able to account for his tragic condition? Or do we locate the tragic first and foremost in the esthetic imagination? Is not the theatrical genre of tragedy the locus authenticus of all things tragic? Is there more to the tragic than drama and play?

Philosophical and Cultural Theories of Music

Edited by Eduardo de la Fuente and Peter Murphy

Music is a ubiquitous and hard to grasp cultural form. It is semiotically and aesthetically open-ended; yet even a ‘non-musical’ person is able to follow the basics of rhythmic structure and flow. Its presence in social and cultural life is further complicated by its multiple forms of existence - as both ‘live’ and ‘technologically mediated’, as self-referential language and as accompaniment to text, dance and other cultural expressions. This collection brings together philosophers, sociologists, musicologists and students of culture who theorize the multiple roles of music through cultural practices as diverse as opera and classical music, jazz and pop, avant-garde and DIY musical cultures, music festivals and isolated listening through the iPod, rock in urban heritage and the piano in contemporary Asian societies.

Beyond Communication. A Critical Study of Axel Honneth’s Social Philosophy

Jean-Philippe Deranty

Few thinkers have made such significant contribution to social and political thinking over the last three decades as Axel Honneth. His theory of recognition has rejuvenated the political vocabulary and allowed Critical Theory to move beyond Habermas. Beyond Communication is the first full-scale study of Honneth’s work, covering the whole range of his writings, from his first sociological articles to the latest publications. By relocating the theory of recognition within the tradition of European social theory, the book exposes the full depth and breadth of Honneth’s philosophical intervention. The book will be an indispensable resource for anyone interested in contemporary philosophy and the social sciences.

Castoriadis: Psyche, Society, Autonomy

Jeff KloogerForeword by Dick Howard

This book is a critical exploration of the philosophical underpinnings and implications of Cornelius Castoriadis’ reflections on Being, society and the self. The book introduces the reader to the main concepts of Castoriadis’ work, but goes further to uncover the fundamental philosophical issues addressed by Castoriadis, and to critically examine the issues his work opens up, assessing and, where necessary, offering suggested amendments to the answers Castoriadis himself puts forward. Key conceptual problems addressed include the distinction between autonomy and heteronomy, the nature of the self and self-creation, and the nature of determination in a fundamentally indeterminate universe.

The Commentary of al-Nayrizi on Books II-IV of Euclid’s Elements of GeometryWith a Translation of That Portion of Book I Missing from MS Leiden Or. 399.1 but Present in the Newly Discovered Qom Manuscript Edited by Rüdiger Arnzen

Anthony Lo Bello

The Commentary of al-Nayrizi (circa 920) on Euclid’s Elements of Geometry occupies an important place both in the history of mathematics and of philosophy, particularly Islamic philosophy. It is a compilation of original work by al-Nayrizi and of translations and commentaries made by others, such as Heron. It is the most influential Arabic mathematical manuscript in existence and a principle vehicle whereby mathematics was reborn in the Latin West. Furthermore, the Commentary on Euclid by the Platonic philosopher Simplicius, entirely reproduced by al-Nayrizi, and nowhere else extant, is essential to the study of the attempt to prove Euclid’s Fifth Postulate from the preceding four. Al-Nayrizi was one of the two main sources from which Albertus Magnus (1193-1280), the Doctor Universalis, learned mathematics. This work presents an annotated English translation of Books II-IV and of a hitherto lost portion of Book I.

The Afterlife of the Platonic SoulReflections of Platonic Psychology in the Monotheistic Religions

Edited by Maha Elkaisy-Friemuth and John M. Dillon

Plato’s doctrine of the soul, its immaterial nature, its parts or faculties, and its fate after death (and before birth) came to have an enormous influence on the great religious traditions that sprang up in late antiquity, beginning with Judaism (in the person of Philo of Alexandria), and continuing with Christianity, from St. Paul on through the Alexandrian and Cappadocian Fathers to Byzantium, and finally with Islamic thinkers from Al-kindi on. This volume, while not aspiring to completeness, attempts to provide insights into how members of each of these traditions adapted Platonist doctrines to their own particular needs, with varying degrees of creativity.

Ancient Mediterranean and Medieval Texts and Contexts will concentrate on literary traditions in the ancient and medieval worlds and the significance of those traditions in philosophy, religion, culture, and history. From this vantage the series will focus more narrowly on topics such as Neoplatonic studies, on Philo of Alexandria, and on the impact these writings had in the ancient and medieval worlds. Key, too, will be how the volumes look at the influence of earlier writings upon later ones: for example, the significance of Euclid’s Geometry for the medieval commentator al-Nayrizi (d. ca. 922 C.E.) or how the writings attributed to Moses of the Hebrew Bible were reinterpreted to suit the purposes of Jewish historian/philosopher Philo of Alexandria.

Barhebraeus, Butyrum Sapientiae, PhysicsIntroduction, Edition, Translation, and Commentary

Jens Ole Schmitt, Goethe-Universität Frankfurt am Main

This volume offers the first critical edition and English translation of the Book of Physics of Barhebraeus’ (d. 1286) magnum opus, Butyrum Sapientiae. Barhebraeus’ text is not simply a Syriac translation of Aristotle or Avicenna; it offers some unexpected and un-Aristotelian views on time, motion, and inclination, thus adding various personal twists and turns to the work. For his Book of Physics Barhebraeus drew mainly on Arabic texts by Fakhr al-Din al-Razi, among them the as yet unedited al-Mulakhkhaṣ, and maybe in some instances the lost al-Jawhar. There are also some remarkable similarities with the late Neo-Platonic philosopher Damascius (6th ct.), especially in Barhebraeus’ treatment of time and motion, and also with Lucretius. Thus, the present volume argues, the Book of Physics was based on a variety of sources, which were re-arranged in a unique and very personal manner by Barhebraeus.

The Earliest Syriac Translation of Aristotle’s CategoriesText, Translation and Commentary

Daniel King, Cardiff University

Aristotle’s logic first became known in the Middle East through the medium of the Syriac language at a time prior to the rise of classical Arabic philosophy. The present volume makes available for the first time the earliest Syriac translation (sixth century AD) of the Categories, which is here edited together with an English translation, analytical commentary, glossaries and indices. The availability of such an important early work will enable the beginnings of the Semitic Aristotelian tradition to be studied more comprehensively. This will open the way to a better understanding of both the study of Aristotelian logic in Syriac and also of the significance of the Syriac tradition for the genesis and rise of Arabic logic.

Jewish Theatre: A Global View

Edited by Edna Nahshon

While a frequently used term, Jewish Theatre has become a contested concept that defies precise definition. Is it theatre by Jews? For Jews? About Jews? Though there are no easy answers for these questions, Jewish Theatre: A Global View, contributes greatly to the conversation by offering an impressive collection of original essays written by an international cadre of noted scholars from Europe, the United States, and Israel. The essays discuss historical and current texts and performance practices, covering a wide gamut of genres and traditions.

Traditions of Maimonideanism

Edited by Carlos Fraenkel

The goal of the present volume is to shed light on a number of traditions of Maimonideanism that have hitherto little been explored. Maimonides (1138 – 1204) was the most important medieval Jewish philosopher and also made lasting contributions to many other fields. The essays in the first part examine aspects of his work in medicine, Jewish law, and liturgy. The essays in the second part look at how Maimonides was read, misread, and creatively reinvented in a wide range of contexts in the East and in the West—from medieval Cairo to Crown Heights in Brooklyn. Written by a group of leading scholars, the essays illustrate the breadth of Maimonides’ work and the fascinating history of its reception from the 13th century to the present.

Prophetic Niche in the Virtuous City

The Concept of Hikmah in Early Islamic Thought

Hikmet Yaman, Ankara University

This book analyzes the concept of hikmah in early Islamic texts within a network of multiple conceptual interrelationships in the cross-disciplinary context of Muslim works, roughly up to al-Ghazali’s lifetime. The word hikmah has a wide spectrum of connotations in these texts, because it basically contains all knowledge within human reach, and accordingly, received a range of diverse scholarly treatments. This work contextualizes hikmah in a nuanced fashion in the collective usage of early Muslim authors, mainly by lexicographers, exegetes, philosophers, and Sufis. For the first time in the field of Arabic and Islamic Studies, particularly in Islamic Philosophy and Sufism, this study explores the concept of hikmah in an all-embracing capacity. Hikmah is a central concept of Islamic thinking, related to almost all intellectual disciplines of Muslim scholarly tradition, but it has been insufficiently underlined and treated in earlier western scholarship.

Relational Syllogisms and the History of Arabic Logic, 900-1900

Khaled El-Rouayheb, Harvard University

Relational inferences are a well-known problem for Aristotelian logic. This book charts the development of thinking about this anomaly, from the beginnings of the Arabic logical tradition in the tenth century to the end of the nineteenth. Based in large part on hitherto unstudied manuscripts and rare books, the study shows that the problem of relational inferences was vigorously debated in the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. In the course of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, Ottoman logicians (writing in Arabic) came to recognize relational inferences as a distinct kind of ‘unfamiliar syllogism’ and began to investigate their logic. These findings show that the development of Arabic logic did not - as is often supposed - come to an end in the fourteenth century. On the contrary, Arabic logic was still being developed by critical and fecund reflections as late as the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

Das Transzendentale bei Ibn SīnāZur Metaphysik als Wissenschaft erster Begriffs- und Urteilsprinzipien

Tiana Koutzarova, University of Bonn

Following al-Fārābī’s approach, Ibn Sīnā (d. 428/1037) undertakes a new foundation of the First Philosophy based on his own critical systematisation of the Aristotelian theory of science, yielding the result that metaphysics is only possible as a transcendental science, i.e. that not only the subject-matter of metaphysics and its properties but also the arguments by which the first principles of knowledge are defended must be transcendental. This book provides the first systematic reconstruction of Ibn Sīnā’s concept of metaphysics, and, given the considerable influence his achievement had on the Islamic tradition as well as on scholastic philosophers, it is relevant to the study of the history of metaphysics, Islamic theology (kalām), and Arabic philosophy.

Philosophia AntiquaA Series of Studies on Ancient Philosophy

Series Editor: Keimpe A. Algra, F.A.J. Haas, Mansfeld, C. Rowe, Douwe (David) Runia and Christian WildbergAdvisor: J.C.M. Winden

For more information please visit brill.nl/pha ISSN 0079-1687

From its foundation in the late forties, Philosophia Antiqua has been the premier series of monographs on the history of ancient philosophy in the scholarly world, covering all periods from the Presocratics to the later Neoplatonists. The series now emphasises areas that have been less well represented in past literature: Hellenistic philosophy, the Sceptical tradition, Galen and other non-Platonist authors of later antiquity. Alongside traditional text-orientated works (editions, translations, commentaries and analyses of particular texts and authors), the series offers a forum for works showing the interaction of ancient and modern topics of philosophical interest and between ancient and modern forms of philosophical analysis. Such less-traditional studies will no longer assume a thorough knowledge of ancient Greek and Latin on the part of the reader. Volumes are published in English, French and German. The series does not include Festschriften.

Proclus on NaturePhilosophy of Nature and Its Methods in Proclus’ Commentary on Plato’s Timaeus

Marije Martijn

Of Proclus’ immense philosophical system, the part concerning the natural world may well be the most fascinating. Traditional scholarship tends to downplay that part of Neoplatonism, in favour of idealism, but recently this attitude is changing. This study contributes to that development by showing how Proclus’ natural philosophy relates to theology, while remaining a science in its own right. Starting from his Commentary on Plato’s Timaeus, it presents a revision of Proclus’ metaphysics of nature and provides new insight into his surprisingly peripatetic philosophy of science, the role of mathematics, and the nature of discourse in natural philosophy. This book will be of interest both to students of the Platonic tradition, and to historians of natural science, metaphysics and epistemology.

Particulars in Greek PhilosophyThe seventh S.V. Keeling Colloquium in Ancient Philosophy

Edited by Robert W. Sharples

Ancient Greek philosophy has been criticised, for example by the late Bernard Williams, for emphasising the universal at the expense of the particular. Six leading scholars consider what the Greeks themselves, from Plato to the period of the Roman Empire, had to say on this issue in the contexts of ethics, psychology, metaphysics and cosmology. Ancient views are compared with modern ones, and the influence of the former on the latter is considered.

AëtianaThe Method and Intellectual Context of a Doxographer, Volume III, Studies in the Doxographical Traditions of Ancient Philosophy

J. Mansfeld and D.T. Runia

Ancient doxography, particularly as distilled in the work on problems of physics by Aëtius, is a vital source for our knowledge of early Greek philosophy up to the first century BCE. But its purpose and method, and also its wider intellectual context, are by no means easy to understand. The present volume contains 19 essays written between 1989 and 2009 in which the authors grapple with various aspects of the doxographical tradition and its main representatives. The essays examine the origins of the doxographical method in the work of Aristotle and Theophrastus and also provide valuable insights into the works of other authors such as Epicurus, Chrysippus, Lucretius, Cicero, Philo of Alexandria and Seneca. The collection can be read as a companion collection to the two earlier volumes of Aëtiana published by the two authors in this series (1997, 2009).

Dimitri Gutas

The short aporetic essay On First Principles by Theophrastus, thought to have been transmitted as his Metaphysics, is critically edited for the first time on the basis of all the available evidence—the Greek manuscripts and the medieval Arabic and Latin translations—together with an introduction, English translation, extensive commentary, and a diplomatic edition of the medieval Latin translation. This book equally contributes to Graeco-Arabic studies as ancilla of classical studies, and includes the first critical edition of the Arabic translation with an English translation and commentary, a detailed excursus on the editorial technique for Greek texts which medieval Arabic translations are extant as well as for the Arabic translations themselves, and a complete Greek and Arabic glossary as a blueprint for future lexica.

New Perspectives on Aristotle’s De caelo

Edited by Alan C. Bowen and Christian Wildberg

This volume is the first collection of scholarly articles in any modern language devoted to Aristotle’s De caelo. It grew out of series of workshops held at Princeton, Cambridge, and Paris in the late 1990’s. Since Aristotle’s De caelo had a major influence on cosmological thinking until the time of Galileo and Kepler and helped to shape the way in which Western civilization imagined its natural environment and place at the center of the universe, familiarity with the main doctrines of the De caelo is a prerequisite for an understanding of much of the thought and culture of antiquity and the Middle Ages.

L’oeuvre de David l’Invincible et la transmission de la pensée grecque dans la tradition arménienne et syriaqueCommentaria in Aristotelem Armeniaca - Davidis Opera Vol. 1

Edited by Valentina Calzolari and Jonathan Barnes

David, a member of the Platonic school in Alexandria in the sixth century, is credited with several commentaries on Aristotle’s logic: those commentaries, and their Armenian translations, form the subject of this book. An introduction, which discusses David and his place in the Greek and the Armenian traditions, is followed by a series of studies of the relations between the Greek texts and their Armenian translations: the aims are, first, to assess the value of the translations for the constitution of the original Greek, and secondly, to consider the ways in which the Armenian translations adapted the texts to suit their new readership. More generally, the book is concerned with the ways in which Greek thought was exported abroad—to Armenia and to Syria: it is required reading for anyone who is interested in the circulation of ideas between east and west.

Physics and Philosphy of Nature in Greek NeoplatonismProceedings of the European Science Foundation Exploratory Workshop (Il Ciocco, Castelvecchio Pascoli, June 22–24, 2006)

Edited by Riccardo Chiaradonna and Franco Trabattoni

Traditional scholarship has generally neglected the philosophy of nature in Greek Neoplatonism. In the last few decades, however, this attitude has changed radically. Natural philosophy has increasingly been regarded as a crucial aspect of late antique thought. Furthermore, several studies have outlined the impressive historical legacy of Neoplatonic physics. Building on this new interest, the ten papers published here concentrate on Neoplatonic philosophy of nature from Plotinus to Simplicius, and on its main conceptual features and its relation to the previous philosophical and scientific traditions. The papers were presented at a conference sponsored by the European Science Foundation in Castelvecchio Pascoli in June 2006. This volume makes an important contribution to the understanding of Greek Neoplatonism and its historical significance.

AëtianaThe Method and Intellectual Context of a Doxographer, Volume II, The Compendium

J. Mansfeld and D.T. Runia

The theme of this study is the Doxography of problems in physics from the Presocratics to the early first century BCE attributed to Aëtius. Part I focuses on the argument of the compendium as a whole, of its books, of its sequences of chapters, and of individual chapters, against the background of Peripatetic and Stoic methodology. Part II offers the first full reconstruction in a single unified text of Book II, which deals with the cosmos and the heavenly bodies. It is based on extensive analysis of the relevant witnesses and includes listings of numerous doxographical-dialectical parallels in other ancient writings. This new treatment of the evidence supersedes Diels’ still dominant source-critical approach, and will prove indispensable for scholars in ancient philosophy.

Spirituality in the Writings of Etty HillesumProceedings of the Etty Hillesum Conference at Ghent University, November 2008

Edited by Klaas A.D. Smelik, Ria van den Brandt, and Meins G. S. Coetsier

Much of the previous scholarship on Etty Hillesum (1914-1943) was done by individual scholars within the analyses of their fields. After the proceedings of the international Etty Hillesum Congress at Ghent University in November 2008, this Congress Volume is the first joined effort by more than twenty Hillesum experts worldwide. It is an absorbing account of international scholarship on the life, works and vision of the Dutch Jewish writer Etty Hillesum, whose life was shaped by the totalitarian Nazi-regime. Hillesum’s diaries and letters illustrate her heroic struggle to come to terms with her personal life in the context of World War II. Building on new interest in theology, philosophy, and psychology this book revives Hillesum research with a comprehensive rereading of both her published works and lesser-known secondary discourses on her life. The result is fascinating. With the current explosion of interest in inter-religious dialogue, peace studies, Judaism, the holocaust, gender studies and mysticism, it is clear that this Congress Volume will be invaluable to students and scholars in various disciplines.

The Mystery of the EarthMysticism and Hasidism in the Thought of Martin Buber

Israel Koren

Challenging the prevalent view that in order to establish his “Dialogical” thought Martin Buber had to forsake his earlier “mystical” work, Israel Koren demonstrates instead that mystical paradigms serve as the foundation for Buber’s dialogue and endow it with greater depth. While most scholars portray Buber’s dialogical thought mainly in its Western and modern philosophical background, the author examines Buber’s interpretation of Hasidic themes such as Devekut (attachment to God) among others, in order to establish that his dialogical writings evolved out of his interpretation of Judaism in general, his understanding of the Hasidic conception of the world and the mission of man in Hasidism in particular. Buber’s work is therefore shown to be original mystical neo-Hasidic thought, which serves as a new link in the historical chain of Jewish mysticism.

The Cultures of MaimonideanismNew Approaches to the History of Jewish Thought

Edited by James T. Robinson

In the history of Jewish thought, no individual scholar has exercised more influence than Maimonides (1138-1204) – philosopher and physician, legal scholar and communal leader. This collection of papers, originating at the 2007 EAJS colloquium, places primary emphasis on this influence – not on Maimonides himself but the many movements he inspired. Using Maimonideanism as an interpretive lens, the authors of this volume – representing a variety of fields and disciplines – develop new approaches to and fresh perspectives on the peculiar dynamic of Judaism and philosophy. Focusing on social and cultural processes as well as philosophical ideas and arguments, they point toward an original reconceptualization of Jewish thought.

Tradition and ModernityA Humanist View

chen LaiTranslated by Edmund Ryden

The Question for Twentieth-Century China has been the integration of tradition and modernity. In this collection of essays written over a period of some twenty years (1987-2006), Chen Lai reflects on the question in an informative and original way. He reads behind the political slogans and engages with the thought both of Max Weber, Talcott Parsons and Western sociology, and representative Chinese thinkers, notably Feng Youlan and Liang Shuming. While the focus is on China, the book also appeals to anyone interested in this fascinating question of how to modernise whilst retaining the positive values of tradition. Chen Lai’s unique and balanced grasp of society marks him out as the foremost thinker in China on this topic today.

Concepts of NatureA Chinese-European Cross-Cultural Perspective

Edited by Hans Ulrich Vogel and Günter Duxwith an overview and introduction by Mark Elvin

This book, inspired by the sociologist Günter Dux, co-edited by the historian Hans Ulrich Vogel, and introduced by Mark Elvin, is a collective intellectual masterpiece written by some of the world’s leading scholars. Its purpose is to illuminate premodern Chinese ways of thinking about Nature by comparing them with their counterpart traditions in Europe. In so doing it also subtly reshapes our understanding of premodern European concepts of the natural world. The domains covered principally include philosophy, language, poetry, science, and mathematics, and their relations with society, technology, and politics. By analyzing the frequent partial similarities between these great two cultural areas in the context of their overall contrasts, it points the way for the first time to defining accurately the differences that have been critical for world history.

Configurations of the Real in Chinese Literary and Aesthetic Modernity

Peter Button

The emergence of the Chinese socialist realist novel can best be understood in light of the half-century long formation of the modern concept of literature in China. Globalized in the wake of modern capitalism, literary modernity configures the literary text in a relationship to both modern philosophy and literary theory. This book traces China’s unique, complex, and creative articulation of literary modernity beginning with Lu Xun’s “The True Story of Ah Q.” Cai Yi’s aesthetic theory of the type (dianxing) and the image (xingxiang) is then explored in relation to global currents in literary thought and philosophy, making possible a fundamental rethinking of Chinese socialist realist novels like Yang Mo’s Song of Youth and Luo Guangbin and Yan Yiyan’s Red Crag.Tracing the formation of the modern concept of literature in 20th century China, this book examines the emergence of the Chinese socialist realist novel in relation to the literary and philosophical currents globalized in the wake of capitalist modernity.

International Review of Pragmatics

International Review of Pragmatics (IRP) is a new peer-reviewed international journal committed to publishing excellent research in the area of pragmatics and related disciplines pertaining to all aspects of human communication, verbal and non-verbal. It aims to provide a comprehensive and authoritative picture of the field, encouraging submissions rooted in different conceptions and perspectives originating in geographically diverse areas. IRP publishes full-length original articles, review articles and discussion notes. While subscribing to the general view that all meaning is necessarily contextual, IRP welcomes research reflecting different, often conflicting, views of pragmatics. It is a forum for papers seeing pragmatics as a controlling perspective on language and communication studied across a number of disciplines (syntax, semantics, etc.), but also for those which consider pragmatics itself a separate discipline defined by specific objects of investigation (deixis, implicature, etc.). The confrontation is supposed to establish how much explanatory power in pragmatics rests in its interdisciplinary and semiotics-based variations, as opposed to self-contained methodologies with precisely delineated scope of application. Thus, in the long run, the aim of IRP will be to maintain a vigorous debate leading to crystallization of the core concept of pragmatics, and to evaluation of its descriptive and interpretive capacity.

Journal of Phenomenological Psychology

Edited by Frederick J. Wertz, Fordham University, New York Review Editor: Mufid James Hannush, Rosemont College, Rosemont, PA


The peer-reviewed Journal of Phenomenological Psychology publishes articles that advance the discipline of psychology from the perspective of the Continental phenomenology movement. Within that tradition, phenomenology is understood in the broadest possible sense including its transcendental, existential, hermeneutic, and narrative strands and is not meant to convey the thought of any one individual. Articles advance the discipline of psychology by applying phenomenology to enhance the field’s philosophical foundations, critical reflection, theoretical development, research methodologies, empirical research, and applications in such areas as clinical, educational, and organizational psychology. Over its four decades, the Journal of Phenomenological Psychology has consistently demonstrated the relevance of phenomenology for psychology in areas involving qualitative research methods, the entire range of psychological subject matters, and theoretical approaches such as the psychoanalytic, cognitive, biological, behavioral, humanistic, and psychometric. The overall aim is to further the psychological understanding of the human person in relation to self, world, others, and time. Because the potential of Continental phenomenology for enhancing psychology is vast and the field is still developing, innovative and creative applications or phenomenological approaches to psychological problems are especially welcome.

Society and AnimalsJournal of Human-Animal Studies

Edited by Kenneth Shapiro, Animals & Society Institute

• 2010: Volume 18 (in 4 issues)• ISSN 1063-1119 / E-ISSN 1568-5306• Institutional subscription rates Electronic only: EUR 213.- / US$ 290.- Print only: EUR 234.- / US$ 319.- Electronic + Print: EUR 256.- / US$ 348.-• Individual subscription rates Print only: EUR 59.- / US$ 80.- Society & Animals publishes studies that describe and analyze our experiences of non-human animals from the perspective of various disciplines within both the social sciences (e.g., psychology, sociology, anthropology, political science) and humanities (e.g., history, literary criticism). The journal specifically deals with subjects such as human-animal interactions in various settings (animal cruelty, the therapeutic uses of animals), the applied uses of animals (research, education, medicine and agriculture), the use of animals in popular culture (e.g. dog-fighting, circus, animal companion, animal research), attitudes toward animals as affected by different socializing agencies and strategies, representations of animals in literature, the history of the domestication of animals, the politics of animal welfare, and the constitution of the animal rights movement. The goal of the journal is to stimulate and support the emerging multi-disciplinary field of animal studies, which consists, broadly, of investigations of the ways in which non-human animals figure in our lives. Although emphasizing empirically based studies, the journal also publishes theoretical analyses, literature reviews, methodological contributions, and comments on relevant topics. The editorial board consists of over thirty scholars, professionals (e.g. animal assisted therapists, shelter, zoo, wildlife personnel…), policy makers, and animal advocates. Society & Animals is unique in the breadth of subjects covered, methods of papers published, and diversity of scholarly disciplines represented. It is also unique in its encouragement of data based discussion of ethical and policy issues in the current debate over the place of non-human animals in an increasingly human-centered world. Thomson Scientific’s Journal Citations Report for 2008 ranks Society & Animals with an Impact Factor of 0.293.
