"Não é no Uno, mas no múltiplo, que respiramos". (2010-2023)
One considerable advantage that arises from Philosophy, consists in the sovereign antidote which it affords to superstition and false religion. All other remedies against thatpestilent distemper are vain, or at least uncertain. Plain good sense and the practice of the world, which alone serve most purposes of life, are here found ineffectual: History as well… Continue lendo “Of Suicide” – David HUME

Some day, intellectual historians may remark that the twentieth century was the one in which the philosophy professors began to stop asking bad questions—questions like “What really exists?” “What are the scope and limits of human knowledge?” and “How does language hook up with reality?” These questions assume that philosophy can be done ahistorically. They… Continue lendo “Anticlericalism and Atheism” – Richard RORTY

This combative bachelor, who retired to Frankfurt in 1833 for the last decades of his reclusive life because he thought the city had ‘no floods’, ‘better cafés’, ‘a skilful dentist and less bad physicians’, brought the way we think about ourselves to… Continue lendo “Schopenhauer’s crux” – John GRAY
Os evangelistas do Iluminismo dirão que se tratava de um desvio do “verdadeiro” Iluminismo, que é inocente de todo mal. Assim como os crentes religiosos dirão que o “verdadeiro” cristianismo não teve qualquer participação na Inquisição, os humanistas seculares insistem em que o Iluminismo não foi responsável pela ascensão do racismo moderno. O que é… Continue lendo “Racismo e antissemitismo no Iluminismo” – John GRAY

Alexandre Lacroix : Vous vous méfiez d’une maxime qui passe pourtant pour une pierre angulaire de la sagesse : « Connais-toi toi-même. » Pourquoi considérez-vous qu’elle nous engage sur une mauvaise voie, dans une recherche stérile ? Clément Rosset : Rappelons pour commencer que la formule « Connais-toi toi-même » n’est pas de Socrate, comme Platon contribue à nous le faire croire dans… Continue lendo « Ignore-toi toi-même » : entretien avec Clément Rosset

Prefácio Ideias céticas podem ser encontradas em muitos textos da filosofia grega antiga; elas reaparecem na filosofia moderna em novas versões e continuam a ter influência até os tempos atuais. Empregaram-se argumentos céticos para corroborar visões filosóficas que, embora não totalmente céticas, tendem para essa direção: termos como relativismo, convencionalismo, construtivismo, anti-realismo, pragmatismo e subjetivismo… Continue lendo Ceticismo (Charles Landesman)
