Fuga saeculi. Spiritualità monastica e crisi della civiltà nel pensiero tedesco del primo Novecento

In opposition to the mainstream of a contemporary thought dened as individualist and critical against the traditional values of Western Civilization, on one side,and to the reactionary recovery of a fake image of the Middle Ages, on the otherside, some authors of the early twentieth century belonging to the German lan- guage area found in the monastic spirituality and the medieval theological tra-ditions the source for thinking a new kind of society. Aim of this paper is, there- fore, to focus authors like Paul Landsberg, Hugo Ball, Martin Heidegger, RomanoGuardini, to show the crucial role of this philosophical tradition and his topics inthe discussions about a reformation of the contemporary society and a rethinkingof some principles of the Western Civilizatio

L’antropologia filosofica di Remo Cantoni: umanismo critico, “connessione orizzontale” e partecipazione

The paper proposes a critical reflection on Remo Cantoni’s philosophical thought, with particular regards to his anthropological point of view that addresses concepts such as “critical humanism” and “horizontal connection”. The strict relationship between anthropology and participation are his main topics on which he has made outstanding remarks in the second decade of XXth century in the Italian cultural panorama. Since his early works, Cantoni points out the need to develop a different way of analysing the pluridimensionality of human beings and widely debates contemporary European cultural context after the end of World War II. The paper tries to put in evidence how Cantoni’s anthropological thought originally tends to a knowledgical intentionality dimension which should be taken into account for ethnographic investigation. In order to apply his point view, he suggests to consider an epistemological approach which could connect all the social-scientific sciences through a “horizontal connection”, whose aim is to gain a vital relationship of culture with the existing variety and alterity

Valore o relazione? La storiografia filosofica per una verifica del concetto di persona

At the present time it is possible to observe a return to «values»: just for example, against the economic crisis or the dehumanization of care, hearing calls to the value of the person or to the person as a value is becoming more frequent. The requirements of the philosophical historiography, as stated by Pareyson, can give the opportunity to confirm these concepts.Recentemente è possibile notare un ritorno dei «valori»: contro la crisi economica, contro la disumanità delle cure mediche, per fare solo degli esempi, è sempre più abituale udire richiami al valore della persona o alla persona come valore. Le esigenze, invece, della storiografia filosofica, come affermate da Pareyson, possono offrire l'occasione per una verifica di questi concetti
