Le « regard philologique » de Warburg

La contribution suivante s’attache à présenter la conception warburgienne de l’histoire de l’art dans sa logique philologique. À nos yeux, l’histoire de l’art de Warburg, pratique proprement iconologique, a un fondement philologique. Une telle interprétation pose que le travail de Warburg a la même motivation que celui de Panofsky.

Self-examination, Understanding, Transmission: On Becoming a Teacher in Clauberg’s Logica vetus et nova

This paper takes a fresh look at Johannes Clauberg’s Logica vetus et nova, in order to try to clarify its nature and character. Differently from prior readings of Clauberg that analyze his philosophy from the point of view of the construction of ‘ontology’, the approach of the present paper sees in Clauberg’s philosophy a late-Humanist work, accentuating his pedagogic and hermeneutical interests. Indeed, in Clauberg’s philosophy, hermeneutics and pedagogy are intrinsically bound together. This, the paper suggests, is supported not only by the concrete subject-matters of his logic, but also by the examination of Clauberg’s milieu and of his sources. Analysis, in this framework, has a strictly hermeneutical usage

Naturalization: Habits, Bodies and Their Subjects

The paper seeks to draw a preliminary map of the relations between the human body, habituation, and nature, in a lineage of questioning which should be referred to as Aristotelian in the wider sense of the term. The trail begins from Aristotle’s articulations of Hexis, and reaches Bergson’s definition of motoric habitude, through the two intermediary-stops of Thomas Aquinas and Félix Ravaisson. In all of the four “stations” of the trail, one finds intricate relations between habituation and nature that include the role that the human body plays in the process of coming-near of the two and the approximation between them. Habituation has a task to play in the bringing of a humanbody as close as possible to its own natural reality. Yet by that process habituation effectively covers and wraps the body with a “second” nature, a supplementary nature including not only actions, operations, gestures and deeds but also things that participate in these. Finally, based on this basic structure of habituation, all the four “stops” in the presented conceptual genre conceive of the task of habituation as carrying a moral tenor, which the article seeks to portray

A "Fórmula de Pathos" de Warburg nos contextos Psicanalítico e Benjaminiano

Neste artigo publicado em 2000 na Revista da Universidade de Tel-Aviv, Adi Efal confrontou conceito warburguiano de Pathosformel a conceitosfreudo-lacanianos relativos à memória e ao conceito benjaminiano de alegoria, em uma aproximação de fundamentos epistemológicos e operatividade teórico-metodológica, que ilumina o atual retorno a Warburg na história da arte

The figural go-between in the Cartesian conception of science

The article addresses the early-modern conception of figuration, and more specifically the form in which it appears in Descartes' early writings. There is textual evidence suggesting that Descartes was aware both of the mathematical and of the poetical characters of figures, contributing to the design of methodical processes. It is argued that figures play a central role in the Cartesian conception of method, in which figuration, leaning on the universal laws of geometry, is being used as carrier of data from reality to the observing mind and back, as well as from one domain of inquiry to another. It is therefore a central binder of the Cartesian 'Unity of Science', being responsible for the interconnectedness of various domains of inquiry

The way to philosophy : methodical synthesis in the cartesian writings of Johannes Clauberg

Ce travail propose une lecture des écrits de Johannes Clauberg (1622-1665), sous le prisme de la méthode philosophique. Il situe la philosophie de Clauberg au sein du genre conceptuel du « méthodisme », dont le point de référence historiographique est la philosophie de René Descartes. Le genre conceptuel du méthodisme suggère une discussion autour du concept de la méthode. Nous définissons la manière dont se forme le cartésianisme de Clauberg aussi par une impulsion méthodique qui n’est pas exclusivement cartésienne. En outre, nous suggérons que dans le méthodisme de Clauberg les stades proto-philosophiques recoivent une ampleur déterminante. Nous commençons par une reconstruction du genre conceptuel du méthodisme, en nous concentrant sur Ramus et Zabarella. Le méthodisme inclut nécessairement les termes de l’analyse et de la synthèse. Nous démontrons la structure complexe d’analyse et de synthèse trouvée chez Clauberg. Nous construisons ensuite une description des aspects synthétiques de la philosophie de Clauberg – figuration, compréhension (Verstehen) et pédagogie thérapeutique, compris ensemble comme une proto-philosophie.This work proposes a reading of the writings of Johannes Clauberg (1622-1665), under the prism of the philosophical method. Clauberg's philosophy is situated within the conceptual genre of "methodism", whose historiographical focal point is the philosophy of René Descartes. The conceptual genre of the methodism suggests a discussion around the concept of the method. We define the way in which Clauberg's Cartesianism is also shaped by a methodical impulse that is not exclusively Cartesian. In addition, we suggest that Clauberg's methodism proposes an epistemology in which proto-philosophical stages receive a determining role. We begin with a reconstruction of the conceptual genre of methodology, concentrating on Ramus and Zabarella, and show that the conceptual genre of methodism necessarily uses the terms ‘analysis’ and ‘synthesis.’ We demonstrate the complex structure of analysis and synthesis found in Clauberg. We then construct a description of the synthetic aspects of Clauberg's philosophy - figuration, comprehension (Verstehen) and therapeutic pedagogy, together as a proto-philosophy

Hegel and Schelling in Early Nineteenth-Century France

International audienceHegel and Schelling in Early Nineteenth-Century France is a two-volume work that documents the French reception of G. W. F. Hegel and F. W. J. Schelling from 1801 to 1848. It shows that the story of the "French Hegel" didn't begin with Wahl and Kojève by giving readers a solid understanding of the various ways in which German Idealism impacted nineteenth-century French philosophy, as well as providing the first ever English-language translations of excerpts from the most important philosophical texts of the era.Inside volume one, readers will find a number of interpretative frameworks to help them get to grips with this neglected field in the history of ideas. In addition to excerpted translations and a narrative of Hegel’s and Schelling’s fate in France during the early nineteenth century, this volume includes an introduction on transnational reception history, as well as an analytical catalogue of the translations of their work produced in French at this time, of the publications which appropriated or interrogated their philosophical legacy, and of the journals, institutional structures and other mechanisms of dissemination that brought Hegel’s and Schelling’s philosophy into France. The book thus details the ways in which French philosophers of the period took up the debates and concepts of German Idealism, transformed them or rejected them. In this way, it aims to contribute to a reversal of the serious neglect of early nineteenth-century French thought in English-language scholarship and, in so doing, goes beyond a nation-based narrative of the history of philosophy.Figures covered in the volumes include major philosophers such as Cousin, Leroux, Proudhon, Quinet, Ravaisson, Renouvier and Véra, as well as more neglected figures, like Barchou de Penhoën, Bénard, Lèbre, Lerminier, Pictet, and Willm
