Tradição e pluralismo nos escritos filosóficos de Fernando Pessoa

Tese apresentada para cumprimento dos requisitos necessários à obtenção do grau de Doutor em Filosofia - EstéticaA presente dissertação de Doutoramento tem por objecto de estudo os escritos filosóficos de Fernando Pessoa. No espólio de Pessoa existe uma multiplicidade de fragmentos de ensaios, livros, pequenas produções e páginas autónomas de cariz filosófico que este autor não chegou a publicar no decurso da sua vida e que ainda se encontram, em grande parte, inéditos apesar das inúmeras tentativas de dar a conhecer a dimensão filosófica da obra deste poeta e pensador português. Este autor deixou-nos igualmente, entre os escritos do seu espólio, uma multiplicidade de projectos filosóficos e listas com títulos de obras filosóficas por realizar. Deste modo, a escolha do tema Tradição e Pluralismo nos Escritos Filosóficos de Fernando Pessoa é reflexo do objecto de estudo da presente dissertação de doutoramento. Com efeito, Fernando Pessoa não cria um sistema filosófico unitário que incorpore e sintetize a multiplicidade de produções filosóficas correspondentes aos vários projectos e títulos de obras de índole filosófica concebidos por este autor. O pensamento de Fernando Pessoa é um pensamento pluralista e a dimensão pluralista de Pessoa reflecte-se também na sua produção filosófica. O carácter pluralista da produção filosófica de Fernando Pessoa é, por um lado, reflexo da atitude multifacetada desenvolvida ao longo de toda a produção literária deste pensador e, por outro lado, do posicionamento deste pensador perante a tradição filosófica. Com efeito, na Biblioteca Particular de Fernando Pessoa existe uma pluralidade de livros e estudos filosóficos assinados, sublinhados e comentados por este autor. No Espólio de Pessoa existem também extensos resumos e comentários de obras da tradição filosófica. Estes indícios testemunham o contacto de Pessoa com uma multiplicidade de tradições filosóficas, cujo pendor pluralista dos seus escritos filosóficos viria a ser reflexo. Assim, este estudo pretende ser um contributo para o aprofundamento do estudo do alcance filosófico da obra de Fernando Pessoa

Fernando Pessoa Leitor de Pascal e o Projeto do Livro do Desassossego

Fernando Pessoa leitor de Schopenhauer e o problema do livre-arbítrio

This article aims to elucidate the relation between Fernando Pessoa, Schopenhauer and the problem of free-will, based on the reading that the Portuguese author made of the Schopenhauerian work. Indeed, throughout Pessoa’s writings one finds multiple testimonies of the reading that the Portuguese poet and thinker made of Schopenhauerian thought. An important indication for the study of Pessoa’s reappropriation of Schopenhauer’s thought is found in Fernando Pessoa’s Private Library, where one finds a French translation of Über die Freiheit des menschlichen Willens. The reading of this book would lead to the production of a multiplicity of philosophical writings that Fernando Pessoa attributes to two of his English fictitious literary personalities from the pre-heteronymic universe: Charles Robert Anon and Alexander Search. Thus, based on all these indications, we intend to show the impact of Schopenhauer’s reading on Pessoa’s literary universe.O presente artigo visa elucidar as relações entre Fernando Pessoa, Schopenhauer e a questão do livre arbítrio, tendo por base a leitura que o autor português fez da obra schopenhaueriana.

Um importante indício para o estudo da reapropriação pessoana do pensamento de Schopenhauer constata-se, desde logo, na Biblioteca Particular de Fernando Pessoa, onde encontramos uma tradução francesa do texto Über die Freiheit des menschlichen Willens [Sobre a liberdade da vontade] de Schopenhauer.

MAMMALS IN PORTUGAL : A data set of terrestrial, volant, and marine mammal occurrences in P ortugal

Mammals are threatened worldwide, with 26% of all species being includedin the IUCN threatened categories. This overall pattern is primarily associatedwith habitat loss or degradation, and human persecution for terrestrial mam-mals, and pollution, open net fishing, climate change, and prey depletion formarine mammals. Mammals play a key role in maintaining ecosystems func-tionality and resilience, and therefore information on their distribution is cru-cial to delineate and support conservation actions. MAMMALS INPORTUGAL is a publicly available data set compiling unpublishedgeoreferenced occurrence records of 92 terrestrial, volant, and marine mam-mals in mainland Portugal and archipelagos of the Azores and Madeira thatincludes 105,026 data entries between 1873 and 2021 (72% of the data occur-ring in 2000 and 2021). The methods used to collect the data were: live obser-vations/captures (43%), sign surveys (35%), camera trapping (16%),bioacoustics surveys (4%) and radiotracking, and inquiries that represent lessthan 1% of the records. The data set includes 13 types of records: (1) burrowsjsoil moundsjtunnel, (2) capture, (3) colony, (4) dead animaljhairjskullsjjaws, (5) genetic confirmation, (6) inquiries, (7) observation of live animal (8),observation in shelters, (9) photo trappingjvideo, (10) predators dietjpelletsjpine cones/nuts, (11) scatjtrackjditch, (12) telemetry and (13) vocalizationjecholocation. The spatial uncertainty of most records ranges between 0 and100 m (76%). Rodentia (n=31,573) has the highest number of records followedby Chiroptera (n=18,857), Carnivora (n=18,594), Lagomorpha (n=17,496),Cetartiodactyla (n=11,568) and Eulipotyphla (n=7008). The data setincludes records of species classified by the IUCN as threatened(e.g.,Oryctolagus cuniculus[n=12,159],Monachus monachus[n=1,512],andLynx pardinus[n=197]). We believe that this data set may stimulate thepublication of other European countries data sets that would certainly contrib-ute to ecology and conservation-related research, and therefore assisting onthe development of more accurate and tailored conservation managementstrategies for each species.

Mammals in Portugal: a data set of terrestrial, volant, and marine mammal occurrences in Portugal

Mammals are threatened worldwide, with ~26% of all species being included in the IUCN threatened categories. This overall pattern is primarily associated with habitat loss or degradation, and human persecution for terrestrial mammals, and pollution, open net fishing, climate change, and prey depletion for marine mammals.

Goethe, Spengler e a morfologia da linguagem em Wittgenstein

UID/ELT/00657/2013 SFRH/BPD/121514/2016This article presents the importance of Goethe's and Spengler's morphology for the development of a morphology of language in Wittgenstein's work, after his return to Cambridge and philosophy in 1929. In fact, according to Norman Malcolm's testimony, present in Ludwig Wittgenstein: A memoir, Wittgenstein says, in the course of his lectures about philosophical psychology, which took place between 1946 and 1947, that what his philosophy try to give is the morphology of the use of an expression. The development of a morphology of the use of an expression in Wittgenstein would become the result of the application to the domain of language of the concept of morphology applied by Goethe, in his scientific writings, to the domain of nature and by Oswald Spengler to the field of the universal history, as one sees in the work The Decline of the West - Sketch of a Morphology of the History of the World, which constitutes for Wittgenstein one of the sources to access fundamental aspects of Goethe's morphology. Throughout Wittgenstein's writings one finds several references to the thoughts of Goethe and Spengler which enable us to understand in what extent the works of these two thinkers constitute the basis for the construction of a wittgensteinian morphology of language. Thus, taking all these elements into consideration, we'll try to elucidate to what extent Wittgenstein's morphological-philosophical method after 1929 is the reelaboration of fundamental aspects of the morphological tradition present in the works of Goethe and Spengler.publishersversionpublishe

Characterisation of microbial attack on archaeological bone

As part of an EU funded project to investigate the factors influencing bone preservation in the archaeological record, more than 250 bones from 41 archaeological sites in five countries spanning four climatic regions were studied for diagenetic alteration. Sites were selected to cover a range of environmental conditions and archaeological contexts. Microscopic and physical (mercury intrusion porosimetry) analyses of these bones revealed that the majority (68%) had suffered microbial attack. Furthermore, significant differences were found between animal and human bone in both the state of preservation and the type of microbial attack present. These differences in preservation might result from differences in early taphonomy of the bones. © 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved
