Różne interpretacje kantowskiego transcendentalizmu

Author(s): Jacek Surzyn / Language(s): Polish Issue: XXVIII/2016

The article is an attempt to present different interpretations of transcendentalism of Immanuel Kant. The problem of transcendentalism is placed in a historical perspective, because it seems to be the only correct way for the proper recognition of the essence of Kant's thought. The article focuses on the analysis presented in two Polish interpretations of transcendentalism, one of which has been presented by Marek Siemek, and the other by Andrzej J. Noras. Siemek's interpretation goes toward reading Kant's transcendentalism through the prism of thoughts of J. Fichte, while Andrzej J. Noras tries to understand the transcendentalism of Kant referring to its historical origins and conditions. A. J. Noras’s proposal seems to be closer to Kant’s thought as it captures the essence of transcendentalism as such and could be a sees as a way to understand the true sense of Kant's postulate of "Copernican revolution".

Uwikłanie bohatera w mit – drogi duchowego wyzwolenia

Author(s): Katarzyna Popek / Language(s): Polish Issue: XXVIII/2016

The work is a frame study of heroism, which manifests itself in particular living people and in mythological characters, heroes concerned for welfare, beauty and truth in everyday struggles. It presents the fates of the mythical benefactors of humanity as well as humans absorbed by efforts for their spiritual salvation. The background of the stated problem concerning the entanglement of the hero into myth is “the philosophical disenfranchisement of art". This issue is a specific basis for the presenting of the figure of fined for his noble intentions Prometheus from the painting by Rubens. Referring to the heroism of the people, we can see that it is also not free of sacrifices. It turns out that there is no turning back from the destination, which is the life of every human according to his own conviction. However, only the awareness of the entanglement into myth and the practice of one’s personal religious belief in spiritual liberation can bring the expected relief in the form of true grace.

Powtórne stworzenie świata

Author(s): Ewelina Chodakowska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 25/2016

Szymon Wróbel’s considerations are situated at the intersection of philosophy, psychoanalysis and politics. The author uses the term “retroactivity” (nachträglich), known from the writings of Freud, to describe the way in which the individual transforms experiences from the past in their memory, reworks them, and gives them a new meaning, congruent with current needs and expectations. This also applies to reading, each of which fits in the project which the reader realises. Lektury retroaktywne (Retroactive readings) is a constant and often surprising clash of many different - authors’ concepts, regardless of their origins: a game of questions and answers challenged imme- diately by new questions. This philosophy must be a dialogue – hence its dramatic nature. Wróbel recalls, confronts and deconstructs the texts of such thinkers as Thucydides, Machiavelli, Hobbes, Nietzsche, Foucault, Levi-Strauss, Chomsky and Piaget. He also acquaints the reader with signifi- cant diagnoses of philosophers associated with speculative realism.

Zašto o filosofiji istorije danas?

Author(s): Zdenka Aćin / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 294-295/1983

U odgovoru na postavljeno pitanje mogli bismo navesti uobičajene pedagoške-didaktičke razloge. Ne sporeći inace njihovu umesnost, onf će, uprkos svemu, jedva okrznuti smisao pitanja. Jer, on seže dalje, sve do one tačke koju su tek nazirali kao nedovoljno mišljenu zvezdu vodilju neki od istinskih pokušaja da se misli istorija, mesto čoveka i Ijudske zajednlce u trajanju sveta.

INTRODUCTION: POLISH PHILOSOPHICAL REVISIONISTS IN MARXISM

Author(s): Marcin Maria Bogusławski,Barbara Tuchańska / Language(s): English Issue: 37/2017

The term ’philosophical revisionism in Marxism’ has several meanings and applications. In our opinion there are good reasons to restrict it to certain philosophical conceptions in the countries in which Marxism or Marxism-Leninism was/is the official ideology and the “state philosophy.”1 In the case of the Soviet Bloc countries the broader term ’revisionism’ is applied to complex political, ideological, and intellectual phenomena that came into being after the death of Stalin in 19532. His death marked the beginning of a new era in these countries, although it became evident only in 1956, when Nikita Khrushchev started the process of de-Stalinization with his Secret Speech delivered at the 20th Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, in which he denounced Stalin’s repressive politics. In three Communist countries, in Yugoslavia, Hungary, and Poland, philosophical movements revising Marxism happened as a part of this process of de-Stalinization.

MARXIST TRAIT OF REVISIONISM: LESZEK KOŁAKOWSKI’S CONSISTENT TRANSITION TO INCONSISTENT PHILOSOPHY

Author(s): Adam Olczyk / Language(s): English Issue: 37/2017

In the article the author describes theoretical reasons that stood behind Kołakowski's transition from being an orthodox Marxist to become an actual leader of the polish revisionist movement. His intention is to concentrate on those aspects of Kołakowski's thought that have not changed, apart from any biographical and psychological reasons. (1) First of those features is Kołakowski's inability of completability, the anti-code disposition. (2) The second trait is the moral attitude, an intention to influence on people's morality by convincing them that social and internal (necessarily bound with social) changes are desirable; that an existential calm demolishes morality. (3) Third feature concerns the fact that Kołakowski did not attempt to create his own philosophy, he was rather a historian of ideas, a skeptic, and a critic.

ON HISTORY AND LIBERTY: THE ‘REVISIONISM’ OF BRONISŁAW BACZKO

Author(s): Helder Mendes Baiao / Language(s): English Issue: 37/2017

The ‘Warsaw School of History of Ideas’ is the name given to a ‘revisionist think tank’ which was led by the historian Bronisław Baczko from 1956 to 1968 in Communist Poland. This group reunited scholars like Leszek Kołakowski or Krzysztof Pomian around questions related to political believes, theological conceptions or utopian thought. Expelled from the University, B. Baczko left Poland and seek shelter in Geneva where he became a Professor of history of Ideas and historiography. In his new home, he developed an original vision on Enlightenment and the French Revolution.

JERZY KMITA’S METHODOLOGICAL INTERPRETATION OF KARL MARX’S PHILOSOPHY. FROM IDEOLOGY TO METHODOLOGICAL CONCEPTS

Author(s): Anna Pałubicka / Language(s): English Issue: 37/2017

The article presents J. Kmita’s methodological interpretation of selected cognitive methods used by K. Marx. Those methods were (and I believe they still are) significant for the social sciences and the humanities, even a century after they had been developed. J Kmita’s interpretation reveals specificity of epistemic procedures carried out by the author of “Capital” and emphasizes contemporary actuality of Marx’s epistemological ideas. To achieve that aim, Kmita refers to the concepts established in the field of philosophy of science of his time. According to J. Kmita, the attractiveness of Marx’s approach lies in the opportunity to develop a methodological interpretation of Marx philosophy, which in turn enables the formation of a unique theory of science development, alternative to those provided by logical positivism, falsificationism, neopragmatism or sociology of knowledge. Such theory would combine the perspective of sociology of knowledge with an epistemological approach to the development of science.

Anty-Engelsowski marksizm Stanisława Brzozowskiego jako filozofi a polityczności avant la lettre

Author(s): Wiktor Marzec / Language(s): Polish Issue: 29/2012

The article attempts at reinterpreting thought of Stanisław Brzozowski as early philosophy of the political, as seen in post-structuralist political thought. The Polish thinker has faced the particular political situation of the Polish Kingdom in the early 20th century and dealt conceptually with impossibility of unproblematic political representation. Therefore, along with his heterodoxical, anti-ontological and praxistic Marxism, he also undertook the issue of construction of political subjectivities and engaged with groundless thinking not referring to any ultimate, stable ratio of class or nation. To put a long story short, he wrestled, and partially successfully ‘thought through’ the “moments of the political”, i.e. the radical contingency of the social fi eld.

Rzecz myśląca maszerująca. Przyczynek do krytyki teorii ideologii tout court

Author(s): Michał Sokolski / Language(s): Polish Issue: 29/2012

This paper is meant to be a brief account on Louis Althusser’s theory of ideology formulated in Ideology and ideological state apparatuses and on its epistemic conditions of possibility. As such, it can also be seen as a sort of its critique in a Kantian sense. The author traces functional and structural analogies between Althusserian notion of “subject of interpellation” and Cartesian concept of subjectivity. In conclusion, Althusser’s theory of ideology is shown to be strictly a post-Cartesian one. As such, it is perhaps not well suited to analyze non- or pre-Cartesian societies. But more importantly, we may ask: is it possible to think of some radically different, post-Cartesian, and thus post-capitalistic future while still using Cartesian categories?
