Violence and Conflict in Alexandre Kojève’s works

“Philosophical Journal of Conflict and Violence” - Special Issue

Alexandre Kojève is well known for having initiated a whole generation of intellectuals into a certain reading of Hegel. From the claim that the struggle for recognition must be necessarily a “bloody” one to the assessment that the replacement of those elites whose authority has expired may call for their annihilation, not to mention his equation of biological “death” with human freedom or his interpretation of revolutionary terror as a pedagogical tool to bring forth the perfect citizen of the post-historical age, Kojève´s corpus offers not few topics in which to ground such a reexamination. The special issue of Philosophical Journal of Conflict and Violence (PJCV) seeks cutting-age articles from contributors which openly explore the aforementioned topics as well as others along the same lines.

Brazil Meeting of the Global Bergsonism Research Project

Based on the pioneering work of Bento Prado Júnior and Franklin Leopoldo e Silva, Bergsonian studies have developed significantly in Brazil over the last twenty years. This includes a thematic diversity that allows a rich dialogue with other scholars around the world. This Webseminar will be an occasion to discuss the potentialities of Bergon’s work, explored in an original way through the diversity of schools and academic backgrounds of all continents. We hope to encourage and foster discussions in a concrete practice of “ouverture” – mental, cultural and social – renewing questions and problematizations around three themes: spirit and life, Bergson and the history of philosophy, Bergson and contemporary philosophy.

Time at the Turn of the Twentieth Century in American-British Philosophy

Around the turn of the twentieth century, time became a major focus of American-British philosophy. Against a broadly Kantian-Hegelian backdrop, philosophers began developing new questions and theories about time. Shadworth Hodgson argued humans perceive a ‘specious present’, a short duration rather than an infinitesimally small one; this view was further developed by Mary Calkins and William James. J. M. E. McTaggart advanced a new argument for the unreality of time. A. N. Whitehead made time the foundation of his process philosophy. This event brings together philosophers from Europe and North America exploring this period that was to become defining for the contours of twentieth-century English-speaking philosophy of time. The event will deliberately be scheduled to be compatible with European and North American time zones.

Oswald Spengler

Philosophical Journal of Conflict and Violence (PJCV) - (Special Issue)

The Philosophical Journal of Conflict and Violence (PJCV) welcomes contributions concerning the role of conflict and violence in Spengler’s conceptual system(s) and its political legacy. This special issue is intended to contribute to the ongoing reappraisal of Spengler’s thought and its influence through the analysis of themes of conflict, struggle, turmoil and violence both within Spengler’s historical and philosophical writings, and with regards to the impact of his writings on wider society.

Cambridge

The thought of Henri Bergson (1859-1941), one of the most influential theorists of time of the twentieth century, has primarily been confined to the so-called “continental” tradition of philosophy. In the past few years this has started to change; his work has begun to receive ingenious reassessment from philosophers outside the field of “continental” philosophy in general and within analytic philosophy in particular. The aim of this conference is to capture this moment and use it to provide new perspectives on Bergsonian philosophy, expanding and reassessing Bergson’s legacy and producing a major permutation in the philosophy of time.

Field philosophy and other experiments

This colloquium will bring together leading and emerging scholars to discuss, share, and analyze what similarities and differences there are between their respective humanities research projects, as conducted in the field, and to experiment with what new field practices might emerge from the humanities. How are field practices in the environmental humanities methodologically different from those in cultural anthropology, geography, or sociology? How might field research in philosophy reshape traditionally text-based disciplinary boundaries?

Utopia in a Post-secular Society: at the Cross-sections of Literature and Philosophy

48th Annual Convention, Northeast Modern Language Association (NeMLA)

An element that seems to characterize the 20^thcentury reflection on utopia is its secular nature. Through a re-thinking of the place and roles of religion in society, the post-secular turn we are witnessing in recent theory (Habermas, Taylor, Asad, Mahmood) may provide a critical point of departure for questioning this specific aspect of utopian tradition. In this panel, we invite papers that reflect on the relationship between utopia and religion, as it is worked out in 20^thcentury literature and philosophy: How does the place of the utopian tradition change in the context of the “return of the religion” in a post-secular society?

IV Congrès international de mythocritique

Mythe et émotions

Il existe une logique rationnelle mais aussi une logique émotionnelle, responsable de nombreuses actions que nous réalisons. La mythocritique aborde souvent les récits mythiques depuis une perspective structurelle, sociale, historique, etc. Cependant, elle ignore souvent le composant émotionnel. Il semblerait que la dimension affective, particulièrement présente dans notre société contemporaine, ne soit pas pertinente dans les études de mythologie. Le Congrès examinera le rôle que jouent les émotions aussi bien dans la structuration des récits mythiques que dans les procès de mythification de personnages et événements historiques. Le cadre de travail est l’étude des mythes anciens, médiévaux et modernes dans la littérature et les arts contemporains (depuis 1900).

From Xenakis to the present: the Continuum in music and architecture

Continuum 2016

Since the Classical era and the Middle Ages, and in particular since Plato’s Timeus, the concept of continuum has preoccupied thinkers. In the early 20^th century, this notion was reactivated by the theory of relativity as well as other theories such as the uncertainty principle, changing our perception of the world, and consequently artistic discourse. We propose to examine where we are today in terms of the concept of continuum, both in theory and in practice. An interdisciplinary approach will enable us to evaluate the relevancy of this notion, comparing and contrasting it with other methodologies, during this international conference.

The Wisdom of the Ancients. Jerusalem rediscovers Athens

The German-Jewish Revaluation of Ancient Philosophy

Between 1920 and 1930, a group of young, brilliant Jewish researchers studied in Germany under the direction of Cassirer, Husserl and Heidegger. Leo Strauss, Karl Löwith, Hans Jonas, Hannah Arendt, Jacob Klein, Eric Weil, Günther Anders, and others were forced by the advent of Nazism to escape from Germany and to wander around the world. All these thinkers strove to question the historicist assumption, according to which Modernity is to be seen as progress in respect to the Ancient thought. In their studies, they found new ways to listen to the voice of the Ancients, by revaluating them in the context of the crisis of modern thought. Starting from Athens and Jerusalem, the symbolic roots of western culture, these philosophers problematized and revitalized the quarrel between Ancients and Moderns over again.

Etty Hillesum. Un siècle après (1914-2014)

Colloque international

Les écrits d’Esther (Etty) Hillesum sont pour nous un recueil precieux, constituant une documentation historique très saillante. Ils représentent un reportage au sujet du mal extrême, tel que la persécution raciale et les lagers, ainsi qu’une puissante réflexion philosophique autour de la valeur et du sens de la vie, de l'amour et de la mort. Le Colloque international « Etty hillesum. Cento anni dopo (1914-2014) » (9 et 10 décembre 2014, Université Ca' Foscari de Venise, Italie) veut tracer un bilan de l'œuvre de cet important témoin du XX^e siècle.

Immanence and Transcendence in Deleuzean metaphysics

Deleuze’s project is usually presented as developing a radical immanentism. It wants to get rid of the classical distinction between two orders of being - the order of the essences and the order of the things in which these essences are incarnated - and it is very critical towards any attempt to re-introduce a (hidden) transcendent element into the immanent order. The "virtual" can be considered Deleuze's answer to the question how to conceive of a ground or foundation that does not break the immanent ontology. Deleuze describes the virtual as that which is not actual although it is real, as something that does not belong to the domain of the possible, as complication, etc. One could ask oneself if these descriptions are not philosophical constructions, that is, rather forced attempts to stay within the immanent order of being. How can we think the non-actuality of the virtual? Is not the virtual transcendent in some sense? Does it make sense to speak of an immanent transcendence in Deleuze’s philosophy, and if so, of what would it consist? Explorations of the historical roots of this topic in Deleuze (Spinoza, Leibniz, etc.) are also welcome.

French Theory : réception dans les arts visuels aux États-Unis entre 1965 et 1995

Nombreux sont les artistes américains, actifs dans la seconde moitié du XXe siècle, à avoir nourri leur réflexion et leur pratique des apports de la philosophie, des études littéraires et des sciences sociales. À cet égard, un certain nombre d'auteurs français ont bénéficié très tôt d'un intérêt soutenu. La perspective de ce colloque sera l'étude de la réception de cette « pensée française » dans le domaine des arts visuels à partir de 1965 et jusqu'en 1995, veille d'un mouvement d'évaluation critique de l'influence de ces auteurs sur la pensée intellectuelle américaine, initiée entre autres par la désormais fameuse « affaire Sokal ».

Nombreux sont les artistes américains, actifs dans la seconde moitié du XXe siècle, à avoir nourri leur réflexion et leur pratique des apports de la philosophie, des études littéraires et des sciences sociales. À cet égard, un certain nombre d’auteurs français ont bénéficié très tôt d’un intérêt soutenu. Parmi ceux-ci, on retrouve des figures majeures comme Lévi-Strauss, Barthes, Bourdieu, Foucault, Lacan, Althusser, Lyotard, Baudrillard, Derrida ou Deleuze. Autant de penseurs dont les écrits en sont venus à constituer le corpus de ce que l’on désigne désormais sous l’appellation de French Theory. La perspective de ce colloque sera donc l’étude de la réception de cette « pensée française » dans le domaine des arts visuels américains à partir de 1965 et jusqu’en 1995.
