Abstract

Volume 18 of Martin Heidegger's collected works presents his important 1924 Marburg lectures which anticipate much of the revolutionary thinking that he subsequently articulated in Being and Time. Here are the seeds of the ideas that would become Heidegger's unique phenomenology. Heidegger interprets Aristotle's Rhetoric and looks closely at the Greek notion of pathos. These lectures offer special insight into the development of his concepts of care and concern, being-at-hand, being-in-the-world, and attunement, which were later elaborated in Being and Time.

Abstract

While Aristotle's account of the happy life continues to receive attention, many of his claims about virtue of character seem so puzzling that modern philosophers have often discarded them, or have reworked them to fit more familiar theories that do not make virtue of character central. In this book, Paula Gottlieb takes a fresh look at Aristotle's claims, particularly the much-maligned doctrine of the mean. She shows how they form a thought-provoking ethic of virtue, one that deserves to be developed and refined. The first part of the book addresses the nature of virtue and the virtues, illuminated by the doctrine of the mean. Building on the conclusions of this analysis, the second part explains the mentality of the good person and the type of society that will allow such a person to flourish.

Abstract

Aristoteles hatte die Erregung von Furcht und Mitleid streng begrenzt auf die kathartische Wirkung der Tragödie bezogen: Weder ein Zuviel noch ein Zuwenig an Leid, an Ethos oder an Nähe ist erlaubt, wenn sich die gewünschte Wirkung einstellen soll. Die Katharsis erweist sich als grenzbezogenes Phänomen. Zum Traditionsbruch kommt es im 19. Jahrhundert: Mit seiner medizinischen Deutung radikalisiert Jacob Bernays den Aspekt der "Abfuhr". Breuer und Freud erweitern die "kathartische Methode" auf das Spektrum aller Affekte. Nietzsche hingegen weist die aristotelische Deutung als "Missverständnis" zurück und stellt die tragische Wirkung in den Dienst des gesteigerten Lebens. Mit der von Bernays, Freud und Nietzsche eingeleiteten Revision erfährt der Begriff der Katharsis neue Aufmerksamkeit, insbesondere der konzeptuelle Anspruch auf Reinigung oder Heilung. In den modernen Künsten und Kunsttheorien kommt es zu einer Pluralisierung der Katharsiskonzeptionen. Welche Reinigungs- und Heilungsansprüche werden erhoben? Erfolgt eine Neuvermessung der Grenzen oder werden diese im Zeichen einer Entgrenzung der Künste aufgegeben? Die Beiträge dieses Sammelbands fragen nach der Reichweite der aristotelischen Katharsiskonzeption, im Verständnis affektbewegender Momente in den modernen Künsten.

Abstract

Two treatises on memory which have come down to us from antiquity are Aristotle's "On memory and recollection" and Plotinus' "On perception and memory" (IV 6); the latter also wrote at length about memory in his "Problems connected with the soul" (IV 3-4, esp. 3.25-4.6). In both authors memory is treated as a 'modest' faculty: both authors assume the existence of a persistent subject to whom memory belongs; and basic cognitive capacities are assumed on which memory depends. In particular, both theories use phantasia (representation) to explain memory.Aristotle takes representations to be changes in concrete living things which arise from actual perception. To be connected to the original perception the representation has to be taken as a (kind of) copy of the original experience - this is the way Aristotle defines memory at the end of his investigation.Plotinus does not define memory: he is concerned with the question of what remembers. This is of course the soul, which goes through different stages of incarnation and disincarnation. Since the disembodied soul can remember, so he does not have Aristotle's resources for explaining the continued presence of representations as changes in the concrete thing. Instead, he thinks that when acquiring a memory we acquire a capacity in respect of the object of the memory, namely to make it present at a later time.
