The late-scholastic school of Scotism (after John Duns Scotus, † 1308) left considerable room for disagreement. This volume innovatively demonstrates just how vividly Scotist philosophers and theologians discussed cognitive matters from the 14th until the 17th century. It further shows how the Scotist ideas were received in Protestant and Reformed milieus.

This exploration in the history of ideas examines the groundbreaking notion of the embodied mind in its analysis by the French philosopher and politician Maine de Biran (1766–1824) and in its afterlife: consciousness is generated through frequent interaction between the voluntary and the spiritual. The conscious, active self is constituted in its sovereign autonomy, as free and undivided, by an inner act of willful resistance, a physical effort towards its own body and the world. For the first time, a multidisciplinary group of senior and junior researchers from Japan, USA and Europe investigate origins and discursive cross-fertilization of this concept around 1800, an intermediary stage between 1870 and 1945, and its influence upon existentialism, phenomenology, and deconstructivism during the postwar-period and beyond, from 1943 to 2010.
The Italian Pragmatists were a group of philosophers in the early 20th century. They gathered around the journal Leonardo, which was published in Florence. This volume emphasizes what they all shared, as well as their value for philosophy and culture.

Rivisitare le filosofie del Novecento significa oggi ripensare una crisi di identità del pensiero filosofico, che non va comunque considerata come la fine della filosofia, ma piuttosto come un passaggio ulteriore rispetto alla prima emergenza del negativo, rappresentata dalla filosofia della crisi. Si tratta, a nostro avviso, di una svolta metodologica che prelude a un rinnovamento filosofico diretto a polarizzare la meraviglia sulla tematizzazione del dubbio, insita nella semantica del pensiero interrogativo. In questa prospettiva, si delineano heideggerianamente quei sentieri interrotti del filosofare che, nel successivo orizzonte del post-moderno o della fine della modernità, coniugano in vari modi e in diversi registri le vie, spesso divergenti, del post-metafisico. In questa situazione poliedrica e complessa, l’espressione schegge del Novecento, assume una ineludibile connotazione metaforica dalla quale esce sconfitto il pensiero sistematico Prof. Aurelio Rizzacasa
