Literatura e Ciência

A ciência e a literatura não são inimigas. Não se limitam a campos de guerra. Não se excluem como dois corpos estranhos e antagônicos. Integram uma intensa e profunda situação cultural. Leonardo da Vinci, passado meio milênio, ainda é fonte de inspiração para o diálogo entre dois mundos que se abraçam, entre dois polos que se nutrem e se inauguram. Os olhos de Mona Lisa e a projeção perspectiva, arte e ciência constituem um só gesto. Formas de chegar mais longe, mediante poéticas ousadas, que se interpenetram: tornam as fronteiras suaves, subvertem ideias fixas, propõem desenhos e gradientes. Ciência e Literatura, em diálogo, criam percursos ambiciosos, segundo uma tensão mais radial do conhecimento, vocação expansiva, com fome de mundo, olhando para todos os lados, com espanto e entusiasmo. Os textos de Lucia Santaella, Ana Maria Haddad, Márcia Fusaro, Diana Navas, Patrícia Fanaya, Júlio do Valle e Estela Guedes, retomam um horizonte de ousadia e inovação. Será decerto uma forma de apressar o futuro.

A expansão social do blockchain

Não pode haver qualquer sombra de dúvida de que estamos vivendo em um mundo que gira em ritmos cada vez mais vertiginosos. Entre os maiores responsáveis pela aceleração encontram-se as tecnologias, grande parte delas tecnologias da inteligência, que se multiplicam e avançam exponencialmente em conectividades complexas. Um bom exemplo disso encontra-se no Blockchain. Até 2018, esse nome se limitava a abrigar um pequeno universo de criptomoedas sob o nome de Bitcoin. Hoje, os especialistas estão seguros de que a tarefa das criptomoedas foi a de abrir as portas para o crescimento do restante da indústria voltada para uma nova forma de internet. Isso não significa que ambos, internet ...

Radical Embodied Cognitive Science

  • Publisher: MIT Press

A proposal for a new way to do cognitive science argues that cognition should be described in terms of agent-environment dynamics rather than computation and representation. While philosophers of mind have been arguing over the status of mental representations in cognitive science, cognitive scientists have been quietly engaged in studying perception, action, and cognition without explaining them in terms of mental representation. In this book, Anthony Chemero describes this nonrepresentational approach (which he terms radical embodied cognitive science), puts it in historical and conceptual context, and applies it to traditional problems in the philosophy of mind. Radical embodied cognitive...

Ontology—The Hermeneutics of Facticity

This probing analysis of the history of ontology is “of enormous significance for students of the development of Heidegger’s early thought” (Daniel O. Dahlstrom Boston University). First published in 1988, Ontology—The Hermeneutics of Facticity is the text of Heidegger’s lecture course at the University of Freiburg during the summer of 1923. In these lectures, Heidegger reviews and makes critical appropriations of the hermeneutic tradition from Plato, Aristotle, and Augustine to Schleiermacher and Dilthey. Through this critical survey, he reformulates the question of being on the basis of facticity and the everyday world. Specific themes deal with the history of ontology, the development of phenomenology and its relation to Hegelian dialectic, traditional theological and philosophical concepts of man, the present situation of philosophy, and the influences of Aristotle, Luther, Kierkegaard, and Husserl on Heidegger’s thinking. Students of Heidegger will find initial breakthroughs in his unique elaboration of the meaning of human experience and the “question of being,” which received mature expression in Being and Time.

Onto-Cartography

Defends and transforms naturalism and materialism to show how culture itself is formed by nature. Bryant endorses a pan-ecological theory of being, arguing that societies are ecosystems that can only be understood by considering nonhuman material agencies such as rivers and mountain ranges alongside signifying agencies such as discourses, narratives and ideologies.

Pragmatism and Feminism

Though many pioneering feminists were deeply influenced by American pragmatism, their contemporary followers have generally ignored that tradition because of its marginalization by a philosophical mainstream intent on neutral analyses devoid of subjectivity. In this revealing work, Charlene Haddock Seigfried effectively reunites two major social and philosophical movements, arguing that pragmatism, because of its focus on the emancipatory potential of everyday experiences, offers feminism its most viable and powerful philosophical foundation. With careful attention to their interwoven histories and contemporary concerns, Pragmatism and Feminism effectively invigorates both traditions, opening them to new interpretations and appropriations and asserting their timely philosophical relevance. This foundational work in feminist theory simultaneously invites and guides future scholarship in an area of rapidly emerging significance.

  • Publisher: MIT Press

Experts from a range of disciplines assess the foundations and implications of a novel action-oriented view of cognition. Cognitive science is experiencing a pragmatic turn away from the traditional representation-centered framework toward a view that focuses on understanding cognition as “enactive.” This enactive view holds that cognition does not produce models of the world but rather subserves action as it is grounded in sensorimotor skills. In this volume, experts from cognitive science, neuroscience, psychology, robotics, and philosophy of mind assess the foundations and implications of a novel action-oriented view of cognition. Their contributions and supporting experimental eviden...

Amo meu filho, detesto ser mãe. Em anos recentes, mulheres têm acionado as mídias sociais para debaterem uma série de problemáticas relacionadas à vivência feminina, à maternidade e à não maternidade. Demandas, contradições, piadas, desabafos, críticas, incentivos, disputas, conselhos, denúncias, ironias e gentilezas se emaranham das postagens às seções de comentários. A pesquisadora e escritora Ana Luiza de Figueiredo Souza mergulhou (e permanece mergulhada) nesse fenômeno para investigar os movimentos históricos por trás dele, quais conjunturas políticas, econômicas, socioculturais e tecnológicas permitem que ele aconteça, junto a atritos e redes de apoio que surgem entre mulheres com posicionamentos e trajetórias distintas. Baseado em pesquisa vencedora do Prêmio Compós e na própria atuação em campo da pesquisadora, o livro apresenta um original e necessário panorama sobre as tensões que perpassam a delicada — e não por isso menos intensa — relação entre mulheres com ou sem filhos e aquilo que foi construído como destino de todas elas: a maternidade.

Radical Enactivism

"This collection is a much-needed remedy to the confusion about which varieties of enactivism are robust yet viable rejections of traditional representationalism approaches to cognitivism – and which are not. Hutto's paper is the pivot around which the expert commentators, enactivists and non-enactivists alike, sketch out the implications of enactivism for a wide variety of issues: perception, emotion, the theory of content, cognition, development, social interaction, and more. The inclusion of thoughtful replies from Hutto gives the volume a further degree of depth and integration often lacking in collections of essays. Anyone interested in assessing the current cutting-edge developments in the embodied and situated sciences of the mind will want to read this book."Ron Chrisley, University of Sussex, UK

Heidegger Explained is a clear and thorough summary of the philosophy of Martin Heidegger (1889–1976). It gives a fascinating explanation of all stages of Heidegger’s life and career, and shows his entire philosophy to emerge from one simple but profound insight. Many philosophers believe that Heidegger was the greatest philosopher of the twentieth century. His influence has long been felt not just in philosophy, but also in such fields as art, architecture, and literary studies. Yet the great difficulty of Heidegger’s terminology has often scared away interested readers lacking an academic background in philosophy. Author Graham Harman shows that Heidegger is actually one of the simpl...
