New Directions : Dewey, Aesthetics, And Psychology, David Clark Apr 1992

New Directions : Dewey, Aesthetics, And Psychology, David Clark

Honors Theses

The purpose of this paper is to determine whether psychological information is relevant to solving aesthetic problems. Along the way I will point out that there are disparate senses of the word "psychology" and I will show how John Dewey can be perceived historically as an early contributor to what we now call "cultural psychology", which I believe is a viable alternative to experimental aesthetics.

The Midwest Quarterly: A Journal of Contemporary Thought

How closely do science and art approach truth, or approach each other? More nearly than one might think concludes WALTER CUMMINS. Professor of English at Fairleigh Dickinson University, Cummins has published many short stories and articles dealing with writing and communication.

SONIA KOVITZ looks into the ordeal of Simone Weil to find value in herself, a struggle in which she would never admit success, in order to consider the meaning of this universal passion. Formerly a teacher of Russian language and literature at Lawrence University and author of articles on Chekhov's fiction and drama, Kovitz is now Program Review Administrator …

Were The Neoplatonists Itealists Or Realists?, John Bussanich Mar 1992

Were The Neoplatonists Itealists Or Realists?, John Bussanich

The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter

Although it is relatively uncontroversial to characterize all Platonists as metaphysical idealists or immaterialists, the ascription to some of them of explicit arguments for epistemological idealism is controversial and problematic. It will be necessary to consider Neoplatonic attitudes toward perception of an external material world, but also the direct intellectual "perception" of the Forms.


The Absurdity Of Life, Steven Luper Mar 1992

The Absurdity Of Life, Steven Luper

Philosophy Faculty Research

In "The Absurd"1 Nagel claims that self-conscious human beings are necessarily absurd, so that to escape absurdity while remaining human we would have to cease being self-conscious. fifteen years later, in The View From Nowhere,2 he defends the same thesis, supplementing some of his old arguments with a battery of new ones. I want to suggest that Nagel has misdiagnosed, and exaggerated the inescapability of, our absurdity. He does so partly because the grounds on which he bases his conclusion are spurious, and partly because he does not acknowledge the extent to which we can eliminate absurdity …

Review Of Heidegger's Confrontation With Modernity: Technology, Politics, And Art By Michael E. Zimmerman, Albert Borgmann Mar 1992

Review Of Heidegger's Confrontation With Modernity: Technology, Politics, And Art By Michael E. Zimmerman, Albert Borgmann

Philosophy Faculty Publications

Michael Zimmerman has composed this book in two voices. One is the clear and generous voice that we have heard for two decades and that has made Zimmerman the foremost expositor of Heidegger in the English language....The second voice is bitterly critical of Heidegger and responds to the recent discussion of Heidegger's entanglements in reactionary and fascist politics.
