It defends Strauss's thesis that myth is a story constructed by the symbolic function inherent to the human mind. To demonstrate this, Correia closely investigates and analyzes some of Wagner's myths, including Parsifal and The Ring of the Nibelung. Following this analysis, Correia considers the way the French anthropologist analyzed and interpreted them.

Para esse efeito, esclarecem-se os conceitos de “liberdade” e de “arte”. No primeiro caso, o da liberdade, defende-se a autonomia da obra de arte em relação aos contextos psicológicos e políticos que presidiram à sua criação. No segundo caso, o da arte, discute-se a tese de Morris Weitz de que não é possível pensar-se uma definição de obra de arte. Tendo em consideração as reflexões de Markus Gabriel sobre a arte, sustenta-se uma nova caracterização da natureza da obra artística a partir de uma definição robusta, mas não-rígida de arte.

Neste ensaio, procuramos mostrar que, na raiz deste problema, se encontra uma interrogação mais vasta, a de saber se o gesto interpretativo é universal em todas as áreas do conhecimento humano. Enquanto a proposta de Dilthey consistiu em mostrar que a esfera das humanidades, das ciências do espírito, tinha uma lógica distinta daquela que encontramos nas ciências naturais, pelo contrário, Gadamer sustenta que o acto compreensivo inerente à interpretação da linguagem é universal, eliminando assim não só a dicotomia entre ciências exactas e humanas, mas, também, mostrando que não é possível qualquer acto significativo da linguagem sem a presença de uma compreensão interpretativa do mesmo.

The definition of a personal identity across time is provided. Insofar as it is feasible, such a criteria describes the requirements that must be met in order for people to survive. According to John Locke, psychological continuity determines one's personal identity. He believed that the foundation of one's personal identity, or "self," was awareness, namely recollection, rather than the substance of either the soul or the body. We sustain in this essay, that the criterion of personal identity for Locke is not memory but consciousness. Therefore, for Locke, memory is the power of knowledge of the same consciousness.

Post-culture is associated with the loss of ties of cultural identity derived from globalization. The response of Western societies has been unfortunate, based on so-called multicultural policies. Instead of assuming its cosmopolitan dimension, already prefigured by Kant, communities are split into micro-communities that havetorn the western world apart. This was the result of the unresolved tension between Enlightenment and Romantic values.

This will be a comparative study of mythology about the origin of the world, pinpointing the philosophical principles guiding that knowledge. Usually, studies on cosmogony within anthropology and comparative mythology aren’t categorical – meaning to aim towards a universal model – and when they are, they fail, because they are too close to the visual representations they aim to explain.

d’Amour (1983), o mito fundador dessa mesma cultura, a saber, o mito de Narciso.
Defendemos neste ensaio que o mito clássico de Narciso, mais do que ser um apólogo moral de crítica ao egocentrismo, deve ser antes interpretado como a descrição mitológica do processo de autoconhecimento.

However, it is also true - as paradoxical as it might sound - that religion has been the privileged field to limit all kinds of violence in human societies.

One of them, privileged by science, gives account of the objective and neutral side of reality. However, while not depreciating it, in this way it translates a third-person view, a view of nowhere, in which the experiential, not the experimental, is denied. On the contrary, the inner experience translates a mode of observation of the phenomena in which the concern is to translate the way they are lived. Inner experience is not to be confused with consciousness, although it is present in it. Now, according to Bataille, the most intense experience coincides with eroticism, not so much of bodies or souls, but of sacred eroticism. In strict terms, it is a pleonasm, insofar as eroticism and the sacred are the same.

The traditional interpretation of Schopenhauer's "The World as Will and Representation" sustains ... more The traditional interpretation of Schopenhauer's "The World as Will and Representation" sustains the antinomy between the World as Will, considered as blind desire, and the World as Representation, as a rational but illusory view of reality. We'll argue that the notion of representation beyond the principle of reason, and of the will beyond nihilist desire gives us a new view of reality beyond the World itself. To understand our thesis we must acknowledge the impact of Plato's philosophy on Schopenhauerian metaphysics. The World as Will and Representation seems fairly simple to describe, either in the1818's four books first edition, or in the 1844's second edition (containing a second supplementary book to each of the original four books). The first book shows us the world, as we perceive it, as plain representation, in which the term "representation" must be understood as appearance and not as reality. The second book argues reality is, essentially, will, considered prima facie as blind and inexorable desire bringing nothing but suffering to those who live it. The third book stands for art as a mental sublimation for pacifying suffering, as a palliative. Finally, the fourth book suggests compassion and mysticism as a way of freeing ourselves from that suffering as they are the expression of radical renunciation to will, that way allowing closeness to the much-aspired emptiness and nothingness, in this nihilist and pessimist view. We'll argue this interpretation, although generally supported, is superficial and doesn't take into consideration the relevance of platonic reasoning and the Upanishads in Schopenhauer's work. As the author himself highlights,

Even when the author considered other questions such as the experience of time or the nature of the work of art, what motivated her was to unveil the underlying ethical principles.

The human ability to conceive of a view from nowhere, of a God‘s eye, in other words, the ability to grasp a question from a third person point of view without losing sight of the first person view, appears to be unique. But it also asserts that it is impossible to solve the problem of personal identity using the strategy of the third person view.

Organised by the Centre of Philosophy of the University of Lisbon, CFUL, the Art History Institute of the Faculdade de Ciências Sociais e Humanas, (NOVA), and by the Sociedad Española de Estética y Teoría de las Artes (SEyTA), the call for papers invited researchers to address the main issues related to intimacy, both from the point of view of aesthetics and artistic creation.
In such context, the proposed theme of intimacy focused on two distinct but complementary directions. On the one hand, upstream, we aimed to address the public and private nature of aesthetic feelings and, on the other hand, downstream, we wished to analyse how artistic creation deals with intimacy in human relations. Reflecting on the role of aesthetics and art in the creation of a sense of belonging and identity, we set ourselves to address themes such as Aesthetics and Intimacy, Art and Intimacy, and Intimacy and Identity.

Para Beckert, estes dois problemas são indissociáveis, mas não se confundem. Por um lado, existem as questões relacionadas com os princípios éticos que devem reger a nossa relação com os animais. Mas, por outro, existem dilemas que se prendem com a conservação do ambiente, cuja resolução é crucial para que possa existir um desenvolvimento económico e social sustentável. Em termos genéricos, pode-se dizer que a primeira questão se prende com o que habitualmente se designa por " direitos dos animais " , enquanto a segunda ordem de problemas se articula com as preocupações ecológicas e ambientais. Estes dois tipos de problemas são indissociáveis, na medida em que o respeito pelos princípios de conservação natural criam as condições para que a biodiversidade se mantenha e, nessa medida, as diferentes espécies animais possam florescer em vez de serem condenadas a uma extinção artificial. Por sua vez, o respeito ético pelos seres sencientes, na medida em que têm uma vida autónoma, capacidade de sofrimento e representação da realidade, devem, segundo Beckert, ser tidos em conta, o que implica a consideração humana pelo ambiente. Os animais possuem valor intrínseco, não tanto porque sejamos nós, seres humanos, a conferi-lo, mas porque, na sua autonomia, manifestam interesses que lhe são específicos, valorizando, a seu modo, a realidade circundante. São, pode-se assim dizer, sujeitos de valores. Poder-se-á dizer o mesmo da Natureza? Segundo Beckert, a Natureza traduz a realidade como um todo e, como tal, transcende qualquer plano axiológico. Tal não impede, antes exige, que o ambiente propício à vida seja motivo de cuidada atenção ética. Afinal, a conservação da esfera biótica constitui, como o próprio nome já, em si, indicia, o plano sine qua non da florescência das entidades vivas. Uma das preocupações centrais de Beckert consiste em reflectir sobre a existência, ou não, de graus de senciência distintos, de forma a que o princípio prudencial da acção se possa exercer com legitimidade. Por um lado, existem seres que não são dotados de um sistema nervoso central, mas que denotam sensibilidade. Tal facto deriva da situação orgânica de possuírem neurónios ao longo do seu corpo, permitindo-lhes registar quaisquer alterações sofridas, sejam elas externas e/ou internas. Mas a questão mais delicada, para Beckert, prende-se com o grau de senciência das diferentes entidades vivas nas quais é possível surpreender a centralização do sistema nervoso. O sistema nervoso central cria uma reduplicação da experiência, autorizando a hipótese de possuírem um plano representacional do mundo. Será que, no limite, todas as entidades se situam no mesmo nível ou, pelo contrário, a presença de faculdades como a memória, a inteligência, entre

consciousness, Thomas Nagel (Mind and Cosmos. Why the Materialist Neo-
Darwinian Conception of Nature is Almost Certainly False, 2012). Although
the author points out to some intuitions sustained by Spinoza, Hegel and
Schelling, I’ll sustain that we must also rethink Leibniz’s project of a
monadology to understand the real purpose of Nagel’s thesis.
