The concept of exteriorization is not important within the phenomenological tradition as has within the philosophy of technology. However, one of the crucial problems highlighted by Derrida’s critique of
Husserl is the problem of expression, which is undoubtedly closely linked to the problem of exteriorization. Husserl recognizes the need to distinguish between two different kinds of signifiers, namely, expressions and indications. The essay aims to analyse the theoretical legitimacy of this distinction. Behind this issue lies another problem, namely, understanding the relationship between language and technology. If it is true that exteriorization is one of the essential characteristics, of technology, analysing the distinction between indications and expressions means questioning the connection between technology and language.

The first section poses the problem of exteriorization from a general perspective, in which the reference to the life sciences and the biological sciences is central; the second section tightens the field, analysing the question of exteriorization from a more anthropological perspective; in the third, the reference to Derrida, Stiegler and the problems of writing and memory is central; finally, in the last section, the problem of exteriorization is approached from a perspective closer to media theory.

Uno sguardo-attraverso (Roma 2020), uno dei libri più importanti di Emilio Garroni e uno dei testi di riferimento dell'estetica italiana del secolo scorso. Trent'anni dopo la sua prima pubblicazione, benché l'orizzonte degli studi di estetica sia profondamente mutato, questo libro rimane attuale. In questo articolo vorrei mostrare le ragioni di questa attualità, analizzando il problema dell'esemplarità dell'arte.

Non è un caso che i più recenti lavori di due pensatori che si richiamano direttamente a Derrida, Ferraris e Stiegler, siano dedicati alla rete e alle tecnologie digitali. Cercherò, dunque, di mostrare in che modo un pensiero “grammatologico” possa essere utile per comprendere la rete, facendo riferimento prima a Derrida, poi a Stiegler e successivamente a Ferraris. Nell’ultimo paragrafo cercherò di mostrare cosa significa decostruire la rete, rileggendo un noto testo di Pariser: Il filtro.

The interpretation that I will propose does not refer primarily to Heidegger-the author of one of the most discussed readings of the Critique of Pure Reason-but rather to Husserl's The Phenomenology of Internal Time-Consciousness. I would like to show that, using the Husserlian theory of intuitive acts, it is possible to rethink the distinction between productive and reproductive imagination, accounting for some of the contradictions in the Kantian texts.

Cercando una risposta a queste domande, l’autore attraversa la storia dell’estetica, presentando un’analisi chiara, ma anche approfondita, di alcuni problemi filosofici controversi, che sono ancora oggi rilevanti.

Garroni Estetica. Uno sguardo attraverso. I will try to show that, from Garroni's point of view, the work of art can be considered an exemplary object for two reasons: firstly because it has a normative value, in the sense that it establishes a new rule; secondly because the rule it establishes cannot be translated into conceptual terms. In the second part of the essay, I will use the notion of exemplarity to analyse some passages of the Critique of Judgment. I will argue that the distinction between reflective and determinative judgement can be rethought as a distinction between two different modes of exemplification. Finally, in the last part of the article, I will show that for Kant to present a concept means to exemplify it, and I will distinguish between the different modes of presentation (Darstellung) that are described in the First Critique and in the Third Critique. In particular, I will distinguish between: A) schematic presentation of a pure concept of the intellect; B) presentation of an empirical concept in an example; C) indirect presentation of an idea; D) schematic presentation of an empirical concept not yet known (exemplary case); E) aesthetic presentation of formal purposiveness of nature (in natural beauty); F) presentation (by the genius) of a rule of beautiful art.

The aim of this article is to highlight and discuss two problems of the biological philosophy of technology. In particular, I will analyse the work of André Leroi-Gourhan and Gilbert Simondon, and I will show that (a) the meaning of the analogy between technical and natural objects that underlies the approach of the biological philosophy of technology remains problematic and (b) the biological approach to technology is very effective for analysing tools and machines, but is not sufficient to describe the so-called information technologies. In the last part of the article, I will argue that, in order to understand information technologies, it is necessary to integrate the biological approach to technology with a grammatological approach. I will try to show that, next to the tool and the machine, there is a third category of technical objects that can be better described using the notion of "writing" proposed by one of the masters of the so-called French Thought, Jacques Derrida.

Hegel distinguishes two forms of memory: on the one hand, recollection (Erinnerung), which presents the past in an intuitive form, and on the other hand, memory (Gedächtnis), which is described as a psychic mechanism. The relationship between these two forms of memory leads one to think that technique is not only something that is outside consciousness, but also something that structures the space of interiority. In particular, in Derrida's texts we can find three arguments that support the paradoxical hypothesis of an interiority of technique: in all three arguments repetition is the essential problem. In order to analyse the relationship between memory and technique it is therefore necessary to understand the meaning that repetition assumes in the psychic life of the subject.

teorici della semiotica di Umberto Eco e riprendendo in particolare la distinzione tra
testi chiusi e testi aperti. Nella seconda parte dell’articolo viene affrontato il problema del
significato culturale e politico della rivoluzione tecnologica che si è verificata con la
diffusione planetaria del Web. Facendo riferimento al pensiero di Bernard Stiegler, l’autore
propone una prospettiva farmacologica, che evidenzia i pericoli, ma anche le opportunità
che derivano dalla diffusione globale della rete internet.

This interpretation is explicitly banned by Eco. Starting from the 80's he began a polemic against theories that seem to deny any limit to interpretation. Deconstruction is often mentioned as the most important example of these kind of theories. However Eco criticizes the most popular and untrustworthy interpretation of deconstruction. The aim of this paper is to show that the contrast between Eco's theory and deconstruction is not so evident as he would like to believe.

Referring to the work of J. von Uexküll, I will define environment as the set of perceptual and operational possibilities that a living being projects into its surroundings. Recalling the distinction between world and environment proposed by Scheler and Heidegger, I will show that augmented perception implies a redefinition of the openness that defines the human world.

Mallarmé, Ponge, Artaud, Jabès, Joyce, Valéry, Adami sono alcuni dei protagonisti di un dialogo ininterrotto, che segna i passi fondamentali del cammino filosofico derridiano. In questo libro l'autore propone un commento critico dei saggi più significativi che Derrida ha dedicato alle arti e alla letteratura. Confrontarsi con questi testi, spesso oscuri ed enigmatici, significa accettare una sfida ermeneutica e cercare di "decifrare" gli innumerevoli significati nascosti tra le righe. Questo lavoro d'interpretazione produce un risultato duplice. Da una parte emerge chiaramente che, nonostante la diffidenza di Derrida nei confronti dell'estetica, l'incontro tra estetica e decostruzione è non solo possibile, ma anzi necessario. Dall'altra parte un'analisi approfondita dei testi consente di evidenziare i problemi e le difficoltà che sembrano caratterizzare l'approccio decostruzionista alle arti e ai testi letterari.

Reinterpretando il mito sull’origine della scrittura raccontato nel Fedro di Platone, Derrida ha mostrato quanto sia antico e in un certo senso inevitabile il problema del rapporto tra interiorità e esteriorità. Nello stesso tempo, legando l’esteriorizzazione alla tecnica, la grammatologia derridiana apre feconde prospettive di indagine sull’attualità. Storia e attualità sono le due direttrici lungo le quali il presente fascicolo de Lo sguardo intende sviluppare la questione dell’esteriorizzazione.
