New Release: Christian Danz (ed.), “Religionsphilosophie nach Schelling” (J.B. Metzler, 2024)

Barbara Santini // Dec 13, 2024

We are glad to give notice of the release of the volume Religionsphilosophie nach Schelling. Mythos und Offenbarung, edited by Christian Danz (J.B. Metzler, 2024).

From the publisher’s website:

F.W.J. Schelling (1775–1854) gehört zu den wichtigsten Repräsentanten des sogenannten Deutschen Idealismus. Sein Werk ist grundlegend für die Entstehung der modernen Religionsphilosophie, die sich in den 1790er Jahren in Folge der Vernunftkritik Immanuel Kants als eigenständige akademische Disziplin etabliert hat. Der Band präsentiert erstmals Schellings Religionsphilosophie in hermeneutisch-werkgeschichtlichen und systematischen Perspektiven. Auf diese Weise führen die Beiträge des Bandes nicht nur in die komplexe Entstehungsgeschichte der Religionsphilosophie vor dem Hintergrund der Debatten der Aufklärung ein, sondern rekonstruieren die werkgeschichtliche Herausbildung von Schellings Religionsverständnis bis hin zu dessen Spätwerk und loten die Bedeutung seiner Religionstheorie für gegenwärtige Debatten in Philosophie und Theologie aus.

International conference: “Kant-siderations. Three Hundred Years of Immanuel Kant: Sources, Interpretations, Contemporary Resonances” (Rome, 13-14 December 2024)

francesco campana // Dec 12, 2024

We are glad to give notice of the international conference Kant-siderations. Three Hundred Years of Immanuel Kant: Sources, Interpretations, Contemporary Resonances, which will take place on December 13th-14th, 2024, at the Roma Tre University (13th December: Sala Professori, 1st floor, Via Ostiense 236; 14th: Aula Matassi, FILCO.SPE, Via Ostiense 236).

Organizing Committee: Francesca Iannelli, Gabriele Schimmenti.

Scientific Committee: Jörg Hüttner, Francesca Iannelli, Gabriele Schimmenti, Martin Walter.

Below you can find the general presentation of the event and the program.

***

The conference KANT-SIDERATIONS / KANT-SIDERAZIONEN intends to explore – through the contribution of Italian and international experts – different and multifaceted dimensions connected to the thought of Immanuel Kant, on the occasion of the tricentenary of the philosopher’s birth (1724-1804).

The conceptual need to continue reflecting, even today, on the thought and legacy of Immanuel Kant is not only due to the fact that he is a philosopher who marked an irreversible turning point in the history of thought and made a substantial contribution to the history of logic, rationality, aesthetics and ethical autonomy, but also to the importance of the prosecution of a discussion with a philosopher who has been the subject of wide-ranging and multifaceted reflection by authoritative intellectuals of 20th and 21st century Italian philosophy.

In fact, national and international research on Kant is still very prolific today, both from a philological and interpretative point of view, and increasingly willing to measure itself against the challenges of the contemporary in the most various fields and with a transdisciplinary vocation, three aspects on which the conference will focus. First of all, the discovery of new, unpublished manuscript sources will be presented; then an attempt will be made to assess the theoretical value of interpretations and reinterpretations of Kant’s philosophy in Italy; and a number of investigative perspectives will be proposed in the current international comparison with Kant’s philosophy.

The conference will therefore be divided into three thematic sections, which will address the following dimensions:

1. The new unpublished sources of Kant’s thought. This section will present the discovery of the aforementioned new manuscript sources / The sources of Kant’s thought, i.e. the relationship between Kant’s thought and the sources of his time.
2. The interpretations of Kant, i.e. the reception of his thought in the 19th and 20th centuries in Italy, but also in Europe.
3. The new contemporary and transdisciplinary (artistic, scientific, etc.) interpretations and resonances of Kant’s philosophy, i.e. its reception from the second half of the twentieth century to the present day with respect also to urgent issues of our time (such as environmental ethics or gender studies).

Finally, there will be a concluding Think Tank for students, PhD students and interested members of the public entitled Sprache mit Blick auf Kant / Kant’s language to reflect together on the relationship between Kant’s language, translation and the dissemination of philosophy.

International conference: “Persönlicher Gott oder ‘Ichloser’ Grund? Kants Argumentationen und Henrichs Interpretation” (Linz, 19-20 December, 2024)

Giulia Bernard // Dec 11, 2024

We are glad to give notice of the International Conference Persönlicher Gott oder ‘Ichloser’ Grund? Kants Argumentationen und Henrichs Interpretation which will take place on December 19th-20th, 2024, at the KU Linz (Katholische Privat-Universität Linz, Bethlehemstraße 20, 4020 Linz).

Organisation: Michael Hofer, Rolando González Padilla, Thomas Hanke, and Rudolf Langthaler.

Below you can find the general presentation of the event and the program.

***

Kant hat sich zeit seines Lebens mit der Gottesfrage auseinandergesetzt. Im Rahmen seiner Begründungsbemühungen ist immer wieder von einem „Urwesen“, einem „Urgrund“ und von der „Gottheit“ die Rede. In welchem Verhältnis stehen diese Begriffe? Handelt es sich dabei um eine Zunahme an Bestimmtheit und bedarf es in Kants Moralphilosophie eines persönlichen Gottes? Oder wird, so Henrichs Interpretation, in der Kritik der Urteilskraft ein Bruch markiert zwischen moralischer Weltordnung und dem Gottesbegriff? Legt Kant den Gedanken nahe, einen persönlichen Gott zugunsten eines „ichlosen Grundes“ aufzugeben? Ziel der Tagung ist es, Bestimmung und Funktion des Gottesbegriffs in Kants Argumentationen zu erheben und entlang von Henrichs Interpretation zu diskutieren.

Im Jahr 2024 wird der 300. Geburtstag Immanuel Kants (* 22.4.1724) begangen. Außerdem jährt sich der Todestag von Dieter Henrich († 17.12.2022) zum zweiten Mal. Das Institut für Theoretische Philosophie nimmt das – in Kooperation mit dem Seminar für Philosophische Grundfragen der Theologie an der Universität Münster und gemeinsam mit Rudolf Langthaler (Universität Wien) – zum Anlass, eine internationale Tagung auszurichten.

Exhibition: “The Art of Mediation” (Rome, 9-14 December 2025)

francesco campana // Dec 9, 2024

We are pleased to give notice of the exhibition The Art of Mediation by artist Mohaddeseh Rabbaninia, curated by Francesca Iannelli and Chiara Magni. The exhibition is hosted in the Foyer of the Aula Magna at the Department of Philosophy, Communication, and Performing Arts, Roma Tre University (Via Ostiense 234/236), from December 9 to 14, 2024. Exhibition hours are Monday to Friday, from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. To book a visit, please email artofmediation2024@gmail.com.

For the occasion, a vernissage of the exhibition, with the artist present, is scheduled for December 9 at 4 p.m. in the ‘Sala Professori’ (First Floor, Via Ostiense 234/236). On December 10, a workshop titled Cross-cultural and Interdisciplinary Communication: The Women’s Contribution will take place in the ‘Aula Magna’ (Via Ostiense 234/236) from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

***

THE EXHIBITION aims to explore the complex relationship between feminine and collective narratives, as well as the ambiguous interplay between memory and the destructive forces of history. The term ‘mediation’ is borrowed from Hegelian philosophy, which provides the backdrop for the Bildungsprozess explored in the exhibition. Additionally, through the artistic medium, key themes from the PRIN project Hegelian Constellation of the Feminine: A Hyper-archive for an Inclusive Bildung will be examined: from Hegel’s interactions with the female figures of his time in the biographical, aesthetic-artistic, and social spheres, to the direct or indirect impact they had on the philosopher’s life and thought, shedding light on their resistance, opacity, and contradictions.

MOHADDESEH RABBANINIA is a Ph.D. candidate in Philosophy at the University of Isfahan, Iran. Her research focuses on the Philosophy of Art and German philosophy, particularly Hegel’s Aesthetics. She has authored several articles on “Greek tragedy from the perspective of Hegel” and “The Other in Literature from Bakhtin’s Point of View”, which have been published in journals such as Metaphysics and collections of International Conferences on Literature and Intercultural Philosophy. In addition to her academic work in the philosophy of art, she has also pursued painting and has participated in several exhibitions, including international cultural and artistic events in Iran, Russia, and the United States.

CFA: “Hegel, Kant, and the Critique of Pure Reason” (Coimbra, 10 March 2025)

Giulia La Rocca // Dec 9, 2024

We are glad to give notice that the call for abstracts for the international workshop “Hegel, Kant, and the Critique of Pure Reason” is now open. The workshop will take place on March 10th, 2025, at the University of Coimbra, Institute for Philosophical Studies (IEF).

Organizer of the event is Bernardo Ferro (University of Coimbra).

Confirmed keynote speakers are Karin de Boer (KU Leuven), Diogo Ferrer (University of Coimbra).

Please find below the abstract of the workshop, as well as the information on the call for abstracts.

***

Hegel’s criticisms of Kant’s epistemology are famously outlined in texts such as the Phenomenology of Spirit, the Encyclopaedia or the Lectures on the History of Philosophy. In these works, Hegel praises Kant for overcoming the dogmatism inherent both to empiricism and to classical metaphysics, but opposes the dualism he associates with the Kantian conception of human cognition. However, this well-known criticism tends to overshadow the different and important ways in which Hegel is indebted to Kant’s theoretical philosophy, and particularly to the Critique of Pure of Reason. This workshop aims to revisit and reassess Hegel’s reading of the First Critique, in order to bring out its complexity, importance and enduring relevance.

Submission guidelines:

We welcome the participation of PhD students, early career researchers and established scholars.
To participate, please submit an abstract of up to 400 words (in English, German or French) by January 10th, 2025. The abstract should be sent to iestudosfilosoficos@gmail.com, attached to an email with the subject “HKCPR Abstract”, along with your name and affiliation and a brief biographical note.

Successful applicants will be notified in January and will be offered up to 30 minutes to present their paper, followed by 10 minutes of discussion. The presentations will be in English, German and/or French.

New Release: «Rivista di Estetica»: “Speculative Thinking” (LXIV, 86/2024)

hegelpd // Dec 7, 2024

We are glad to give notice of the release of the new issue of «Rivista di Estetica» (LXIV, 86/2024): Speculative Thinking, edited by Giulia Bernard, Luca Illetterati, and Zdravko Kobe.

Below you can find the rationale of the issue and the table of contents.

***

The concept of speculative thinking is in many ways ambiguous. First, the concept of ‘speculation’ refers, on the one hand, to philosophical research, i.e., to the need for philosophy to remain committed to ‘pure’ thought and not to bend to instances allogenous to conceptual ones, while, on the other hand, it refers to financial transactions, aimed at profiting from fluctuations in market prices.
Second, even within philosophical discourse, the term remains equivocal. At times, ‘speculation’ refers to an inquiry that – precisely by being merely speculative – seems detached from the practical concerns of the world, thereby indicating the essential theoretical element of philosophical inquiry; at others, the term marks the extreme experience of thinking in which ordinary discursiveness touches its limits. After a period of relative oblivion, the notion of the ‘speculative’ has returned today within contemporary philosophical debate.
This special issue focuses on the notion of ‘speculative thinking’, both in its Hegelian and neo-Hegelian interpretations and in contexts that partially diverge from that tradition, aiming to philosophically explore the term’s rich and varied meanings.

New release: P. D. Bubbio and A. Buchwalter (eds.), “Justice and Freedom in Hegel” (Routledge, 2024)

Giovanni Mezzavilla // Dec 5, 2024

We are glad to give notice of the book Justice and Freedom in Hegel, edited by P. D. Bubbio and A. Buchwalter. (Routledge, 2024).

From the publisher’s website:

This volume explores the relationship between justice and freedom in Hegel’s practical philosophy, with a particular focus on the pivotal concept of reciprocal recognition. The contributors analyze the intersubjective relations between individuals and institutions through the lens of Hegel and demonstrate how his account of justice and freedom can be applied to address pressing issues in political philosophy.

Despite extensive scrutiny of the concept of justice by political philosophers, Hegel’s unique account has been notably overlooked. What sets Hegel apart is his emphasis on the inseparable link between justice and freedom. Freedom is inextricably tied to an account of just social relations and institutions, while justice itself is intertwined with a robust endorsement of freedom. The chapters comprising this volume examine three crucial dimensions of Hegel’s framework for freedom and justice. First, the contributors address how Hegel’s distinctive integration of freedom and justice sheds new light on the nature of his practical philosophy. Second, they relate Hegel’s theory to other prominent accounts of justice, including Rawlsian forms of Kantian constructivism, Habermas’ neo‑Kantian discourse theory, republican views, neo‑Aristotelian accounts, and critical theory approaches. Finally, the contributors apply Hegel’s reconstructed theory of justice to ongoing debates encompassing criminal justice, distributive justice, global justice, environmental justice, and issues related to racial and gender justice, as well as populism.

Justice and Freedom in Hegel will appeal to scholars and advanced students engaged in research on Hegel’s practical philosophy, 19th‑century philosophy, and political philosophy.

New Release: Giovanni Andreozzi, “Alterità, critica, intersoggettività. Il contributo della Scienza della logica di Hegel alla Teoria critica” (Orthotes, 2024)

Giulia La Rocca // Dec 2, 2024

We are glad to give notice of the release of the book Alterità, critica, intersoggettività. Il contributo della Scienza della logica di Hegel alla Teoria critica, by Giovanni Andreozzi (Orthotes, 2024).

From the publisher’s website:

Gli esiti del pensiero contemporaneo pongono la necessità di ripensare la relazione tra i soggetti in modo da conservare sia l’istanza individuale – l’autorealizzazione – sia la reciprocità universale – ciò che impedisce a quell’istanza di convertirsi in irrigidimento e chiusura del sé. In termini propriamente speculativi, ci troviamo di fronte al problema di “comprendere l’alterità” e dunque, al contempo, il suo rapporto con la dialettica. Dialettica e alterità possono esser pensate solo nel loro rapporto e quindi nella reciproca limitazione.

La logica speculativa intende offrire una configurazione di questo rapporto mostrando come la realizzazione di ogni singola determinazione logica-ontologica possa avvenire solo nella relazione-ad-altro. Comprendere l’alterità attraverso la Scienza della logica significa situarsi a un livello diverso da quello delle prospettive anti-dialettiche – l’esplosione delle differenze – o dalle prospettive dialogiche – l’alterità come sfondo reiterativo dell’argomentazione. Significa comprendere l’alterità come strutturazione logico-ontologica delle determinazioni, che Hegel denomina negatività autoriferita.
