In this article we intend undertake a reading of ancient judaism, or veterotestamentary, in some of its main aspects, in contrast to the Machiavellian view of the role of religion in the organization and expansion of the State. The first step of this enterprise will be given by exposing the founding and delineanting features of the ancient Jewish tradition, especially in the books that make up the so-called Old Testament, demonstranting the using of religion in the ordination and expansion of the State, as well as in the formation of the individual. In a second moment we will demonstrate how to create a new Jewish tradition, influenced and influential on the ancient Greek world, early in the Christian era which will be assimilated and explored in its mystical bias in Renaissance humanism. This Hellenistic Judaism tradition will be best known and assimilated in the European erudite circles of the Renaissance. Finally, we will try to demonstrate how the constitutive features of ancient Judaism, to the detriment of Hellenistic Judaism, can be read in the light of Machiavellian description of the role of religion in the organization and expansion of the State and the formation of the individual.

The purpose of this article is to try to clarify the origins and philosophical importance of the concept of objective logical validity in Frege's thinking. Our argument will try to locate Frege's philosophy within an analytic semantic tradition that arises in the nineteenth century through the thinking of Bolzano and Lotze and which is also characterized by antinaturalism, antipsychologism and by the belief in an a priori objectivity as a characteristic of logically valid units, but not real. The article will identify common points between the philosophy of these three thinkers, but above all, we want to seek in the philosophies of Bolzano and Lotze the roots to understand the distinction between the three kingdoms and the Platonic semanticism present in Frege's philosophy.

The objective this article is to investigate the problem of the formalism in moral giving emphasis to G. W. F. Hegel and its Philosophy of Right as proposal of objectivation of the normative contents of acting. The intention is to present the version of Hegel for the problem of the formalism in relation the determination of acting in the sphere ethical, politics and legal. For the concretion of such task it is necessary to investigate the consideration concerning the 'Moralität and Sittlichkeit', estimated basic to build a project stuffed for a 'Philosophy of Right' and the figure of the State politician. The contributions of Hegel to effectuate the proposal of overcoming of the formalism if find in 'Grundlinien der Philosophie des Rechts: Über die wissenscaftischen Behandlungsarten der Naturrechts and Phänomenologie des Geistes'. The author apresents a clarification some of the main aspects in such a way of the objections how much of the attempts of reply to the problem.

Montaigne and Diderot were philosophers, humanists, and defenders of critical skepticism. His writings are characterized by a fluid, private, and comic writing style. In Diderot we see a philosopher playwright, author and critical theatrical. In Montaigne a non-academic philosopher, a magistrate averse to the perfectionism of scholastic philosophy, which instituted a new style of writing. There is a common trait in how they both understand philosophy. For Montaigne and Diderot, ethics and aesthetics are two domains of philosophy that have a close relationship. The work of art is an essential element that has the power to awaken the human spirit and lead it to the experience of true virtue.

The present article has the objective of deepening the debate about the notion of musical experience, explaining the epistemological aspects of a philosophical interpretation that we call symbolic-transcendental. It is the theoretical project initiated by Ernst Cassirer, and taken up by Susanne Langer, who argues that the manifestations of Culture are particular symbolic forms, namely: knowledge, language, myth, religion and art, from which it is possible to the human spirit to mean the real in an objective way. The capacity to symbolize, in turn, is constituted as a result of an operative function, transcendental and valid a priori, which is the foundational aspect that marks the difference between men and animals, for example. In order for the musical experience to be understood in terms of the symbolic-transcendental interpretation that we will construct here, we will undertake an argumentative course whose three central moments are: i) the understanding of art as a particular symbolic form, ii) the distinction between art and language as symbolic forms and as a necessary condition for the theory of art of Susanne Langer and iii) the constitutive aspects of musical experience (signification, production and reception).

When we talk about Philosophy, we report to the European thinking as the center of a great phylosophical reflexion, that's correct in part of it. Althought, more than thinking the Philosophy as the center, it's importante to open possibilities from it, because there are new dialogues and epistemics crosses to be done in the Philosophy. The text below proposes to think about an Afro concepts like a way to do Philosophy. In this situation, We propose to analyse Banzo concept in the way Afro perspectivism. Therefore, we get to start of an African Philosophy and Afro Brazilian into an existential phenomenological to know: Banzo is understood as an existencial concept.
