A mão esquerda da escuridão, de Ursula K. Le Guin, como experimento de pensamento: uma investigação do fazer literário como fazer filosófico
In: Griot: Revista de Filosofia, Band 21, Heft 3, S. 99-111
This essay intersects literature and epistemology in order to understand what it means to take "The left hand of darkness" (1969), as proposed by the author Ursula K. Le Guin, as a thought experiment. As we look at Science Fiction as a literary genre and how it relates to the notion of thought experiment, we conclude that Science Fiction authors, through the imaginary displacement they perform as they create people, worlds, political organizations, and explore the relations between subjects within these imaginary structures, also draw thought experiments that are able to deal with important aspects of the human experience.
A ciência pode tudo? Considerações éticas sobre tecnobiociência e valores a partir de Hans Jonas
In: Griot: Revista de Filosofia, Band 21, Heft 3, S. 164-173
In this article we intend to analyze the relationship between science and values from the philosophy of Hans Jonas. It starts with an analysis of the change identified by the author with regard to the new status of knowledge in modernity, which gives rise to the so-called technobioscience, born from the articulation between knowing and doing, in view of a new power. It is about showing how the old formulation of knowledge as contemplation gave way to the utilitarian idea of knowledge as exploration, although in such a version, the claim of neutrality and absolute freedom is maintained, characteristic of the old moral island represented by knowledge pre-modern. Jonas argues in favor of an articulation of technobioscience with ethics, in order to provide the values capable of guiding knowing, doing and power in technological civilization.
Sobre as paixões humanas em Thomas Hobbes
In: Griot: Revista de Filosofia, Band 21, Heft 3, S. 1-14
The article aims to identify as the main passions that run through the Hobbesian theoretical corpus. To this end, the exhibition will begin by analyzing the mechanism of the passions founded by the author. Next, it will be highlighted how unbridled passions make peaceful coexistence between individuals unfeasible, establishing a scenario in which conflicts are inevitable. Two passions will be analyzed in more detail: vainglory and fear. After emphasizing that the Hobbesian man tends naturally to his own benefit, to competition and to domination, representing a threat to the other, it will be pointed out how the State asserts itself as the necessary that aims to discipline like passions. This part of the argument will analyze as desirable passions for the maintenance of civil life, with emphasis on hope, the desire for comfort and delight, the desire for knowledge and the arts, as well as for fear and vainglory itself.
Corpo, cotidiano e reprodução: considerações sobre o neoliberalismo a partir de Silvia Federici
In: Griot: Revista de Filosofia, Band 21, Heft 3, S. 218-235
This paper seeks to present in detail Silvia Federici's considerations about neoliberalism, having as a center of discussion the way in which the body, reproduction and daily life are mobilized by the author. In this perspective, a materialistic condition of the way of becoming possible of individuals will be presented to the extent that we are fundamentally bodies whose connection to social totality is mediated by rooting in the situated particularity of daily life. Therefore, also dialoguing with other authors such as Simone de Beauvoir, Rosa Luxemburgo and Henri Lefebvre, it is a question of presenting the development of a perspective that places the daily reproduction of life as a central productive force for the social being and, sedimented as habits in the body, produces and reproduces ways of being, the basis from which considerations about neoliberal logic will be understood, and thus, the importance of Federici's feminist critical approach to the capitalist mode of production will be marked.
La philosophie de la mécanique quantique de Gaston Bachelard
In: Griot: Revista de Filosofia, Band 21, Heft 1, S. 180-194
Gaston Bachelard (1884-1962), French philosopher, followed a period of ruptures, that is, of conceptual and methodological changes in contemporary physics. He is one of several thinkers who presented important reflections for the understanding of contemporary atomistics. This article highlights the main philosophical reflections of Gaston Bachelard about the foundations of quantum mechanics. For that, it uses important concepts of its epistemology without which its ideas become incomprehensible. Thus, this work highlights how this science breaks with traditional scientific and philosophical ideas in the first half of the 20th century by presenting a new object of knowledge, namely, the quantum corpuscles. Furthermore, in order to characterize the philosophy of bachelardian quantum physics, according to the author, the nature of atomic particles stands out, as the scientific activity of this science in the creation of new phenomena is emphasized and its rationalism applied as philosophy is emphasized best suited to the new physics. Finally, it is emphasized in this work that Bachelard's ideas are different from other interpretations of quantum mechanics.
Epidemia da insônia: Kopenawa e a equivocidade do esquecimento
In: Griot: Revista de Filosofia, Band 21, Heft 2, S. 199-220
Friedrich Nietzsche said that transcendence and the negation of life, both proper of the autophagy of the West's reactive nihilism, were product of an excess of memory, embodied in resentment and "vengeful soul". On the other hand, to the Yanomami shaman Davi Kopenawa, indigenous leader and author of The Falling Sky together with the anthropologist Bruce Albert, the forgetfulness of the White people (nape pë) is responsible for their own decay - a decay that carries all non-White people with itself in a dizzying environmental and pandemic cataclysm of earthly scales; this is what Kopenawa and the Yanomami people call "falling sky". In this paper, one intends to deal with this equivocal and perspectivist sense of oblivion, as one sees in it a crucial philosophical question: how to understand the double crossing between oblivion and memory when one quits the Western philosophical discourse and goes on to the sayings of a Yanomami thinker? Was there an equivocation of oblivion at stake, in the sense that forgetfulness is always different depending on its direction?
Niilismo e Carta ao pai: Apontamentos entre filosofia e literatura
In: Griot: Revista de Filosofia, Band 21, Heft 1, S. 21-43
The present study is based on the relationship between philosophy and literature with Nietzsche and Kafka as the main authors studied. The central question of this study is how to comprehend some of Nietzsche's philosophy in Kafka's literary pieces? In this way, the goal is to analyze a potential reading of the concepts will of power and nihilism. The text's proposal develops in two moments: characterizing Nietzsche's philosophy with the will of power and nihilism concepts as main points of the books considered as "mature" written by this author and presenting Kafka's piece Carta ao pai as an alternative to overcome nihilism with the main starting point being the relationship between will of power and art characterized by a determined period in Nietzsche's philosophy as active nihilism. Thus, the text primes at developing not just a descriptive analysis through bibliographic research focusing on the cited manuscripts, but also searching fundaments to arguments made by some commentators of both authors in specific points.
A relação entre revolução e estado: crítica de Hannah Arendt ao modelo atual
In: Griot: Revista de Filosofia, Band 21, Heft 3, S. 121-133
In this text, we intend to develop the elements that make up the criticism that Hannah Arendt presents at the end of the interview granted to the German writer Adelbert Reif in the summer of 1970 to the concept of state and modern government, and that are not developed by Arendt at that moment. To this end, we will initially expose Arendt's criticism of the emptying of public space and the attempt to reduce political participation to the electoral process. To counteract these problems inherent to the modern concept of state and government, Hannah Arendt mentions, even slightly, the possibility of a council-state. However, in this text Arendt does not explore these concepts and experiences, but only relates them to the need for transformation of the modern concept of state and government, i.e., it allows the perception of the actuality of her previous reflection. In view of this, the hypothesis explored in this text is that this 1970 interview serves as a reading key to understand the relevance and actuality of the parallel between parties x council developed by the author in On Revolution in 1963 and adds a new element, namely, the theme of the need to institutionalize a forgotten experience: the councils.
