The krisis of the ancient Greeks is not our modern concept of crisis, which has changed profoundly over time. What does it mean then? We need to go back to the sources of the notion, namely to the first Greek texts that give it a major place.

This book sets out to reinterrogate ethics and political philosophy starting from the concept of attention.
Perspectives éthiques, politiques et épistémologiques

That the end of art and the end of philosophy go hand in hand appears to be proven by our current civilisation. And yet, in probing once again the 20th century in its singularity as much of fascination as of horror, there is a chance to reconfigure the questions of the work of art and of the truth in discourse under the sign of the key problem that

Do we know what we are doing when we are reading texts ? Do we know what we are understanding when we become readers ?

Ethics philosophy always used the concepts of obligation, sanction, and of ethical models. Guyau, being a critical thinker of the idea of evolution, suggests that ethics should be considered in light of a vital imperative. He also deems that - if correctly understood- the anomic capacity of life generates a plurality of ways for obligation to...

Judging from the way it was received since Antiquity, the nature of Horace's Ars poetica should not be questioned. However, its stylistic and enunciative characteristics urge the readers to reconsider this old assumption

The examination of Humboldt's commentators eventually draws a contrasting image of his work, which is entirely devoted, notably through the study of linguistics and languages, to answering the fundamental question: what is man ?

Elucidate the enigma of language fiction by determining its real criteria, after eliminating false beliefs - this is the goal of this book. Admittedly, the matter was closed for several decades, but closed on grounds that don't stand a linguistic-philosophical examination.

We present two aspects of the mathematician Michel Parreau. In the first place the much appreciated lecture notes of his course in complex analysis. And in the second place his research on Riemann surfaces.

Is dialogue at the center of our social life ? Is it today a pillar of our democracy ? A remedy in the conflict, or a rampart against the passions and the violence? What exchanges does it allow between elected representatives and citizens, or between experts and laymen? This book tries to answer these questions using the criticism of the theories..

Giving and recognizing are two basic features of social human activities. But can they be considered as being perfectly identical? Besides, which links do they both have to the dimension of social domination? Those are the questions raised within the volume that crisscrosses different theoretical approaches in order to answer them.

The intelligence necessary to attribute meaning to literary texts relies on the intelligence embodied in the texts themselves. This thought leads Christoph König to ask : How shall we read the works of Schiller, Friedrich Schlegel, Uhland, Rilke, Kafka and Celan ?

Les mythes grecs et latins ont été transmis par les poètes et par les mythographes. Mais, quoique leur rôle ait été décisif, ces derniers ont été peu étudiés. Une des raisons en est que leur activité n'a jamais été constituée en genre, leurs pratiques étant aussi diverses que complexes. Ce volume, issu des travaux du groupe de recherches...

Dans les tragédies grecques, le savoir est souvent dangereux. L'universalité de leurs héros et la richesse des réécritures qu’ils ont inspirées tiennent en partie à leur capacité à incarner l’ambivalence d’une connaissance vitale et destructrice. La tragédie grecque est par nature un lieu privilégié de mise en œuvre des conflits intérieurs et...

Ce livre comble cette lacune et invente ainsi un nouvel objet, qui met en perspective les pratiques coopératives et collaboratives des artistes d’hier...
