Has the proverbially "a(nti)-historical" analytic philosophy taken a "historical turn" as some analytic "insiders" have heralded recently? In this densely argued and extensively referenced book, Blagovest Mollov argues that it has not, mainly because the only relatively determinate meaning the term can be given derives from a dubious and equally vague "historicist" perspective. Outside, and even within, the latter, the author holds, what has come to be discussed as "the historical turn (of analytic philosophy)" is neither historical nor a turn, in the sense other " ... |

These essays bring together ideas and modes of expression from Vico, Hegel, Cassirer, and James Joyce. This work approaches philosophy as a form of literature and approaches literature as containing insights and images that supply a basis for philosophical thought.

By looking back at Plato's Laws, it is possible to conceive society as based on friendship rather than ideology. Considering the interrelationships among philosophy, society, and literature offers a ... |

"Философията: кому е нужна" е сборник с есета на Айн Ранд, издаден няколко месеца след смъртта й през 1982 г. под редакцията на Ленард Пейкоф. Неговата тема е философията изобщо. В заглавното есе Ранд доказва, че философията играе главна роля във всички човешки дейности, че в основата на всяко действие и всяка мисъл лежат определени предпоставки, които ние трябва да изучим. Но за да може една философска идея да функционира наистина като насока за живот, човек трябва да познава пълната система, към която тя принадлежи, както и връзката на идеята с другите идеи, които й дават контекст, определение, приложение, ... |

Философията представлява непрестанно търсене на мъдрост и знания; philosophia на старогръцки буквално означава любов към мъдростта. Нейната цел е да задава и изследва големите житейски въпроси, за да ни разкрива докъде можем да стигнем в търсенията си и как да живеем добър живот.

A reading of Hegel 's "Philosophy of Right". ... "From Logic to Politics" is a study of a promise: the promise of philosophy as universal science that could comprehend, connect and guide, and of politics made transparent for thinking. Hegel's "Philosophy of Right" is built on that promise, and set on the goal of grasping its time and providing the ground of modern politics int he idea of right. The fulfilment of this task is made possible in the light of the first, fundamental science, which for Hegel, has to replace metaphysics the "Science of Logic". This is, therefore, a ... |

Юбилеен сборник в чест на проф. д.ф.н. Нонка Богомилова. Съставители: Силвия Кръстева, Антоанета Николова. ... "Цялата пъстра палитра и човешкото богатство на житейско дело на проф. Богомилова провокира идеята да намерим отзвука и рефлексията на създаденото от нея в начинанието на този сборник. Отначало идеята много трудно намери съгласието на проф. Богомилова.
