Abstract

The essays collected in this volume concern the general question of truthmaking. Most of them also bear upon the metaphysical nature of truthmakers (moments, tropes, property-instances, Aristotelian substances, states of affairs, meanings or essences? ). Taking as their starting point a famous seminal paper by K. Mulligan, P. Simons and B. Smith, as well as D. Armstrong's outstanding contribution to the subject, they offer a fresh assay of the main concepts involved, in order to assess the explanatory value of truthmakers and truthmaker necessitarianism, and explore such delicate issues as contingent truth, bare possibility, tensed propositions, the ontological irreducibility of relations, the subsistence of facts and the epistemic role of negative truths. The collection as a whole provides a comprehensive and thought-provoking survey of the current debate about truthmaking theory and deserves to be read carefully by anyone interested in the relationship between language, thought and reality.

Abstract

Face au défi du kantisme triomphant, Maurice Blondel mettait en lumière la valeur de la quête métaphysique de l’homme. "Le philosophe d'Aix" est à la fois le penseur du sens de la vie et du « lien substantiel », sources d’inspiration en son temps d’une vision sociale et politique. Il propose en même temps de préciser et de renforcer les articulations entre philosophie et théologie. L’amour-caritas semble être le centre de perspective qui unifie tout le projet blondélien.

Abstract

« Comment traite-t-on les vies ? Que fait-on des morts ? Ou plutôt, que dit d’une société la manière dont elle considère certaines vies, vies de travailleurs, vies d’exilés, vies de prisonniers, vies rendues vulnérables, inégales ? Et que révèlent de ses valeurs la façon dont meurent certains de ces travailleurs, certains de ces exilés ou certains de ces prisonniers, la façon dont on les laisse mourir ou dont on les expose à la mort, la façon dont on détourne les yeux de leur condition ou dont on se mobilise pour les protéger ? Au fond, comment se définissent les économies morales de la vie et de la mort dans le monde contemporain ? Telles sont les questions posées dans ce livre à propos de trois objets au regard desquels elles s’avèrent particulièrement pertinentes : le travail, l’exil et la prison. Ce choix n’est pas neutre. Il vise à éclairer des lieux où, souvent, la précarité des vies est rendue invisible et la douleur des morts indicible. » Issu du colloque qui s’est tenu au Collège de France en juin 2021, ce volume réunit des anthropologues, des historiens et des sociologues dont le travail tant empirique que théorique interroge avec force et clarté les problématiques fondamentales de notre société.

Abstract

Although the creative impulse surges in revolt against everyday reality, breaking through its confines, it makes pacts with that reality’s essential laws and returns to it to modulate its sense. In fact, it is through praxis that imagination and artistic inventiveness transmute the vital concerns of life, giving them human measure. But at the same time art’s inspiration imbues life with aesthetic sense, which lifts human experience to the spiritual. Within these two perspectives art launches messages of specifically human inner propulsions, strivings, ideals, nostalgia, yearnings prosaic and poetic, profane and sacral, practical and ideal, while standing at the fragile borderline of everydayness and imaginative adventure. Art’s creative perduring constructs are intentional marks of the aesthetic significance attributed to the flux of human life and reflect the human quest for repose. They mediate communication and participation in spirit and sustain the relative continuity of culture and history.
