Abstract

Le présent livre 'VIII De phantaisia seu imaginatione se trouve dans la Physique du Syntagma', dans la partie qui concerne les êtres vivants ou animés, dont la rédaction se situe entre la moitié de 1644 et la fin de l?année suivante. Le livre est construit en six chapitres ; la thèse en est résumée à la fin du dernier. Dans l?ensemble, Gassendi articule de façon subtile des passages de doxographie et l?énoncé de sa propre position, qu?il désire situer par rapport à la tradition, procurant une démonstration à la fois historique et théorique. Le livre trouvant sa place à juste titre dans la Physique, c?est en naturaliste que Gassendi explore son objet : le rationalisme et le biologisme y trouvent une place essentielle. L?examen des doctrines antérieures auquel il se livre, comme il le fait presque systématiquement, ne prend en compte que celles qui envisagent l?imagination sous cet angle, excluant toute réflexion littéraire ou métaphysique sur l?imagination, 'folle du logis'. Il se montre très soucieux de mettre en place un vocabulaire précis, où la phantaisie est la notion majeure pour une réalité qu?il juge de la plus grande importance pour le fonctionnement cognitif et comportemental de l?homme et des animaux, soit le système psychologique.

Abstract

This volume draws a balanced picture of the Rationalists by bringing their intellectual contexts, sources and full range of interests into sharper focus, without neglecting their core commitment to the epistemological doctrine that earned them their traditional label. The collection of original essays addresses topics ranging from theodicy and early modern music theory to Spinoza’s anti-humanism, often critically revising important aspects of the received picture of the Rationalists. Another important contribution of the volume is that it brings out aspects of Rationalist philosophers and their legacies that are not ordinarily associated with them, such as the project of a Cartesian ethics. Finally, a strong emphasis is placed on the connection of the Rationalists’ philosophy to their interests in empirical science, to their engagement in the political life of their era, and to the religious background of many of their philosophical commitments.

Abstract

Inspired by the social theories of Max Weber, David d'Avray asks in what senses medieval religion was rational and, in doing so, proposes a new approach to the study of the medieval past. Applying ideas developed in his companion volume on Rationalities in History, he explores how values, instrumental calculation, legal formality and substantive rationality interact and the ways in which medieval beliefs were strengthened by their mutual connections, by experience, and by mental images. He sheds new light on key themes and figures in medieval religion ranging from conversion, miracles and the ideas of Bernard of Clairvaux to Trinitarianism, papal government and Francis of Assisi's charismatic authority. This book shows how values and instrumental calculation affect each other in practice and demonstrates the ways in which the application of social theory can be used to generate fresh empirical research as well as new interpretative insights.
