Abstract:
“Think of our world,” writes Robert Nozick, “as a novel in which you yourself are a character.” As we shall see, this is easier said than done. In that case, would the project be worth the effort? Yes, says Alexander Nehamas. In Nietzsche: Life as Literature, Nehamas suggests that we would have a better grasp of some hard doctrines of Nietzsche's, if we accepted literary texts as providing a model for the world, and literary characters as yielding models of ourselves. The idea is intriguing, in part because Nietzsche presents difficulties, and in part because it has some of the alluring obscurity of Nozick's playful charge. In what follows, however, I shall argue that Nehamas's proposals about Nietzsche and literature are not particularly helpful, that Nietzsche's doctrines remain hard to grasp even after we have considered the nature of literary texts, and that Nehamas himself is misled by ambiguities connected with literary characters and the fictional worlds they inhabit.

Abstract:
The topic of friendship is enjoying a renewed interest among political theorists and philosophers. The three books reviewed here join several other recent works on friendship and the creation of a journal of friendship studies,Amity. Despite their shared focus on friendship, the three works under review complement rather than duplicate one another. Alexander Nehamas's work is designed for a general readership, with scholarly nuance being largely relegated to the notes. The books by P. E. Digeser and Ann Ward are more typical academic publications. While Ward focuses almost exclusively on Aristotle, Nehamas and Digeser treat him as the touchstone for all later discussions of friendship in the Western tradition.

Abstract:
In September 2017 Alexander Nehamas kindly accepted our invitation to have a meeting in Athens in order to discuss several issues of philosophical interest; with his latest publication On Friendship (New York: Basic Books, 2016) as a starting point we soon moved over to a multitude of topics Nehamas has so far dealt with. The whole conversation spirals around the probably most challenging and demanding issue as far as practical philosophy is concerned – yet one every moral agent needs to provide an adequate answer to during his lifetime: Values. Do they exclusively belong to the domain of morality? Nehamas claims that “although moral values […] are important […], they are not the only values that determine whether a life is or is not worthwhile”. This view inevitably shifts the focus from individual values - even fundamental ones such as friendship, art and truth- to the real issue: What is a good life, after all?

Abstract:
El título del presente número de la Revista Boletín Redipe reivindica la relación inescindible entre Filosofía y vida. Particularmente los tres primeros artículos, incluido el editorial, aportan al esclarecimiento del nexo entre filosofía y estilos de vida para nuestro presente. Se destaca el esfuerzo de tres miradas en torno al asunto, asumidas por tres estudiosos de la filosofía interesados por la temática. ¿Qué papel juega hoy la filosofía para tiempos tan complejos como los que afrontamos y cómo incide en los estilos de vida? Los escritos recogen reflexiones que giran alrededor de esta pregunta. El primero, Las artes de la existencia en los modos de ser. Una lectura a cuatro textos de Agamben, recoge un llamado que aborda el significado de la filosofía y su impacto en los modos de ser contemporáneo. El segundo, De Sócrates a Foucault: una larga tradición de la filosofía como forma de vida y arte de vivir a la luz de Pierre Hadot y Alexander Nehamas, traza un arco histórico desde Sócrates a Foucault, pasando por Epicteto, según el cual el hilo conductor de la Filosofía es una forma integral de vida y/o arte de vivir y no una simple actividad especulativa académica. El tercero, Gómez Dávila y la filosofía como forma de vida, prepondera la importancia de la filosofía en su sentido práctico, íntimo y singular como compromiso de vida para nuestro momento.Invitamos al lector a abordar estas lecturas filosóficas, tan necesarias para nuestro presente.

Abstract:
Abstract This piece responds to Alexander Nehamas’s claim in ‘The Good of Friendship’ (2010) that painting has difficulty representing friendship, an issue exemplified for Nehamas by Jacopo Pontormo’s double portrait Two Friends (c.1522). I argue that friendship has not been as elusive for the painter as Nehamas suggests, using as a counter-example Quentin Massys’s diptych of Erasmus and Pieter Gillis (1517). My exposition of Massys’s picture, moreover, reveals dimensions of modern friendship, particularly its concerns for communications media and publicity, neglected by Nehamas’s account.

Abstract:
En este capítulo se pretende trazar un arco histórico desde Sócrates a Foucault, pasando por Epicteto, según el cual el hilo conductor de la Filosofía es una forma integral de vida y/o arte de vivir y no una simple actividad especulativa académica. El abordaje se realiza a la luz de los autores Pierre Hadot y Alexander Nehamas. Finalmente, se resalta el influjo de Epicteto y su Arte de vivir en el último Foucault, que constituyó todo un hallazgo filosófico praxeológico: una ‘estética de la existencia’ plenificada en la Parresía o veridicción neocínica. Transcribimos como aporte vivencial un acápite epictetiano reasumido por Foucault en sus últimos días.

Abstract:
Claus Emmeche: “Do You Tell Me? Knowledge about Friendship in Literature and Scholarship” Friendship as an interpersonal relation is discussed through the perspective of history of knowledge as a historically contingent relation that can be modelled in fiction, literature, and different academic disciplines, like for instance philosophy, anthropology, and history. The opposing claims of philosopher Alexander Nehamas and literary critic Gregory Jusdanis on the adequacy of the novel to describe friendship is discussed, partly drawing on literary friendship studies by Janet Todd and Victor Luftig. Starting from the Neapolitan Novels by Elena Ferrante (depicting a difficult, close, life-long friendship between two women and the precarious knowledge emerging from this relationship) and recent scholarship on Ferrante’s work, the article shows how these novels are not just inspired by but also comment critically upon the work on narrative friendship by philosopher Adriana Cavarero.
