Abstract:

This thesis focuses on the relationship between Thomas Hobbes and his one-time patron, Francis Bacon. It addresses the natural and civil histories and philosophies of the two thinkers. The study does not contain any extended treatment of Bacon and Hobbes' conception of rhetoric or theology, or their literary style. V The thesis comprises five chapters. Chapter 1 sets out the extant evidence for the personal relationship between the two thinkers. It also shows that Hobbes' knowledge of Bacon's works was extensive and that his interest in _ his texts was ongoing. Chapter 2 deals with Bacon and H

Abstract:

This dissertation deals with the transcendental philosophy of Immanuel Kant. I provide the background of transcendental philosophy before Kant, beginning from Aristotle. Kant transformed Aristotelian transcendental philosophy by using the method of the sciences in the Modern period. This method was initiated by Francis Bacon, in his method of induction. Isaac Newton transformed the method so that it could deal with verification and falsification. This Newtonian method was taken up into chemistry, serving as a guide for the analysis and synthesis of elements. Kant used this method in his transc

Abstract:

The overall objective of this research is to analyze the reception of the philosophy of Bacon in certain theoreticians of environmental sciences. The specific objectives are: to explore the Baconian concept of nature, the concept of progress and the absorption of these concepts in environmental sciences. The work is structured in three chapters. The first deals with the concept of nature. The second is about the idea of progress and the last one presents an analysis on certain appropriations of the Baconian philosophy in Hans Jonas, Andrew Brennan and Mauro Grün.

Abstract:

This thesis explores the disciplinary relationship between natural philosophy (the study of nature or body) and theology (the study of the divine) in seventeenth-century England. Early modern disciplines had two essential functions. First, they set the rules and boundaries of argument – knowledge was therefore legitimised and made intelligible within disciplinary contexts. And second, disciplines structured pedagogy, parcelling knowledge so it could be studied and taught. This dual role meant disciplines were epistemic and social structures. They were composed of various elements, and conseque

Abstract:

This thesis is an interdisciplinary study of the aesthetics of movement in Gilles Deleuze’s writings and in Merce Cunningham’s choreographies. But it is also a study of the movement that arises when the two meet in a series of variations, where also their respective working partners Félix Guattari and John Cage enter. It is a textual happening where the random juxtaposition between seemingly unrelated areas, philosophy and dance, gives rise to arbitrary connections. It is a textual machine, composed of seven parts. First, the methodological architecture of the juxtaposition is introduced and i

Entre l’Humanisme et la Renaissance, la réflexion sur la méthode concerne la structure logique des savoirs, les pouvoirs de la raison et de l’esprit humain.Michel de Montaigne met en jeu l’idée de la raison comme outil d’excellence pour la connaissance et, dans la forme des Essais, il utilise une nouvelle écriture qui est aussi une méthode fondée sur la fragmentation et sur la recherche jamais achevée. La lecture de ces thèmes dans les œuvres de Francis Bacon conduit ma recherche, dans le but d'analyser les diverses conclusions d’une critique répandue à la fin de la Renaissance et au début de

Cet ensemble de travaux étudie l'émergence d'une nouvelle philosophie de la nature chez Bacon entre le Promus (1594-95) et Redargutio philosophiarum (1608) avec pour centre The advencement of learning (1605). Une introduction identifie l'idée de progrès dès les oeuvres manuscrites de 1603-1604. La première partie explique l'impression chaotique de The advancement of learning par l'amicale censure de l'ecclésiqtique L.

Accusé par Albert Burgh de considérer sa propre philosophie comme étant la meilleure entre toutes, Spinoza rectifie : il sait seulement qu'est vraie la philosophie qu'il comprend. Mais on cherchera vainement une authentique définition, chez lui, de l'idée de philosophie, ainsi qu'un programme d'ensemble des connaissances rationnelles, comme s'appliquent à en dresser Bacon, Descartes ou Hobbes. Y a-t-il chez Spinoza une conception précise, voire singulière, de l'idée de philosophie?

L'enquête porte sur le malentendu historial, appréhendé par le forum philosophique, à propos du sens global de la magna instauratio.

Le but de l'enquête est de délimiter ce sens global afin de nous pourvoir d'un guide plus fiable en vue d'une nouvelle édition. La méthode est progressive-régressive.

Abstract:

La philosophie expérimentale, que Diderot construit dans l'Interprétation de la nature, peut être considérée comme un concept central de la philosophie de la connaissance de Diderot. Elle se définit d'abord comme une pratique de la philosophie prise dans une division sociale du travail intellectuel. Elle permet, à partir d'un cadre issu de Bacon, d'approfondir le plan pratique et expérimental du savoir, en soulignant la dignité philosophique des arts et des savoir-faire. C'est dans cette perspective que l'intérêt pour la chimie peut être saisi dans toute sa portée. En tant que savoir pratique

Ce travail examine le problème de l'exploration, tel qu'il se présente dans les chroniques de voyage qui ont forgé la cartographie du monde moderne entre la Renaissance et les Lumières, en privilégiant l'analyse des enjeux épistémologiques entre le nouveau et l'inconnu. A travers une lecture de ce corpus portant sur l'Amérique et des spéculations géographiques et politiques sur le continent austral, il montre, d'une part, que dans ces textes un régime de spatialité trouve son instance inaugurale ; de l'autre, que l'histoire de celui-ci est aussi celle de la philosophie elle-même, pour autant q

Abstract:

Contemporary scholarship has seen increasing interest in the study of elegy. The present work attempts to elevate and expand discussions of death and survival beyond the ambit of elegy to a more genre-inclusive and ethically sensitive survey of Romantic posthumous life writings. Combining an ethic of remembrance founded on mutual fulfilment and reciprocal care with the Romantic tendency to hybridise different genres of mourning and commemoration, the study re- conceives 'posthumous life' as the 'inexhaustible' product of endless collaboration between the dead, the dying and the living.

Cette expérience mise en parallèle avec la forme esthétique, permet d'explorer une passerelle entre création psychique et création artistique, en s'étayant sur l'ancrage corporel et le potentiel protéiforme de la matière première psychique.

Abstract:

The philosophy of Francis Bacon has an important and often overlooked place in the development of American political thought. John Dewey cites Bacon as the forefather of his own highly influential philosophical school, American pragmatism. I argue that, though Dewey is in many ways correct to look to Bacon as his predecessor, he overlooks or collapses certain crucial tensions in Bacon’s philosophical project. This causes Dewey to misinterpret the political implications of the philosophic project to which he himself is an heir. By exploring the tensions that Bacon maintains, and Dewey collapses

Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI)<br>The history of Western civilisation is generally demarcated into three broad epochs: ancient, Christian and modern. These eras are usually defined in political terms, but they may also be differentiated in terms of fundamental differences in the nature of the organisations that constitute civil society in each age, how they defined the public good, and even what they consider philanthropic. In the nineteenth century, for instance, 'Scientific philanthropy' displaced 'Christian charity' as the dominant model for charitable giving; a
