Full textThis study offers a questioning of the legitimacy of a definitive semantic content and a fixed pictorial illustration of Léopold Sédar Senghor’s poems. To do this, it shows that the reading of senghorien poems is a phantasy experience allowing the reading-subject to build internally, by the energy of presentification, a picture-book conforms to the unstable meaning of Senghor’s poetry. And, the location of the picture-book at the crossroads between the perceived and the fantasized is not without implications for the understanding of Senghor's poetry as well as its illustration. Because in pointing the impossibility of an effective and definitive understanding of the meaning of senghorien poems, it asks bluntly raises the question of the reliability and admissibility of these pictorial illustrations

Full textThis study intends to highlight and explain the development, in the Renaissance, of a category of fictions characterized by their comical improbability and their - more or less serious - claim to convey a philosophical content. Based on a corpus of six Italian and French “philosophical fantasies” (Alberti’s Momus, Ariosto’s Orlando Furioso, Folengo’s Baldo, Rabelais’s works, Ronsard’s “seasonal hymns”, and Philippe d’Alcripe’s Nouvelle Fabrique), our study aims at defining this category, and showing how a fictional pattern, initially borrowed by Italian humanists from Lucian of Samosata, has been adapted to new philosophical stakes and controversies. Our last six chapters are devoted to case studies. The five previous ones explore, from a theoretical perspective, the status of incredible fictions in the horatian, platonic and aristotelian poetics: far from being systematically regarded as lies, or considered as artistic failures, they benefit from the high value granted to fictional invention and to the intellectual impact of astonishment. However, their relationship to the allegorical tradition is complex: while they constantly refer to it, they resist to the allegorizers’s investigation. This ambiguity is specific to the products of creative fantasy which, in Renaissance philosophy, is a strongly ambivalent faculty of the soul

Full textDepth psychology, as a tradition originating from Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung, today differentiates itself from other practices of counseling psychology by claiming a special focus upon the soul and its experience of imagination. But the study of philosophy shows how the tenets of depth psychology are problematic—the anima mundi is a misunderstanding that brings about significant consequences for the practice of psychotherapy. This thesis undertakes a hermeneutic methodology by examining particular writings from philosophers Gotthold E. Lessing and Soren Kierkegaard. These works indicate the problematic character of thought that is not in accord with the beautiful, whereby a question is raised regarding how a psychotherapy that is informed by philosophy might make human life more beautiful. At the basis of these themes is the account of noetic heterogeneity and phantasia (“appearing”) in Aristotle’s De Anima, which is examined in relation to Michael Elliott’s new psychotherapy of Philosophic Psychology.

Full textEsta dissertação investiga a noção de phantasía ao longo do livro III do De anima, que consiste em uma explicitação da natureza exata do papel adquirido pela phantasía, utilizando-se das interpretações de Aristóteles que propõe explicar sua diferença em relação às demais capacidades de conhecimento e como essa noção intervém no movimento dos animais e na ação humana. A análise dos princípios que parecem ser responsáveis pelo movimento, como desejo e/ou intelecto, ressalta certas soluções adotadas no tratado que levam a algumas dificuldades e problemas relacionados com a phantasía deliberativa, uma vez que se pode reconhecer que o princípio único do movimento local é a capacidade desiderativa e que esta, por sua vez, não opera sem a phantasía. As distinções oriundas dos momentos anteriores se organizam num objetivo central que norteia toda a pesquisa, a saber: a explicitação da exata atividade da phantasía deliberativa na motivação humana e a discussão sobre seu possível caráter deliberativo. Além disso, discute-se o papel da phantasía no livro III do De Anima: seria ela substitutiva ou apenas representativa do intelecto prático?

Full textThe particular form of the begining of phantasia proceeds from the state of the personage's body starieled in an indefinite language. Writing is installed to control images of the language, to control oneself, and to interpret all meanings of the world. Reading the relations between the march of the personage and the work of writing, we have tried to understand how the body participates in the historic space. In paris, the personage moves between marks of destruction, confrontations with languages of closure and analysis of saturation as a symptom of apocalypse. How to escape from danger ? How to have space where the person can move in peace with himself and with the world ? Imagination phantasia is the motor to go, free, anyway, and to control the world. The march is now between arts, philosophy, religion and especially sufism : ibn arabi is the guide in the aesthetic lecture. That is the way of liberty, of sovereignty of the person, out of ideology, particularism, disaster, in the large space of creativ imagination

Full textIn chapter 3 of book VII of the Nicomachean Ethics, Aristotle explains acrasia atributing to the acratic a cognitive failure which consists in the non-actualization of the particular premise of the practical syllogism. The particular premise of the practical syllogism is linked to sense perception. But what does Aristotle have in mind when he makes reference to sense perception? He must have in mind another capacity beyond the five senses, he must have in mind also phantasia. This is clear from the method used to deal with the faculties of the soul. According to the method in question, the faculties of the soul must be investigated according to their proper activity and, before that, according to their correlate object. This method seems appropriate to individualize the five senses. Colors serve to individualize sight, sounds, hearing, odors, smell, etc... This method, however, has its limitations, it is not only when I am stimulated by external objects that I make use of the senses, it is possible to think of colors with closed eyes, for example. The object, therefore, is not enough to define each sense, it is necessary to make reference to the experience that we have when using the senses. This mental experience that is involved in the use of the senses corresponds to the activity of phantasia. My position gets even clearer from the discussion between literalists and spiritualists. These two interpretative tendencies understand Aristotle's assertion that to perceive is to receive the sensible form without matter in distinct ways. According to spiritualism, to receive the sensible form without matter means to change formally without suffering material change, that is, to perceive the white color, for example, without being whitened. Whereas, for the literalist, receiving the sensible form without matter means receiving the sensible form by transmission. Thus we have a physiology of perception. The principle of transmission, however, can not exhaust the explanation of perception, it is necessary to presuppose an irreducible formal principle which is the sensitive consciousness. Sensitive consciousness, in turn, is phantasia. One evidence that phantasia is Aristotle's consciousness is that it is involved in all the capacities of the soul that involve consciousness: sensitive capacities, the capacity to desire and to understand. It is impossible to treat perception without reference to phantasia. All that has been said is advantageous for the analysis of acrasia, since Aristotle attributes two characteristics to phantasia. Phantasia depends on our will and can be influenced by our desires and emotions. Thus, it is possible to find a kind of moral conflict in the case of cognitive failure of EN 7.3.

Full textThe purpose of this dissertation is a study of the concept of phantasia in the work of Michael Psellos. More specifically, it deals with its Neoplatonic origins and of the ways in which it had been modified and enriched by Christian thought, of which Psellos was also an heir. Admittedly, the concept of phantasia was part of a wider debate, namely the one concerning the theories of the soul, which were flourishing again in Byzantium during the 11th century. Psellos, however, developed the perspective of an anthropology of the middleness conceived of as both Neoplatonic and Christian. Concerning phantasia, which is considered to be the soul’s most fundamental and flexible means of mediation, its mediating power par excellence, Psellos makes use of numerous and particularly varied elements drawn from Neoplatonic sources. His theory about the phantasia embraces many fields, ranging from psycho-physiology, epistemology, ethics and rhetorics to communication with the divine. Psellos reflects upon the figurative and visual modalities of phantasia, its functions and development as well as its areas of applicability in the life of the incarnated soul (dreams, mathematics, myths, symbolic discourse, sensitivity), without omitting its deviations. Standing between two philosophical and religious traditions, namely pagan Neoplatonism and Christianity, Psellos revalorizes the concept of phantasia by underlining its multivalence in the context of a nascent humanism. In this sense the resurgence of Neoplatonic psychology in Psellos’ work does not only constitute an episode in the evolution of Byzantine thought, but it also represents an important moment in the history of Neoplatonism

Full textThe present study has the purpose of analyzing, in Freud´s work, how fantasy is placed in an intersection between what the human being possess of most essential and universal, and in which it is shown in a particular way. To show this thesis we researched firstly to expose the conception of fantasy and its relation with concepts such as interpretation (Deutung), sense (Sinn) and play (Spiel). Then we show that fantasy is not only a separate universe, which existence relays on the exam of reality, but the condition of the possibility of truth and the effectiveness in the world. In the sequence, we traced an analogy between the fantastic creation of children, sick people and poets, and then demonstrate how those highlight the symbolic relation established between what there is in common and peculiar in people. In our last chapter, we analyzed the importance of fantasy in the building of scientific knowledge and how it is revealed as an art (Kunst).

Full textThe purpose of this paper is to study the ecfrase, known as description in Latin Rhetoric, which is normally confused with the evidence. The ecfrase contributes to cause a visualizations effect of the verbal speech. Therefore, the study of ancient theories approaches the verbal language to the visual, and works as basis for its comprehension. There is profusion of names to the ecfrastic process, creating confusion when we try to establish the limits and differences of each procedure. The imaginative process, theorized by Aristotle as phantasia, is a fundamental part to understand how the evidence (or enargia) works. Beyond the theory, we analyze the application of the concepts from some examples of epic and historiographic genres, also translating these texts.

Full textThe aim of the author is to study the Poetics of enargeia (the quality of "evidence") in latin epics from republican to flavian age : Livius Andronicus’s Odyssey, Naevius’s Punic War, Ennius’s Annals, Virgil’s Aeneid, Lucan’s Pharsalia, Silius Italicus’s Punic War. After defining the antique senses of image, its rhetorical stakes and its generic rules in epic, we complete this theoretical approach, studying the founding authors, which brings to the fore some traits inherent in homeric Poetics : its mimetic, rational, "realistic" aspect. But, according to the evidence given by imperial rhetors, it is a recognized fact that this traditional conception of mimèsis transforms itself in the 1st century A. D. : Longinus and Quintilian suggest that image becomes more and more subjective, frees itself from "realistic" convention and gains a greater inventive freedom. Therefore, comparing the works of our corpus with these facts, we try to define each author’s respective contributions at the renewal of the epic enargeia. In fact, it turns out that, since it is more creative, the epic Roman enargeia still transgresses and makes light of the generic epic laws and tends to open itself up from the "real" to offer subjective and inventive visions. In this respect, Virgil seems particularly like a precursor

Full textAngiosperm leaves have undergone major functional and structural modifications over time, and currently exist in a wide diversity of forms, sizes, and arrangements. For example, in the tribe Bignonieae (Bignoniaceae), leaves are generally 2-3-foliolated, and the terminal leaflet is often modified into tendrils.These tendrils present varied morphologies (simple, bifid, trifid or multifid) and are thought to have been involved in the diversification of Bignonieae. Despite the importance of tendrils for climbing plants, little is still known about the biology of tendrils in the angiosperms. To date, no data is available on the genes that control tendrilled-leaf development in species other than pea (Pisum sativum). Even though KNOX1 genes control leaf development in the majority of compound-leaved angiosperms, in pea, KNOX1 is completely excluded from the leaf primordium and its development is regulated by LEAFY/FLORICAULA (LFY/FLO). This observation suggests that the development of other tendrilled-leaves might also be exclusively regulated by LFY/FLO as well. This study investigated the evolution and development of tendril types in Bignonieae in order to further understand how changes in leaf morphogenesis led to current patterns of variation in tendril morphology. We further analyzed the expression patterns of SHOOTMERISTEMLESS (STM, KNOX1 gene), PHANTASTICA (PHAN) and LFY/FLO during leaf development in three representatives of Bignonieae with different tendril types in order to better understand the structure, origin and genetic basis of leaf tendrils in this plant clade. Our results demonstrate that leaves in Bignonieae develop acropetally, as well as indicates that trifid tendrils are ancestral in the tribe, with the evolution of other tendril types involving heterochonic shifts in the leaf basic developmental pathway. Furthermore, transcripts of STM were detected in developing leaves, revealing that tendrilled leaves of Bignonieae develop differently from those of pea. The anatomical analysis revealed that tendrils are bilaterally symmetrical and present some characteristics that are similar to leaflets, further corroborating earlier suggestions that tendrils indeed represent modified leaflets. This observation was further reinforced by the expression pattern of PHAN (an adaxial identity gene), as PHAN transcripts were confined to the adaxial domain of the tendril primordia in branched-tendrilled species, in a pattern very similar to that observed in leaflet primordia. In B. callistegioides, a simple-tendrilled species, PHAN was expressed throughout the entire tendril, indicating a certain degree of disruption in the establishment of the adaxial domain. The differences encountered in the expression pattern of PHAN amongst species with different tendril types indicate a possible correlation of the expression of PHAN with tendril branching. Furthermore, it suggests an important role for PHAN in the establishment of tendril polarity and in the rise of the various tendril types encountered in Bignonieae. In addition, the pattern of expression of LFY/FLO in developing leaves has led us to infer that LFY/FLO may present an important role for the separation of new organs from meristematic zones.
