  Figurations and Interlocutions: The Feminine Question in Walter Benjamin’s Oeuvre

  Artefilosofia Journal

  Even though he was a philosopher, not a poet, Walter Benjamin (1892-1940) thought poetically, says Hannah Arendt about his friend and life-long correspondent. In his oeuvre, the feminine appears through recurrent images whose meaning may vary according to the context, in different figurations and fictions. In agreement with these fictional figurations, one of his first essays presents the question of what a feminine culture or a feminine language would be (Metaphysik der Jugend, GS, II, I, 1977).

  13th International Congress of Aesthetics – Brazil

  13th International Congress of Aesthetics – Brazil

  The 13^th International Congress of Aesthetics – Brazil, entitled “Os fins da arte”, aims to highlight recurring themes in the history of philosophical aesthetics, elaborating the already constant ambiguity in its title, namely: “fins”. The term refers to the millenarian discussion about the uses of art in the past, present, and future. This takes on the important question about the autonomy of art and the regime of its heteronomy that not only asserted itself in its beginnings, but still imposes itself in the form of market demands tending to disfigure the original impetus of important aesthetic manifestations.

  Rewriting: logic of repetition?

  III International Conference in Narratives

  The third International Conference in Narratives, organized by Universidad EAFIT (Medellín, Colombia) and Università degli Studi di Padova, proposes rewriting as an object of reflection from the arts, humanities, social sciences and communication sciences. To interrogate the gesture of writing a text again, it involves accounting for an operation that, in its apparent simplicity, shows the experience of time and repetition, the recording of memory, the tension between imitation and difference, and the means of reproduction and creation. Along its relationships, objects and notions that it implies, the gesture of rewriting is exemplary and heuristic; it has become a model for understanding various phenomena and cultural practices.

  Conflicts, Limits, Recognition

  5th International Conference for Philosophy and Psychoanalysis of the International Society for Psychoanalysis and Philosophy (ISPP)

  La théorie de la reconnaissance occupe une place privilégiée dans le débat intellectuel contemporain. Dans le contexte de la philosophie politique et sociale, des auteurs comme Jürgen Habermas, Charles Taylor, Nancy Fraser, Axel Honneth, entre autres, ont montré leur importance et leur valeur éthico-politique. Le lien entre la reconnaissance, l'autonomie, l’identité subjective et les transformations politico-économiques, est au cœur du débat entre ces auteurs. Dans le domaine de la psychanalyse, la notion de reconnaissance a également eu une forte présence.
