Ignorant Cognition. A Philosophical Investigation of the Cognitive Features of Not-Knowing
No full textThis book offers a comprehensive philosophical investigation of ignorance. Using a set of cognitive tools and models, it discusses features that can describe a state of ignorance if linked to a particular type of cognition affecting the agent’s social behavior, belief system, and inferential capacity. The author defines ignorance as a cognitive condition that can be either passively (and unconsciously) borne by an agent or actively nurtured by him or her, and a condition that entails epistemic limitations (which can be any lack of knowledge, belief, information or data) that affect the agent’s behavior, belief system, and inferential capacity.
The author subsequently describes the ephemeral nature of ignorance, its tenacity in the development of human inferential and cognitive performance, and the possibility of sharing ignorance among human agents within the social dimension. By combining previous frameworks such as the naturalization of logic, the eco-cognitive perspective in philosophy and concepts from Peircean epistemology, and adding original ideas derived from the author’s own research and reflections, the book develops a new cognitive framework to help understand the nature of ignorance and its influence on the human condition
Greek Goddness of the Moon in Light of the Orphic Hymn to Selene
No full textHymn to Selene is one of 87 so-called Orphic hymns. Its addressee is goddess of the Moon, who is defined in the hymn both by the name Selene and Mene. Conducting the literary analysis of the above-mentioned hymn, we can notice that it consists of the invocation addressed to the goddess, many epithets revealing the greatness of the divinity and the prayer ending which in its contents resembles the invocation. It is worth mentioning that the basic part of the hymn includes some kind of litany catalogue of epithets by means of which the Hymn’s Author defines and describes the goddess Selene.
The literary analysis of the respective epithets which are present in the Hymn to Selene, allows to state that the picture of the goddess of the Moon included in it possesses very classic, known to us from mythology, features and also clearly seen orphic features. Undoubtedly, dual sexuality that the goddess Selene was attributed with in verse 4 is such a feature. The phrase ϑῆλυς τε καὶ ἄρσην is to be found in this verse. In this context we have the direct reference to the primeval orphic godhead, Fanes, who was a two-gender god. Thus, Selene is perceived as one of hypostasis of one and the only one divine creature which can be defined as “One”.
Basing on the results of the literary analysis, we can notice that the goddess Selene, who was not particularly popular with the ancient Greeks, was somehow re-discovered by Orphics, who saw her beauty through the person of the Hymn’s Author. Due to the fact that Selene was the goddess of the Moon by the light of which the orphic usually practiced their own rituals, certainly occupied much space in the orphic cult

Il divino nel "Peri kosmou". Aristotele e aristotelismo tra fisica e filosofia
No full textThe "Peri kosmou", included in the "Corpus aristotelicum", was subject of a more than thousand-year debate about its authenticity. Over the centuries the interpretations, even if addressed to the analysis of the philosophical contents, were mostly moved by the interest to assign a precise authorship or circumscribe the cultural and philosophical milieu from which the work may have drawn origin. This approach gave more importance to resolution of the question of authenticity. It follows minor attention to some philosophical aspects of the doctrines and of the identity of the author, to which it should pay attention. Starting from the consideration that the author addresses a primary attention to the subject of the divine, and that the scientific interest appears functional to show the philosophical role of theology in the "Peri kosmou", the detailed analysis of the nature of the god and of the relationship between god and cosmos, made in the light of comparison with similar doctrines, allows to better outline the philosophical features of the Aristotelianism of the "Peri kosmou" and to offer relevant elements also in relation to the question of authenticity
