The contents of life as “antidote” to death

by Ana Bazac This short paper highlights the importance of the contents of life as “antidote” to death. Certainly, they are relative, since death is a natural phenomenon, but if the consciousness of death means sorrow just because its stake is life/the highest value is life, it results that in order to “oppose” death one […]

Moral Anticipation

by Ana Bazac Anticipation is an essential function of the mind/ the consciousness, because it precedes and prepares the reaction of the organism to the stimuli of the environment. By preceding it, anticipation is a rapid review of the possibilities and conditions and, as a result, it is the frame of the best choice/the best model […]

Vrem într-adevăr să trăim la țară?

Eseu cvasi-optimist de Ana Bazac   Avertisment Întrebarea de mai sus pare o glumă, fireşte. Căci, pe de o parte, stăm unde vrem – fiind liberi ca cetăţeni, putem să locuim undeva din propria noastră hotărâre – şi, pe de altă parte, stăm unde putem, adică unde ne permit mijloacele materiale şi împrejurările care ne-au condiţionat […]

Un avertisment antic din partea filosofiei

de Ana Bazac The purpose of this short note is to highlight the importance of the systemic perspective on humans and to link this perspective to the quality of life. Philosophy shows precisely that the lack of such an approach leads to deep deficiencies in the quality of human life. Plato argued that to increase this […]

Poziţia dreaptă a corpului

[Schiţă filosofică]  de Ana Bazac Abstract. The paper starts from the significance of the beauty of the body within the concept of man and shows why has the Greek philosophy explained the human as a rational being, the beauty of the body having a subordinated place, however not despised but intertwining with the mind: only together, the […]

Kant and Enlightenment

by Ana Bazac The 18th century was not only that of Enlightenment. There were even ideas which opposed[1] to the message of progress through cultural development of the many – although “the many” were, at least for the German intellectuals, only townsmen, and rather propertied. But just because of the coexistence of adverse ideologies, we […]

A avea proprietatea cuvintelor şi democraţia

by Ana Bazac A avea proprietatea cuvintelor este și un semn de inteligență. Inteligența este capacitatea de a face legături, și este esențial să avem elementele (informații) între care să facem legături, dar este la fel de important modul de a exprima legăturile. Desigur, este adevărat că modul de utilizare a cuvintelor este judecat în funcţie […]

Science of ‘how’ and science of ‘what for’

by Ana Bazac It is more probable that the purpose of knowing how was anterior to knowing what. But would this conjecture be plausible when we all are used to consider that to know means to understand what is in front of us, therefore, the what of things? Well, first we should ask what knowing […]

What does to be radical mean?

[Alexander the Great and the Gordian knot model] by Ana Bazac Etymologically, to be radical means to go to the “root of the matter”, that “for man, … is man himself”[i]. But this simple explanation is inherently abstract, if it is not developed in its multi facets concreteness. *** One aspect of the radicalness of thinking […]
