Kierkegaard on Imitation and Ethics: Towards a Secular Project?Wojciech T. Kaftanski - 2020 - Journal of Religious Ethics 48 (4):557-577.details This essay demonstrates the prominence of imitation in Kierkegaard’s ethics. I move beyond his idea of authentic existence modeled on Christ and explore the secular dimension of Kierkegaard’s insights about human nature and imitation. I start with presenting imitation as key to understanding the ethical dimension of the relationship between the universal and individual aspects of the human self in Kierkegaard. I then show that Kierkegaard’s moral concepts of “primitivity” and “comparison” are a response to his sociological and psychological observations (...) 19th Century Ethics in 19th Century Philosophy Autonomy and Moral Psychology in Social and Political Philosophy Epistemic Norms in Epistemology Epistemic Value in Epistemology Ethics of Belief in Epistemology Plato: Imitation in Ancient Greek and Roman Philosophy Religious Ethics in Normative Ethics Religious Topics in Philosophy of Religion Sociology of Knowledge in Epistemology Søren Kierkegaard in 19th Century Philosophy Direct download (2 more) Export citation Bookmark 1 citation
La proyección de Solón y de su poesía en la figura platónica del poeta legislador de "Leyes".Lucas Soares - 2018 - Revista de Filosofía 43 (2):165-181.details En este trabajo me interesa abordar la figura del poeta legislador Solón, a fin de examinar la influencia que sus escritos pudieron haber ejercido sobre la concepción de la poesía forjada por Platón en _Leyes_. No se trata tanto de la poesía de Solón en sí misma como de lo que Platón supo leer en ella en términos de posibilidad para la conformación de un nuevo linaje poético. Partiendo de un breve examen de la figura de Solón y de algunos (...) No categories Direct download (3 more) Export citation Bookmark
The Socratic Dimension of Kierkegaard's Imitation.Wojciech T. Kaftański - 2016 - Heythrop Journal 57 (4):599-611.details This article reevaluates the origins of Kierkegaard’s concept of imitation. It challenges the general approach to the genealogy of the phenomenon in question, which privileges the influence of various religious traditions on the thinker and ignores his exposure to the non-Christian literature. I contend that a close reading of the Apology, the Sophist, the Republic, and the Phaedo alongside Kierkegaard’s texts from the so-called second authorship reveals in the dialogues of Plato the three crucial aspects of Kierkegaard’s concept of imitation, (...) 19th Century Philosophy 20th Century Philosophy Philosophy of Religion Plato: Ethics in Ancient Greek and Roman Philosophy Socrates in Ancient Greek and Roman Philosophy Direct download Export citation Bookmark 4 citations
Poetic Imitation:_ The Argument of _Republic 10.Sarale Ben-Asher - 2024 - Apeiron 57 (1):55-81.details The paper offers a new reading of the argument against poetry in Plato’s Republic 10. I argue that Socrates’ corruption charges rely on the tripartite theory of the soul, and that metaphysical doctrines play a role only in the first charge, which demonstrates that the poets are not qualified to teach by reducing tragic poetry to mimetic skill. This accusation clears the way for two corruption charges: the strengthening of appetite, and the softening of spirit (i.e., ‘the greatest charge’). The (...)

De la alienación imitativa a la potencia mimética: Platón y Adorno, Aristóteles y Benjamin.Castor M. M. Bartolomé Ruiz - 2018 - Universitas Philosophica 35 (71):145-173.details This essay defends that mimesis is an inherently agonistic and paradoxical human practice. The divergent views on mimesis by Plato and Aristotle, as well as by Adorno and Benjamin, are the philosophical manifestation of an agonistic tension of human mimesis that is not resolved in the exclusive truth of one of the positions, but remains as a permanent possibility to create alternative paths in history.

Platón y el conflicto entre la vieja y la nueva poseía.Javier Aguirre - 2013 - Convivium: revista de filosofía 26:5-28.details Las numerosas acusaciones formuladas por Platón contra la poesía aparecen a lo largo de toda su obra, referidas tanto al contenido como a la forma, y se basan en diversos supuestos éticos, políticos y metafísicos. Sin embargo, tales ataques no son lanzados con-tra la poesía como tal, sino contra la poesía tradicional y su importante presencia en el ámbito educativo griego. Frente a la tradición poética y frente a las distintas corrientes intelectuales que se disputan el espacio educativo de su (...) No categories Direct download Export citation Bookmark 1 citation
