    Choices in Food and Happiness Seen From the Perspective of Aristotle's Notion of Habit.Ileana F. Szymanski - 2009 - Philosophy in the Contemporary World 16 (2):12-21.
    In our daily life we develop habits that, being constantly practiced, become part of who we are. Two areas in which we develop habits are the evaluation of sources of food, and the evaluation of sources of happiness. It is my contention that the habits developed in those areas could affect one another. Thus, acquiring good habits in one area is of utmost importance to develop the other one. Conversely, if we develop the bad habit of picky eating this will (...)

    Iphigenia vs. Abraham: Problematizing the Knight of Faith in Kierkegaard's "Fear and Trembling".Ileana Szymanski - 2014 - Philosophy Today 58 (3):393-409.
    The story of the binding of Isaac, also known as the akedah, has been the subject of many important philosophical commentaries and discussions. One of these is Kierkegaard’s Fear and Trembling, first published in 1843. Comparing Kierkegaard’s characterization of Abraham as the paradigm of the knight of faith with the character of Iphigenia from Euripides’s Iphigenia at Aulis, it becomes apparent that Iphigenia exhibits characteristics that make her fit the same paradigm. In order to account for the behavior of both (...)

    The Metaphysics and Ethics of Food as Activity.Ileana F. Szymanski - 2014 - Radical Philosophy Review 17 (2):351-370.
    The many ways in which we interact with food, e.g., eating, cooking, purchasing, farming, legislating, etc., are intersected by ethics and politics. The terms of our interactions with food are dictated in a significant way by how we understand its metaphysical underpinnings; that is to say, by how we define “food.” When food is understood as nothing more than it becomes easier to dismiss our political and ethical obligations since, after all, food is only a thing. This obscures the others (...)
