Research themes
As the plural suggests, this group is involved in a variety of research projects that arise from Discipline filosofiche, the Department journal founded in 1991.
The projects concern four universes of discourse in which philosophical rationality currently unfolds: Hermeneutika, Praktika, Analytika, and Phainomenologika. These are four universes in which philosophical discourse deals with the perspicuity and clarification of meaning – be it the meaning attributed to a written text or the intended meaning of action; the meaning in which reality is represented by language or meaning qua experienced and constituted in a subject’s consciousness and in its expressive modes.
The goal of the research group is to deepen and spread theoretical discussion of the main themes of contemporary philosophical inquiry, from phenomenology to practical philosophy, from aesthetics to linguistic theory, from epistemology to the new perspectives on ontology.
