Ana Cravo Pequena História do Azul: O Azul Como Imagem e Limite do Visível. Manlio Brusatin e a Perspectiva Pictórica
abstract | view |  rights & permissions | cited by
Among the conscience of the intrinsic value of the pictorial, it resides a continuum understanding of which is fundamental in the relationships and contradictions of succedaneum poetic acts, and they will be better understood as the better we think as M. Brusatin, in Order to «dedicate ourselves to the painting return». Reminding all that which was symptomatic and repeatedly hidden and deprecated by the draw - «the colour as decorative complement of the narrative allegory of art history», in our interpretation about Storia dei Colori, we follow the painting in its nature-temporal-space, seeing the “colour-image”, the “colour-shadow”, the “flux to light in white-opacity”. We count the intrinsic vitality of bluish life in people’s cultures; listening to it in its deepness, also in the singular profession’s act, as «once upon a time there was a time again, naturally, the once upon the time of being the Painter» as, for instance, Rafael, Kandinsky, Yves Klein, Mark Rothko and Gerhard Richter.

Elisabete M. de Sousa Richard Wagner: Leitmotiv e Música Dramática
abstract | view |  rights & permissions | cited by
The present essay presents the content of the landmarks that punctuate the long dialogue between verbal language and musical language during the 19th Century, by means of examples taken from the critical and theoretical writings of Hector Berlioz, Robert Schumann and Richard Wagner. In the search for the dramatic essence of music, such dialogue took different forms: the possibility of verbal language being translated by musical language, the pre-existence of a musical-poetic idea in any musical composition, eventually contributing to the appearance of program music, and finally, the principles presiding over Wagner’s Gesamtkunstwerk. Special emphasis is given to Richard Wagner’s Parisian article De l'Ouverture (1841), as well as to the impact on Soren Kierkegaard.

Katia Hay A Diferença como Revelação na Obra de Egon Schiele e Robert Musil
abstract | view |  rights & permissions | cited by
This essay is an attempt to show the different ways in which Deleuze’s philosophy can help us to interpret art. The main ideas or philosophical standpoints I use to analyze the paintings of Egon Schiele and Robert Musil’s novel The Confusions of Young Törless are elaborated in the book he wrote with Felix Guattari, A Thousend Plateaus. In the end, however, the very interpretation of these works of art should shed a new light on the understanding of Deleuze’s thought.

José Miranda Justo Kandinsky e o Espírito. Tempo, Liberdade e Vida na Concepção Kandinskyana da «Vibração Interior»
abstract | view |  rights & permissions | cited by
On the bas is of Kandinsky’s article “On the Question of Form” (as well as passages of Concerning the Spiritual in Art), there arises the possibility of reconstructing the specific features of the artist’s concept of “pure inner vibration” in connection with the concept of the “spiritual”. These features include an important articulation of different modalities of time (hastiness, protracted time and suddenness), and a complex gradation of inner experience that starts with abstraction from external finality and ends with a criticism of subjectivity and a conception of inner universality, which - instead of being reducible to a logical procedure - indicates the exact place of singularity (and art) inside the structure of one’s experience.

Paula Mateus A Questão da Natureza da Arte: As Teorias Históricas de Levinson e Carroll
abstract | view |  rights & permissions | cited by
Levinson’s and Carroll’s historical theories are among the most interesting contemporary answers to the problem of knowing what art is. Although both authors believe that we cannot ignore the relation between art and its own history in order to understand the nature of art, their projects have very different ambitions. Levinson seeks a real definition of art, capable of dealing with every possible case. Carroll, who believes that Levinson’s project faces many difficulties, proposes just a criterion to identify works of art, thus providing a characterization or nominal definition of art. In this paper my aim is to present and discuss, albeit succinctly, these two philosophical theories about the nature of art, and to determine whether they fulfill their own ends.

Maria Teresa Teixeira A Música e o Devir
abstract | view |  rights & permissions | cited by
Process philosophies focus on becoming and often have recourse to the musical metaphor. Becoming is whole and indivisible. Bergson’s notion of durée coincides with the Whiteheadian notion of process. Becoming is duration. Every being is temporal; its very essence is temporality. The unveiling of each being is durational and has its own particular temporality; every creature’s individualization is in accordance with its own particular way of enduring. A melody is also whole and indivisible; its very meaning relates to its whole, undivided temporality. A note of music is nothing at an instant; the wholeness of its being thoroughly defines it.

Denis Coitinho Silveira Uma Justificação Coerentista dos Direitos Humanos em Rawls
abstract | view |  rights & permissions | cited by
The aim of this paper is to identify how the ethical-political foundation of human rights in John Rawls’s theory of justice makes use of a coherentist model of moral justification in which cognitivism, liberalism, pluralism, non-foundationalism, and mitigated intuititionism stand out, leading to a pragmatic model of foundation with public justification in The Law of Peoples (LP). The main idea is to think about the reasonableness of the universal defence of human rights as primary goods with the aspects foliows: its political nature, not metaphysical; its theoretical coherentist model, non-foundationalist; its pragmatic function and its public justification.

Luís Estevinha A Definição Tradicional do Conhecimento: Fundações, Virtudes e Problemas
abstract | view |  rights & permissions | cited by
The search for a correct definition of propositional knowledge took place in the second half of the last Century. In this paper, I wish to submit an introduction to the topic. I start by offering basic notions of belief, truth and epistemic justification. Then I use those basic notions to shed some light over the nature of the so called Traditional Definition of Knowledge (TDC). I do that by focusing on those which, by my own lights, seem to be the most salient historical events and philosophical views canvassing the issue of the TDC on that period of time; crucially, I pay close attention to the arguments submitted by Edmund Gettier against the sufficiency of the TDC, keeping in mind that nowadays almost everybody concurs that those arguments falsify it. The article also offers a brief taxonomy of the possible answers to the so-called Gettier Problem and describes the most recent developments on this debate.
