Approaching this topic appears as a necessity at a time when the loss of simple meanings is felt more and more acutely, hence the numerous confusions and sterile discussions about the archaic, mythical, wild, prelogical, unhistorical, etc. These discussions automatically place archaic thinking 1 in an outdated spiritual phase of the human gender, w...

The realm of discursivity is in truth heteroclite, submitted to metamor-phoses that testify the various correspondences between the axis of being (the on) and that of the existent (gegonos) is testified. Discursivity “pre-sentifies” in a manifested manner a referent that at the same time is not able to determine its existence without associating it...

The antivax movement is now a constant phenomenon with increasing social implications. This study explores how the antivax movement is articulated in Romania on the basis of qualitative analysis applied to interviews. Our pilot study focuses on the opinions of 100 persons who oppose vaccination interviewed between 2017 and 2020. We conducted both f...

The book is highlighting the development of philosophy as a dialectic movement achieved by virtue of the isomorphism between discourse, reality and knowledge. The analysis of philosophy as an observable field presupposes the identification of the levels of operation (discoursive, referential, paradigmatic), the identification of certain meta-discou...

The philosophical discourse sets into motion, in a manifested or concealed way, the intention to organize not facts, but significances that engage an experience. In essence it is about a one-time containment of a relative decision on reality, resulting from putting in perspective of a fact, inside a provisionary or finite totality, illusional or au...

Discourse, thinking and reality intimately interact in the realm of conscience, their interrelation defining itself as meaning. Factual and symbol, event and structure, object and discourse are not phases or sequences, but compose an inextricable unity. Discourse integrates time and space in a play of intelligibility, while revealing the depths of...

The relation of human beings with reality and the issue of knowledge is based on two realms of the lived culture: the realm of experimented significances and the one of mediated ones. The first promotes a subjective reality, that organizes and confirms our self-consciousness, our direct contact with the elements of reality, determining a correspond...

The paradigm of late modernity and postmodernity, characterized by the sheer living manifestation of the limit, assumes the conscience of the indissoluble, by annulling any hypothesis, interrogation or problematization. The fracturing of the self coincides with the fracturing of knowledge, as an effective dialectic movement, or, in other words, as...

The communicational sphere emerges as a heterogeneous, polyphonical, interference-breeding and event-harboring frame, not lastly pseudo-gnoseological, in which the symbolic forms, as instruments of communication and knowledge, are structuring an interpretive and constructive process, while delineating standards for the status-quo of knowledge. The...

In order to determine the state of philosophical practices, we must take into consideration their objectivable dimensions, by retracing the operations that ensure their construction within the order of discourse. Grounding such discursive understanding of philosophical practices means first of all to explain the apories to which it submits. We can...
