Así como en la expresión "τὸ ὄν λέγεται πολλαχῶς" (Met., IV 2 1003b34) se condensa en buena medida la ontología aristotélica, con el conciso enunciado "τὸ ἓν λέγεται πολλαχῶς" (Met., IV 2, 1004a23) se sintetiza en cierto sentido la entera... more

Haas on implied being and unity in Plato's "Parmenides"
How can we become sensitized to the other? One way—Levinas’ example—is with a kiss, with the ambiguity of a kiss that exposes us to another kind of sensibility, makes us susceptible to the proximity of the other, vulnerable to the trace... more
Being is neither a being nor a concept; rather, it is an essentially ambiguous universal. Being’s ambiguity allows us to understand both why it withdraws from thought and why there is something rather than nothing. The problem for... more
As Haas argues: improvisation is neither (superficially) "doing what we want," nor "being free"--it is self-schematization, and that is the origin of speaking and doing, words and deeds, indeed any action whatsoever. As Aristotle writes:... more
In this book, I examine three major topics: Being, the One and God. On the one hand, they might be considered independently, as they are of interest for the respective fields of philosophy; on the other, each chapter is a part of the... more
The paradigm according to which the cosmos is ordered by the demiurge is characterized in the Timaeus as ‘Animal Itself’, while παράδειγμα in the vision of Er from the Republic denotes the patterns of lives chosen by individual humans and... more
ABSTRACT: Plotinus’ famous treatise against the Gnostics (33), together with contemporary and thematically related treatises on Intelligible Beauty (31), on Number (34), and on Free Will and the Will of the One (39), can be seen as... more
Mysticism, theurgy, non-philosophy: this text will experiment with the three in an attempt to perform a non-philosophical hijacking of so-called theurgy (theurgia). I will experiment with a comparison between Iamblichus' theurgy,... more

Title in English: Aspects of the concept of “aeon” in John of Damascus Η παρούσα μελέτη ασχολείται με το πώς ο Ιωάννης ο Δαμασκηνός εκλαμβάνει την έννοια του αιώνος, με τα επιμέρους θέματα περί του οντολογικού περιεχομένου του και περί... more
“Haas’ book is unique...his own foray into metaphysics...an original metaphysics written in a way that is designed to afford a unique angle on the problems of metaphysics, specifically in their ineluctably problematic character”—Mark... more
In this paper I critically examine Heidegger’s interpretation of Trakl, focusing in particular on a possibility it opens up but just as soon forecloses: namely, the idea that spirit is inherently and insuperably riven. Rather than... more
In this article I analyze some key fragments of Plotinus, in which he argues that the One has a special kind of intellection and consciousness. I also try to establish possible sources of this doctrine and its meaning, and, for the better... more
L’appartenenza alla corrente onomatodossa dell’ortodossia determina i tratti essenzia- li della filosofia di A. F. Losev. Essa è intesa a mostrare il rivelarsi dell’Uno nelle cose tramite il nome. L’henologia di questo autore è... more
The article deals with the relation between Being and the One/the Good in Plato's philosiphy. From traditional point of view the One/the Good is 'beyond Being'. The author aims to show that this is problematic for ontology of Plato, both... more
Of the philosophers who presided over the Platonic Academy in its final phase, Syrianus, Proclus, and Damascius are certainly the ones who stand out. Much earlier, Plotinus had laid the foundations of the Neoplatonic system with his... more
Critically evaluating and synthesizing all the previous research on the phenomenology of Czech philosopher Jan Patočka, the book brings a new voice into contemporary philosophical discussions. It elucidates the development of Patočka's... more
En 1966, comment l'encyclopédie chinoise de J.L. Borges arbitre entre Michel Foucault et Michel Serres dans la loi CCNppp de Clavius.
What is a problem? As the origin of assertion and apodiction, the problematic suspends the categories of necessity and contingency, possibility and impossibility. And it is this suspension that is the essence of the problem, which is why... more

ΛΥΔΙΑ ΠΕΤΡΙΔΟΥ, Δρ. Φιλοσοφίας του Πανεπιστημίου Πατρών ***_ Η παρούσα μελέτη ασχολείται με το πώς ο Ιωάννης ο Δαμασκηνός εκλαμβάνει την έννοια του αιώνος, με τα επιμέρους θέματα περί του οντολογικού περιεχομένου του και περί τού σε ποιές... more
Теология Плотина часто рассматривается в мистическом аспекте. В нем видят больше опытного созерцателя, чем дискурсивного богослова. Но в последнее время также выходят работы, раскрывающие моменты положительного богословия философа.... more
The henology of Proclus seems to be fragile: If the Absolute is transcendent, how can it be the object of philosophical thought? The central thesis of this article is that the concept of the One in ourselves is the foundation of the... more
For Haas, it is time to revivify our other name in Greek: phos. For although the Greeks named us anthrôpos, they also called us phos. And the Greeks used the word phos because we are like light. Indeed, our way of being light-like is... more
What is time? Neither the numbering of the motion of things nor their schema, but their way of being. In language, time shows itself as tense. But every verb has both tense and aspect. So what is aspect? Irreducible to tense, it is the... more
