1	`The best of all possible worlds´? Rettová, Alena 30 November 2012 (has links) (PDF) The German philosopher and mathematican Gottfried Wilhelm Leibnitz, maintained that this world god created was the best of all possible worlds. God could not have created a world that would contain a contradiction. In Descartes`opossed view, it was possible for God to create a world containing contradictions. The two philosophers`s dispute concerned the issue of what is it that is necessary, as opossed to that which is arbitrary, in a created world. Against this background, I would like to discuss William E. Mkufya`s novel, Ziraili na Zirani.

4	Vom Umgang mit kulturellen Differenzen in der Philosophie Wimmer, Franz Martin 30 June 2023 (has links) Intercultural encounters often have been determined by the misleading tendency to interpret different traits of another culture almost automatically as deficient. Examples from history and philosophy are discussed and analysed: namely colonialism, Leibniz, Herder, Hegel and race theories of the 19th and 20th century. Three possible valuations of one’s own culture are discussed which can be seen as being exclusively valuable, equal to all others, or complimentary to others. Describing the latter as the most adequate interpretation, the author argues for dialogical or rather polylogical interactions in the field of philosophy. This does not, however, exclude centristic tendencies. Therefore, finally four different types of centrism are proposed as influential patterns in intercultural encounters: expansive, integrative, separative, and tentative centrism. This concluding discussion of centrisms hopes to establish fruitful models of intercultural interactions in philosophy and related fields. info:eu-repo/classification/ddc/780 ddc:780
5	Hledání lidského štěstí ve Voltairových povídkách / Search of happiness in Voltaire's novels Pokšteflová, Marie January 2011 (has links) My diploma thesis called Search of happiness in Voltaire's novels aims to analyse the theme of happiness in prose works Micromegas, L'Ingénu, Zadig and Candide. The analysis is preceded by an introduction showing the evolution of the theme of happiness through different historical periods. This theoretical part is also followed by a definition of philosophical novel as a typical Voltaire's way of expressing his philosophical thoughts. The analysis itself underlines common points of view found in the novels which all describe a world full of evil, disasters and misfortune. Good and honest heroes enter into this bad world and they struggle to find their place in the sun. Their nice personalities present a big contrast to the merciless world which surrounds them. The analysed examples from novels highlight major problems in Voltaire's time but a lot of parallels are found in today's world. I systematically pay attention to these parallels throughout the diploma. The analysis leads to the description of incorrigibly bad world, where only small islands of happiness can be found represented by friendship and love. We can only deal with such a life thanks to a meaningful activity which can make it bearable. The philosopher's approach to the theme which still captures people's attention is evaluated in the...
