Sleep of Reason

Sex is beyond reason, and yet we constantly reason about it. So, too, did the peoples of ancient Greece and Rome. But until recently there has been little discussion of their views on erotic experience and sexual ethics. The Sleep of Reason brings together an international group of philosophers, philologists, literary critics, and historians to consider two questions normally kept separate: how is erotic experience understood in classical texts of various kinds, and what ethical judgments and philosophical arguments are made about sex? From same-sex desire to conjugal love, and from Plato and Aristotle to the Roman Stoic Musonius Rufus, the contributors demonstrate the complexity and diversity of classical sexuality. They also show that the ethics of eros, in both Greece and Rome, shared a number of commonalities: a focus not only on selfmastery, but also on reciprocity; a concern among men not just for penetration and display of their power, but also for being gentle and kind, and for being loved for themselves; and that women and even younger men felt not only gratitude and acceptance, but also joy and sexual desire.

Pauliina Remes and Juha Sihvola In the course of history, philosophers have given an impressive variety of answers to the question, “What is self?” Some of them have even argued that there is no such thing at all. This volume explores the various ways in which selfhood was approached and conceptualised in antiquity. How did the ancients understand what it is that I am, fundamentally, as an acting and affected subject, interpreting the world around me, being distinct from others like and unlike me? The authors hi- light the attempts in ancient philosophical sources to grasp the evasive character of the specifically human presence in the world. They also describe how the ancient philosophers understood human agents as capable of causing changes and being affected in and by the world. Attention will be paid to the various ways in which the ancients conceived of human beings as subjects of reasoning and action, as well as responsible individuals in the moral sphere and in their relations to other people. The themes of persistence, identity, self-examination and self-improvement recur in many of these essays. The articles of the collection combine systematic and historical approaches to ancient sources that range from Socrates to Plotinus and Augustine.

Fresh translations of key texts, exhaustive coverage from Plato to Kant, and detailed commentary by expert scholars of philosophy add up to make this sourcebook the first and most comprehensive account of the history of the philosophy of mind. Published at a time when the philosophy of mind and philosophical psychology are high-profile domains in current research, the volume will inform our understanding of philosophical questions by shedding light on the origins of core conceptual assumptions often arrived at before the instauration of psychology as a recognized subject in its own right. The chapters closely follow historical developments in our understanding of the mind, with sections dedicated to ancient, medieval Latin and Arabic, and early modern periods of development. The volume’s structural clarity enables readers to trace the entire progression of philosophical understanding on specific topics related to the mind, such as the nature of perception. Doing so revealsthe fascinating contrasts between current and historical approaches. In addition to its all-inclusive source material, the volume provides subtle expert commentary that includes critical introductions to each thematic section as well as detailed engagement with the central texts. A voluminous bibliography includes hundreds of primary and secondary sources. The sheer scale of this new publication sheds light on the progression, and discontinuities, in our study of the philosophy of mind, and represents a major new sourcebook in a field of extreme importance to our understanding of humanity as a whole.

Nykyajan etiikka selvittää globalisoituneen elämänmuodon eettisiä ja yhteiskunnallisia haasteita. Kirjoittajat pohtivat ihmisenä olemisen ehtoja nykyaikana sekä analysoivat yhteiskunnallisten ratkaisujen ja kehitysvaihtoehtojen arvoperustaa. He painottavat, että on tärkeää kartoittaa kehityksen suuntaan vaikuttavia rakenteita ja keskustella niistä avoimesti. Ilkka Niiniluodon johtama asiantuntijaryhmä tarkastelee liiketoiminnan etiikkaa, kuluttajan asemaa kansalaisena, maaseutua yhteiskunnallisena kysymyksenä, ihmisen sisäisiä ulottuvuuksia, valistuksen perintöä, uskonnon merkitystä ja fundamentalismin uhkaa. Teos tarjoaa syvällisen analyysin ajastamme ja haastaa lukijan ottamaan kantaa maailman kohtalonkysymyksiin. Nykyajan etiikka on Ilkka Niiniluodon johtaman asiantuntijaryhmän neljäs teos. Pääministeri Esko Aho pyysi syksyllä 1993 Niiniluotoa kokoamaan ryhmän, jonka tehtävänä oli esittää kansalaispuheenvuoro maamme henkisestä tilasta ja tulevaisuuden näkymistä. Työryhmä julkaisi helmikuussa 1994 teoksen Suomen henkinen tila ja tulevaisuus. Hiukan pienemmässä kokoonpanossa he julkaisivat vuonna 1996 jatkoteoksen Euroopan henkinen tila ja tulevaisuus sekä vuonna 2000 globalisaation ongelmia kriittisesti käsittelevän teoksen Maailman henkinen tila ja tulevaisuus.
