Title: Socrate analista; Socrates as therapist Authors: Polidori, Fabio Abstract: The article is devoted to a critical analysis of Lacan’s interpretation of Socrates’s philosophical figure. According to Lacan, in Plato’s writings Socrates plays a role similar to that of a therapist. If so, this role brings to the fore a dimension of philosophical discourse that usually stays in the background: the dimension of desire and its relations both to the subject and to the truth. If it is impossible to rule out desire and its relations from philosophical and dialogical practice, then absolutistic claims concerning the search for truth fail. Type: Articolo

Title: Hume: passioni, contenuto cognitivo, razionalità; Hume: passions, cognitive content, rationality Authors: Marrone, Pierpaolo Abstract: The article focuses on the relations between passions and cognition in Hume’s philosophy. Although it is widely recognised that Hume attributed a central role to emotions in our natural structure, it is not frequently understood that in Hume’s conceptual framework passions themselves have a gnoseological content. In this paper some arguments are provided in order to show that this is the case. Type: Articolo

Title: Dall’etica senza ecologia all’ecologia senza l’etica. Sui difficili rapporti morali tra uomo e natura; From ethics without ecology to ecology without ethics. On the difficult moral relations between human beings and nature Authors: Greblo, Edoardo Abstract: Modern philosophical tradition has generally paid little attention to nature as an object of moral inquiry. In this tradition, only human beings are entitled to have moral rights. Recently, however, growing ecological problems and the shift from metaethics to normative ethics have changed this conceptual framework. The aim of the article is to show that, on a kantian basis, an interpersonal ethics can be applied to nature itself, precisely because, in the kantian paradigm, the rationale for excluding nature from moral citizenship are metaphisical and not persuasively moral.

Title: Il concetto di libertà nella tradizione repubblicana: una rassegna concettuale; The concept of liberty in the Republican tradition Authors: Giorgini, Giovanni Abstract: The author investigates the origin and development of the concept of liberty and its special meaning in the Republican tradition of political thought. The origin of the Western concept of liberty lies in ancient Greece, in the opposition between liberty and slavery conceived after the liberation of Athens from tyranny and the victory over the Persian empire. The author then investigates the Republican notion of liberty that originates in ancient Rome and reaches its peak with Cicero. This conception of liberty emphasizes self-government and partecipation in common deliberation and runs through Western political thought up to Rousseau, Tocqueville and the authors of the Federalist Papers.
