Finding Oneself Well Together with Others
Based on critical readings of Martin Heidegger’s Being and Time and Aristotle’s Nicomachean Ethics, the paper offers a phenomenological study of the ontology of well-being that transcends the opposition between subjective and objective being. By interpreting the Heideggerian notion of Befindlichkeit as the fundamental way in which humans find themselves in the world, being affected by and faced with their own existence, the paper opens a way to u…
When the bile turns black
The paper delves into the origins of the ancient Greek concept of melancholy. The purpose of the first part is to trace a precursor of melancholy back to Homer’s description of certain emotions which are congenial with rage (cholos), and which are associated with the colour black (melainos). Based on a systematic interpretation of these traces of melancholy in the earliest premedical history, the second part of the paper will shed new light on th…
Realising Unfulfillable and Impossible Ethical Demands
Hospitality and companionship
Taking its starting point in an ancient understanding of hospitality and guest friendship, the paper offers a philosophical interpretation of the ethical dimension of alliances. Entering into an alliance presupposes certain ethical dispositions. First is trust, which allies develop over time by offering each other testimonies of trustworthiness and by keeping promises. Insofar as the alliance is developed further in order to last, the allies will…

The dynamics of play - back to the basics of playing
In his seminal work Homo ludens the Dutch historian Johan Huizinga laid out the pieces for a theory of play rooted in anthropological and cultural analysis, but he did not gather the pieces into a systematic account of the dynamics of play. Starting out from Huizinga's observations of a common pattern in how play is designated and expressed in different languages, the paper argues that we need a deeper phenomenological analysis of what goes on at…
Re-educating the Body
This article means to investigate the philosophical concept of human embodiment in relation to physical education. As human beings not only do we have a body that we can control, but we ‘are’ our body and live embodied in the world, as the German thinker, Helmuth Plessner, puts it in one of his many contributions to the philosophical anthropology of the twentieth century. Elaborating on this concept of human embodiment, the article explores a for…
