Ringrazio molto Guido Baggio e Maria Regina Brioschi per aver voluto organizzare e curare questo simposio sulla raccolta di saggi da poco pubblicata dalla casa editrice Carabba, che ha generosamente accolto il progetto del volume. A Michela Bella, Giovanni Maddalena e Marco Stango va la mia sincera gratitudine per l’attenzione puntuale e la cura con cui hanno letto i miei scritti, per i commenti e le questioni sicuramente importanti che hanno pre…
Le naturalisme de William James
Dans cet article, l'auteur examine le naturalisme de James comme un exemple des intersections entre la biologie, la psychologie et la philosophie. L'article reconstruit les principaux arguments épistémologiques, éthiques et métaphysiques de James pour montrer comment sa philosophie s'inscrit dans la biologie de Darwin. Ainsi, le contingentisme de James devient cohérent avec sa critique de l'interprétation du principe darwinien de la « sélection n…
La lógica naturalista de Dewey
La elegante traduccin al espaol de Lgica. Teora de la investigacin, realizada por ngel Faerna, confirma la importancia cultural, y no slo filosfica, del pensamiento de Dewey, uno de los autores norteamericanos ms estudiados hasta la fecha. Considerado en muchos sentidos como un punto de referencia ricamente sugerente para abordar viejos y nuevos "problemas del hombre" -por utilizar el ttulo de un conocido volumen de Dewey -, este autor se presta,…
Knowing ourselves and recognizing others
Neste ensaio, enquadro a narrativa de Rorty com relação ao ego na história das filosofias moderna e contemporânea. Minha tese é que sua rejeição tanto do introspectivismo cartesiano quanto das explicações reducionistas psico-biológicas nasce originalmente de uma epistemologia do ego que está alinhada aos insights de Hume sobre a contingência da individualidade, mas também, introduz uma abordagem complexa à questão filosófica sobre a relação entre…
Replies to Michela Bella, William Curtis, and Emil Višňovský
for hosting a symposium on this book and Michela Bella for her editorial work. Each of the three contributions to the symposium grasps some key features of my work, indeed the spirit that animated it, even if, at times, my statements are not entirely explicit. Since the criticisms are especially generous towards my theoretical commitment, I consider the three contributions as an exemplary testimony to the dialogical form of philosophical discussi…
Scientific Method and Juridical Accountability in Mario Calderoni’s Pragmatism
The paper firstly reconstructs Mario Calderoni’s criticism of the Jamesian version of pragmatism, which corresponds to his philosophical choice in favor of the ethical value assigned by Peirce to the scientific-experimental method. In this light, I propose a reading of some Calderoni’s arguments concerning the link between the construction of beliefs, practical norms and moral or legal responsibility, trying to reassess his criticisms of James an…
The ambiguity of norms. Steps towards a new pragmatic anthropology
The paper aims at indicating the relevance of the issue of normativity for the construction of a "new" philosophical anthropology focused on the pragmatic criteria embedded with classical pragmatism, late Wittgenstein's philosophy, and neopragmatism alike. In particular, their common project of putting aside the traditional foundationalism will be considered in order to checking whether and how is it possible to picture an image of the human bein…
Introduction to Pragmatism and Psychologism
Testo introduttivo delle curatrici al numero monografico dello European Journal of Pragmatism and American Philosophy dedicato al tema "Pragmatism and Psychologism". Sebbene l'introduzione sia stata elaborata insieme dalle due autrici, il primo paragrafo è attribuibile a Rosa Maria Calcaterra, mentre il secondo paragrafo deve essere attribuito a Roberta Dreon
Categorical Ways of Acting
This paper proposes the “conceptual pragmatism” of C. I. Lewis as a useful epistemological orientation for studying the relationship between the social and individual registers, in particular as it is set out in Bourdieu’s sociology of practice. Bourdieu’s concepts of habits based upon ‘social schematism’ and of culture as a ‘second nature,’ as well as Lewis’ conception of logical schemas constructed by humans are all formulated in the wake of Ka…
Chance and Regularities
The relationship between regularity and chance, or necessity and contingency, is a common concern of classical pragmatists. The metaphysical quality of this issue flows into the construction of postmodern discourse, although in a very different framework and, paradoxically, under the auspices of the anti-metaphysics that such a discourse claims. This paper proposes at first a brief reconstruction of the chance and regularity issue in postmodernis…
Joseph Margolis’ Pragmatism between Narrative and Prophecy
It is common knowledge that pragmatism acquired a new and quite relevant space within European philosophical debate during the second half of Nineteen Century, and the leading actors of such a renewed interest for the classics of American thought have been Karl Otto Apel and Jürgen Habermas. Especially in Italy, the so called revival of pragmatism took place via their neo-kantianianism, and actually one could say that the pragmatist thought has b…
Epistemology of the Self in a Pragmatic Mood
One of the most characteristic features of classical pragmatism is the opposition to the Cartesian principle of self-transparency, a principle which in fact has been widely criticized also by Marx, Freud and a number of twentieth century's philosophers. Thus, the notion of the authenticity of the self seems nowadays almost unsustainable, and the so called 'dissolution of the subject' -brought about by in the second half of last centurymight be co…
