Through the analysis of some passages of the I, II, V and VI books, which deal with the question of the infinity of the universe and foreshadow the end of our world, the article will try to show the ethical implications of this teaching about the limit, also in relation to the discussion on death contained in the third book. jeu., 01 févr. 2024 13:46:55 +0100 jeu., 22 févr. 2024 13:59:03 +0100 https://www.peren-revues.fr/revue-k/1166 https://www.peren-revues.fr/revue-k/593 This article shows how romantic idyll and desertion resonate together to highlight the defective being of Charlot. From the saucy seducer of the beginnings, passing through the sentimentalism of the years 1915-1916, Chaplin experiments with the constant shaping of the character of the vagabond until he captures the singular expression of a being who creates his own love score within modern society. jeu., 04 janv. 2024 14:47:47 +0100 jeu., 15 févr. 2024 15:32:10 +0100 https://www.peren-revues.fr/revue-k/593 https://www.peren-revues.fr/revue-k/1187 This article essentially consists in deploying the stakes of the following idea of Lucretius: the void is an intangible and vacant place. By closely following these issues, we realize that they are inseparable from the place of emptiness for Nature and that the meet the issues of the relationship between spirit and matter (and the body). Furthermore, they open up avenues that will be taken by philosophies which are more contemporary to us (those of Badiou and Deleuze). Lucretius, by supporting a materialism including the intangible void has contributed more to make possible a materialism of the intangible Time and the event. Since the spirit arises from a series of events, shouldn't it be turned back to what it comes from and on the Place of the void in which we stand (body-and-soul)? It is this twist that this article also attempts to make. jeu., 01 févr. 2024 16:36:30 +0100 mar., 13 févr. 2024 13:34:52 +0100 https://www.peren-revues.fr/revue-k/1187 https://www.peren-revues.fr/revue-k/1282 In Lucretius' poem, the knowledge of natural phenomena offers an understanding of things capable of freeing human beings from ignorance and fears. This prescriptive dimension of nature seems foreign to modernity. In the present work, we start from this presumed difference between the two forms of investigation to show that science, despite the communis opinio, actually possesses a normative charge. In the last section, we will consider the prescriptive dimension of contemporary science to tackle the issues emerging from the current ecological crisis. ven., 09 févr. 2024 15:13:24 +0100 ven., 09 févr. 2024 15:13:43 +0100 https://www.peren-revues.fr/revue-k/1282
