The essay addresses the old problem of Platonic influence in the theme of soul in the Wisdom of Solomon. It analyzes three passages on soul—Wis 8:19–20, 15:8–9, 11, 16, and 16:13–14—and shows that they have unity in the image and in the method running through them. The unity of the method consists in combining biblical ...

In the concluding part of the Second Anti-Critique (1910), Max Weber summarizes the substantive
findings of his own contributions to the debate with the historian Felix Rachfahl. In doing so, he uses the response to his relentless critic as an opportunity to articulate once again, in an explicit manner and for both his own benefit and that of the ...

This article addresses the epistemological transformations of knowledge about the Other under platform culture. It examines the shift from the communicative experience of presence to a data regime in which otherness is constituted through predictive classification and interface routing. The platform is conceptualized as a system that presents the subject with an already-categorized Other, thereby ...

Лессинг Т., Silene Noctiflora, 2026.
Теодор Лессинг (1872–1933) — один из самых пессимистичных философов первой половины XX века. Последователь Фридриха Ницше и Артура Шопенгауэра, он пророчил неизбежную гибель западной цивилизации от себя самой. В своём сочинении «Про́клятая культура», написанном на основе речи, читанной в Обществе друзей индийской мудрости в 1921 году, он с особой экспрессией изложил основные положения своего мировоззрения, ...

Dezi A., Sesto San Giovanni: Mimesis, 2026.
This book is a metaphysical inquiry into the nature and origin of the manifold. Taking Schelling’s Erlangen lectures of 1820–1821 as its point of departure and hermeneutic horizon, it develops an interpretation of Nomos that transcends its political, juridical, and social determinations. Nomos thereby emerges as the ontological principle of an infinite, variegated multiplicity of ...

This article undertakes a socio-philosophical analysis of a situation in which the place of the Other within the structure of subjective experience is occupied by an algorithmic agent – an entity that simulates understanding yet remains devoid of genuine subjectivity. To investigate this configuration, the author turns to psychiatric practice as a representative case study: ...

Clarity of knowledge and reasoning is necessary in many cases. Yet vagueness in scientific thinking related to surprise, curiosity, "ability to engage with not-knowing" (de Freitas) and abductive reasoning is also a crucially important source of scientific creativity which supplements combinatorial logic when dealing with the already known. Starting from studies by C. S. Peirce ...

I propose to relate the puzzling rendering of סָבְאָם as Χαναναίους in Hos 4:18a LXX to the only other occurrence of סֹבֶא “strong drink, wine, or beer”, Isa 1:22, where the term is translated in the LXX as οἱ κάπηλοι “retailers”. Given that כְּנַעֲנִי “Canaanite” functioned as a designation for “trader”, I argue that both verses ultimately reflect ...

It has long been recognised that the LXX and Targumim share common exegesis of a number of verses and words. In contrast to the hypothesis of a direct influence of the early forms of Targumim on the LXX, I believe that these versions rather reflect a common approach to the interpretation of biblical texts, as ...

In the LXX-Psalter, in about 80% of cases, the choice between past, present, and future/non-indicative (in the present paper we consider future tense and non-indicative moods together) was predetermined by the tenses of the original. As for the remaining 20%, some of these “abnormal” renderings can be explained as inheriting the tense value from the ...

Согласно кумранским рукописям 1QIsa и 4QIsb (к сожалению, в других кумранских списках Исайи этот стих безнадежно поврежден): «В тот день будет пять городов в земле египетской, говорящих на языке Ханаана и клянущихся Господом Воинств.

Discussing the variants חבלי־מות in Psa 18,5 and משברי־מות in 2 Sam 22,5 I join Talmon in considering them not transmission errors, but synonymous readings. However, I demonstrate that the equating of these two terms as both denoting “birth pangs” is not attested in the Hebrew Bible but is a later exegetical development. I argue ...
