    El don y la deuda
    (Universidad de Sevilla, 1992) Rojas Parada, Pedro
    This article, which takes its starting-point from a book by M. Zarader (La dette impensée, Seuil, Paris, 1990) dealing with the relationship between Heidegger and Jewish thought, is an attempt to reflect on "double bind logic" (Derrida, Levinas, Lyotard) which govems every donation, inheritance and debt-repayment. It is only possible to receive and welcome that which one is not expecting to receive, that which is not, as it were, "received". Thus, conceiving of the gift as an unforeseeable event, how can one duly recognize and retum what has come from another?

    Tras las huellas de Sileno. Imágenes del conocer
    (Universidad de Sevilla, 1992) Pérez de Tudela Velasco, Jorge
    The purpose of this paper is to appeal, even though quite shortly, to sorne of the problematic dimensions involved in a cognitive capacity certainly enigmatic: the power of remaking the stream of experience, concluding, not only causes from effects, but also relevant facts from their signs. This capacity may be found in the basis of the most primary possibility of finding one's way in the world, being thus the support of a development in reality to which philosophical reflection has paid much attention in different ways. It has been Charles Sanders Peirce's excellence which made us know that this mechanism of knowledge responds to a rational pattem: the first step of every investigation, the abductive form of inference, that is one's own adoption to an interpretative hypothesis about facts. It is quite clear that the matter we here dealt with, is the relationship what is perceptible and what is intelligible, taking into account all the meaning of those words.

    Razón e historia en L. Geymonat
    (Universidad de Sevilla, 1992) Minués, Carlos
    The article stresses the rationalist attitude of L. Geymonat, integrating it within a conception of rationalism which may be termed enlightened. His thought evolves from logical-formalist to dialectic positions. In this last period, history assumes a basic role in explaining the process of scientific-technical patrimony.

    Libertad inalienable y democracia utópica en Rousseau
    (Universidad de Sevilla, 1992) López Castellón, Enrique
    The fundamental convention, which Rousseau calls "the social contract", is that which creates the state. He tells us that the question of its historical origin is unanswerable, and propases to discuss its legitimacy. The political body thus created is a society of free assent and not of force, and a union of each with ali on equal terms for the common welfare. Such union creates the democratic state, where law is the voice of the "general will", and it alone provides security in human rights. However, Rousseau and others political philosophers were not really trying to give an objective answer to a single question, namely, "What are the grounds of political obligation?" at ali: they were each prescribing a particular political system. This paper put forward a proposal to the problem of democracy as utopia and clarifies the grounds for totalitarian and libertarian interpretations.

    ¿Son los derechos humanos valores jurídicos?
    (Universidad de Sevilla, 1992) Herrera Flores, Joaquín

The Objectivity of values; 3. The relations between values and needs; 4. A theory of goods that integrates social and institutional concepts. Human Rights are not legal values.

    Números, totalidades y análisis fenomenológico
    (Universidad de Sevilla, 1992) García Baró, Miguel
    This study -the opening fragment of a forthcoming book entitled Categorías, intencionalidad y número- is divided into three clearly-distinct sections. The first is a commentary on the introduction to Husserl's On the concept of number, which sets forth the very bases which served as the historical starting-point for the research programme of the creator of phenomenology. The second section discusses the problem of the predication of numbers, showing how the theory of the young Husserl is superior to that of Frege in The fundaments of arithmetic. The third part is an aporetical presentation of the most general problems affecting the notion of totality, as an essential introduction to the ontoIogy of numbers.

    La comarca del extraño
    (Universidad de Sevilla, 1992) Duque, Félix
    In the wake of the recent publication of Heidegger's posthumous writing Beitriige zur Philosophie, this paper offers a meditation about the sense of Western Civilization, after the Second World War, seen as the manifestation of a destiny. Such a destiny discloses the defeat of the conjugation of the Jewish-Christian tradition, the Greek tendencies and modern science: Truth, Way (the teleology of Being), and Life. That defeat does not reveal a simple nihilistic reversal of those leading words, but the hidden ground of their affirmation and negation: Recusation (Verweigerung), Country (Gegend) and "Occisio" (Abgeschiedenheit). Too late for hope and too late for pain, Celan and Trakl go along this margin, already present in the precise and ambiguous Latín word "Occidens", whose derivaties point at once toward the victim and to the carnifex. So are the Beitriige the warning of the impossibility of "doing" philosophy (as one does, for instance, Computer Science or Genetical Engineering), even before Auschwitz.

    Individualidad romántica y pluralismo
    (Universidad de Sevilla, 1992) Díaz Urmeneta, Juan José
    In the work of Sir Isaiah Berlín there is a significant thematic nucleus: the study of the origins of the Russian Intelligentsia. Within this framework are forged sorne of the central ideas of Professor Berlin's particular form of Iiberalism. Above ali, the connexion between a proposal for a unity of theory and practice and a pluralist vision. This distinguishes Berlin's thought from the doctrinaire liberalism of Hayek or the critica! rationalism of Popper, and has its roots in an understanding of romantic individuality and the possibilities of esthetic Ianguage which Berlin appears to take from the life and works of Belinsky, Herzen, Turgenev and, in a diferent way, from Tolstoy.

    Paisaje tras la estival batalla
    (Universidad de Sevilla, 1992) Díaz, Carlos
    Present-day academic philosophy is frequently centered round a language which, far from serving as a vehicle for reality, is often entangled in fruitless complications. "Compulsive discourse-centrism" -as distinct from inevitable logocentrism- reveals an underlying egocentrism which blocks all possibility of dialogue and inclines towards an attitude of nihilism. This modero philosophical attitude, in thrall to the word, shirks one of man's most pressing problems: evil, which would appear to be an essential companion on man's historical voyage. As against this, a personal religious attitude reminds us that "the history of reason was bom of the Word, and not vice-versa". Perhaps this attitude should be adopted today, in order to counteract all that is negative in política! life. A problem already raised in such different symbolic texts as the myth of Prometheus or the Bíblica! tale from Adam to Abraham. We must question the four obsolete paradigms of our Enlightenment --omniscience, disintegrative individualism, suspicion as a basic attitude and conflict between faith and reason- while also aiming at correction in four directions: extending science into consciousness, thinking-with and thinking-for, adopting a lucid ingenuousness and, finally, recalling without ceasing to think and pray. Only thus can dialogical reason be extended into eutopoprophetic reason.
