Jau Husserlio svarstymuose apie fantaziją randame punktyriškų nuorodų į svarbų jos veikimo aspektą – sąmonę, kuri, sužadinta galimybių regėjimo, atveria nederminuotų pasaulių perspektyvą. Šį klausimą praplečia ir visa jėga išplėtoja Sartre’as. Vaizduotė yra sąmonės laisvė – tai iš esmės pagrindinė veikalo „Imaginaire“ mintis. Tačiau šioje laisvėje slypi pamatinis ir neišskaidomas dvilypumas, gal net trilypumas. Kaip sako Sartre’as, „įsivaizdavimo aktas yra vienu ypu konstituojantis, izoliuojantis ir įniekinantis“. O tai reiškia, kad vaizduotiškai nihilistinė struktūra visose sąmonės fazėse identifikuojama kaip esminė žmogaus ir pasaulio santykio apibrėžtis. Pozicionuoti pasaulį kaip pasaulį ar jį „įniekinti“ (néantir) yra tas pats dalykas. Knygoje „L’être et le néant“ aprašoma sąmonė Niekį aptinka savo žvilgsnyje, kuris steigia akiračius ir apgaubia daiktus aureolėmis. Sartre’as sako: „mes matome, kaip niekis vaivorykštės spalvomis nuspalvina pasaulį, žaižaruoja ant daiktų“. Tai reiškia, kad Niekis užklumpa pasaulį kartu su šiuo matymu. Nihilistinės ligos pasirodymo metastazes, kurias priskiriame pasauliui, turime suvokti ne kaip daiktų savybes, bet vien tik kaip mūsų pačių santykį su daiktais, kaip tam tikrą intencionalumo, veikiančio pagal koordinacinę įsivaizdavimo logiką, išraišką.Pagrindiniai žodžiai: fenomenologija, vaizduotė, laisvė, nihilizmas, niekis.Sartre’s Magic Wand. Phenomenology and Nihilistic Freedom of ImaginationKristupas Sabolius SummaryIn Husserl’s writings on fantasy, one could already find references to an important aspect of its function, the one of the consciousness which, stimulated by the vision of its possibilities, opens the perspective of undetermined worlds. The latter topic is widely developed by Sartre. Imagination is the freedom of consciousness, this is the main idea of his Imaginaire. However, this freedom conceals a fundamental duplicity or even triplicity. As Sartre puts it, “the act of imagination is at the same time constituting, isolating and nihilating”. Consequently, the nihilistic and imaginary structure is identified in all the phases of consciousness as the essential definition of the relationship of human being to the world. To pose the world as the world or to nihilate (néantir) it is the same thing. In the description of L’être et le Néant, consciousness finds Nothingness in its own sight which constitutes horizons and covers things with halos. It means that Nothingness enters the world together with the sight and is supposed to be considered as an intentionality functioning according to the coordinating logics of imagination.Keywords: phenomenology, imagination, freedom, nihilism, Nothingness.

AbstractThe following work features elements to ponder and an in-depth explanation taken on the Anca Vasiliu’s study about the possibilities and ways of thinking of God by a rational entity, such as the human being. This is an ever relevant topic that, however, takes place in relation to Platonic authors and texts, especially in Late Antiquity. The common thread is that the human being is a God’s creature who resembles him and who is image of. Nevertheless, this also applies within the Christian Trinity according to which, not without problems, the Son is the image of the Father. Lastly, also the relationship of the Spirit with the Father and the Son, always within the Trinity, can be considered as a relationship of similarity, but again not without critical issues between the similarity of attributes, on the one hand, and the identity of nature, on the other.

This article highlights different ways of metaphorical use in language and shows its potential in attracting the readers' attention. Language as a biological being lives its own life witnessing never-ending changes: falling outs and newly built elements. We enrich our language not only by new elements but also by new styles and reusing of existing sources. One of these ways which makes language more alive and active is metaphor. Metaphor nowadays is found in all the fields of life, education, medicine, policy and everyday life. Metaphor, in fact, reflects the relationship of language to culture and the world of ideas. Language, on the one hand, is a repository of culture; the traditions, proverbs, and knowledge of our ancestors. On the other hand, language is the mirror of the world of ideas. People reflect their new ideas in using language in new ways, even such devices as paintings and riddles. Metaphor has many shapes and is found in spoken and written language, graphics, cartoon or caricature, riddles, jokes and paintings to express novel shades of meanings, e.g., metaphor in newspaper photos, magazines or even in advertisements attracts the attention of readers and are memorized for a long time. Metaphoric use is also a way of enjoying the readers. It is used for both real and logical aims such as; warnings, advises, or invitations ...etc

God did not create once and then put an end to it. Testimony from Scripture shows that God continuously establishes or creates new things. Humans can therefore expect to always see and experience new things in creation. With this pattern of reasoning, one can anticipate that the human being as image of God will continuously establish new things in history. Although nature has value, it does not have absolute value and therefore it can be synthesised responsibly. The thought that humans are stewards of God is no longer adequate to, theologically put into words, the relationship human beings have with nature. New biotechnological developments ask for different answers from Scripture. Several ethicists are of the opinion that the theological construction of humans and created co-creators can help found the relationship of the human being to nature. Humans developed as God’s image evolutionary. On the one hand, this means humans themselves are a product of nature. On the other hand, the fact that humans are the image of God is also an ethical call that humans, like God, have to develop and create new things throughout history. Synthetic biology can be evaluated as technology that is possible, because humans are the image of God. However, it should, without a doubt, be executed responsibly.Sintetiese biologie eties geëvalueer: Die skeppende God en medeskeppende mens. God het nie net eenmaal geskep en daar gestop nie. Uit Skrifgetuienisse kan afgelei word dat God voortdurend nuwe dinge tot stand bring of skep. Daarom kan die mens verwag om gedurig nuwe dinge in die skepping te sien en te beleef. Hiermee saam kan verwag word dat die mens as beeld van God voortdurend nuwe dinge in die geskiedenis tot stand sal bring. Alhoewel die natuur waarde het, het dit nie absolute waarde nie en kan dus verantwoordelik gesintetiseer word. Die gedagte dat die mens rentmeester van God is, is nie meer voldoende om die mens se verhouding tot die natuur teologies te verwoord nie. Nuwe biotegnologiese ontwikkelinge vra na ander antwoorde vanuit die Skrif. Verskeie etici is van mening dat die teologiese konstruksie van die mens as geskepte medeskepper kan help om die mens se verhouding tot die natuur te begrond. Die mens het deur ’n evolusionêre proses tot God se beeld ontwikkel. Aan die een kant beteken dit dat die mens self ’n produk van die natuur is. Aan die ander kant is beeldskap ook ’n etiese oproep dat die mens, soos God, nuwe dinge in die geskiedenis moet ontwikkel en skep. Sintetiese biologie kan gesien word as tegnologie wat moontlik is omdat die mens na die beeld van God geskape is. Sonder twyfel moet sintetiese biologie egter verantwoordelik beoefen word.

IN our communication to the Royal Society of Victoria of the 11th March, 1909 (1), describing our recent discovery of forty-two Tasmanian crania hitherto quite unknown to the world of science, we stated that “one of the earliest purposes to which it is proposed to utilise the present material is the determination of the relationship of the Tasmanian to the anthropoids and primitive man on the one hand, and to the Australian aboriginal on the other hand. Schwalbe's study of Pithecanthropus erectus (2) may serve as a basis for the former purpose, and Klaatsch's recent work (3) for the latter, though it must be remembered that innumerable authors have contributed to both subjects.” The present work is the fulfilment of the first part of this undertaking, namely, the determination of the relationship of the Tasmanian to the anthropoids and primitive man.

The article presents the results of a study related to the characteristics of the younger adolescents’ patriotic education throughout extracurricular activities. On the basis of system-activity approach and the concept of existential pedagogy, the author provides a definition of patriotic education as a purposeful interaction of the subjects in the pedagogical process, which results in learning about the system of phenomena in the world around us and the formation of personality, revealing moral feelings and transforming reality for the development of society and country. The concept of "patriotic education objectification" is defined as the relationship of joint activities for organizing educational events and students’ personality transformation as subjects forming the value of identity. The study reveals that the formation of certain levels of patriotism in younger teenagers is affected by the following objective conditions: school integration, family and social traditions, emphasis on external and internal elements and subject interaction in the implementation of extracurricular activities as pedagogical events.

The opening part of this paper presents the influences of Middle-Platonist philosophy discernible in the ontology presupposed in the Marsanes. These are particularly conspicuous in the hierarchical arrangement of reality. At the summit of the Universe there is Invisible God, second in the hierarchy comes Barbelo, the Mind, complete with the world of intellect (identified with Platonic ideas), then follows the Soul and the world of the sense perception, which is the reflection of ideas. The second part contains a discussion of the fragment NHC X 32, 12 - 33, 6. described in the literature as „Pythagorean”. The fragment contains reference to the two eternal principles: monas and dyas, as well as to the ten cosmogonical principles. In this context the question arises as to the relationship of the cosmogo­ny assumed in this fragment and the one presupposed by the author of the Middle- Platonist exposition. Finally, it is concluded, that the Marsanes cosmogony is typi­cal of its period in being a synthesis comprising themes drawn from ontology (and cosmology) of both: Neopythagoreanism and Middle-Platonism.

The article analyzes the relationship between structural changes and economic growth in the world economy and Russia. The authors note the emergence of a growth model in the world economy based on the complementarity of economic policies aimed, on the one hand, at the development of fundamental foundations of economic growth (institutions, human capital, infrastructure, macroeconomic stabilization), and, on the other hand, at initiating growth through structural reforms (even under stable foundations). Analyzing the trends of structural changes in the world economy, the authors consider new forms of structural policy, in particular, the ones oriented at the issue of identification of sectors — potential drivers of economic growth using the portfolio approach. A preliminary version of the model of Russian economy based on the multi-sector variety of the Thirlwall’s law is presented in the paper.

AbstractThe relationship of the energy required to break a particle or a particulate material vs. particle size has been studied by many researchers. On the one hand, mineral processing engineers, who are interested in the specific energy (in joules per cubic meter or joules per kilogram) required for grinding, almost agree that it is inversely proportional to the particle size, although they might disagree on the type of the relationship. On the other hand, building and structural engineers, who are mainly interested in the strength of materials (in newtons per square meter or pascals), they almost agree that at the size range of the elements used, their strength depends on the quality of the material rather than its size. The present article shows that both groups of engineers are right about the size range of the bodies used by each one. However, there is a critical size that determines the fracture behavior of a brittle material. The definition of the critical size can be used to understand the practical results obtained as well as to measure the surface tension of the tested materials.

This article belongs in the area of what Karl Jaspers calls “existential elucidation.” It is concerned less with political ideals than with the relationship of the person to those ideals and to the realities that often contradict them.During recent centuries political activity has been increasingly governed by the confidence that history is under human control. The tragedies and disappointments of the twentieth century, however, cast serious doubt on this confidence. Thus it is incumbent on us to reconsider man's whole stance in relation to history. The core of the article is the definition of an alternative stance, which I call “civility.”The clue to civility was provided by Plato when he suggested, in The Republic, that although the ideal city probably could not be realized in history, its form might be reproduced here and there in the souls of individuals. In pursuance of this clue, civility is defined, on the one hand, as partial detachment from action, and from the ideological preoccupations frequently accompanying action, and, on the other hand, as concentration on governance of the self. Although such governance entails historical independence, it does not set one apart from others; on the contrary, its fundamental principle is openess to the totality of the human.

Abstract Martin Heidegger was one of the most influential but also criticized philosophers of the XX century. With Being and Time 1927 he sets apart his existential analytic from psychology as well as from anthropology and from the other human sciences that deny the ontological foundation, overcoming the Cartesian dualism in search of the ontological unit of an articulated multiplicity, as human being is. Heidegger’s Dasein Analytic defines the fundamental structures of human being such as being-in-the-world, a unitary structure that discloses the worldhood of the world; the modes of being (Seinsweisen), such as fear (Furcht) and anxiety (Angst); and the relationship between existence and time. In his existential analytic, anxiety is one of the fundamental moods (Grundbefindlichkeit) and it plays a pivotal role in the relationship of Dasein with time and world. The paper firstly focuses on the modes of being, underlining the importance of anxiety for the constitution of human being; secondly, it shows the relationship between anxiety and the world, and anxiety and time: rejecting both the Aristotelian description of time, as a sequence of moments that informs our common understanding of time, and the Augustine’s mental account of inner time, Heidegger considers temporality under a transcendental point of view. Temporality is ek-static, it is a process through which human being comes toward and back to itself, letting itself encounter the world and the entities. The transcendental interpretation of time provided by Heidegger may give its important contribution to psychopathology.
