34Toward Moral Sublimity: Elements of a Theory of HumorThe Philosophy of Humor Yearbook 3 (1): 25-62. 2022.This article outlines a new theory of humor. The concept of humor is developed in the sense of five dialectical levels, respectively, sequential phenomenalities of humorous consciousness. These range from a level of most inferior humor up to a stage of most sublime humor. Systematically speaking, humor is viewed from an enhanced perspective of transcendental philosophy, namely as a medium of self-unfolding practical reason. It is considered as a complementary potency to the practical force of th…Read more

24Transcultural Philosophy and Its Foundations in Implicate LogicAsian Studies · Azijske Študije 10 (3): 107-126. 2022.This article provides a transcultural, “transversal” investigation. It starts from the philosophical problem of knowing non-knowing. In chapters 1 and 2, the first expressions of this problem by Confucius and Socrates are considered.

It refers to the reflection of unity of unity and difference and therefore to the very condition of the possibility of (…Read more

Preceded by a general exposition on the topic of the inconceivability of the experience of the foundational autopoietic self-reference of thinking and speaking, this article shows how Nicolaus Cusanus has developed a complex approach to the problem of an “ineffable way of speaking” (ineffable fari). Cusanus developed a s…Read more

10庫薩的尼古拉哲學中的鏡面隱喻 The Mirror Metaphor in the Philosophy of Nicolas of CusaJidujiao Wenhua Xuekan 基督教文化學刊 Journal for the Study of Christian Culture 40 92-107. 2018.The mirror metaphor has been an essential asset especially during the pre-modern history of philosophy. The present article is concerned with its use in the philosophy of the German thinker Nicolas of Cusa (1401-1464).

9The Understanding of Understanding: A Philosophical Reflection from a Transcultural PerspectiveInternational Communication of Chinese Culture 8 (1): 121-143. 2021.The basic question of this article is: “What is understanding?” The objective is to initiate a process and a state of self-reflexivity which might best be defined as an understanding of understanding. In this self-referential philosophical setting, it cannot be our aim to attempt to produce any (alleged) final answers, because cognitive self-referentiality, taken as a source principle of mind, is without beginning and end. However, it is feasible to explore possibilities of a continuously increa…Read more

An “anacrusis” regarding the origin of the philosophical term ‘cosmic life’ is followed by systematic groundwork in relation to Gotthard Günther’s concepts of poly-contexturality and trans-classical science. These are extended and complemented by the views of other thinkers. Against this background…Read more

王阳明之“真己”修养观:全球共同体 视域下发展开放性的自我认同 [The Cultivation of the ‘True Self’ (zhen ji 真己) in the Light of Wang Yangming: Perspectives on the Development of an Open Self-identity in Planetary Communality]Dangdai Zhongguo Jiazhiguan Yanjiu 当代中国价值观研究 Chinese Journal of Contemporary Values 38 (2): 76-86. 2022.本文旨在探究王阳明之“真己”修养观,以相关同等理念“心之本体”以 及《传习录》中的“原只是个天理”为出发点,进而思考王阳明哲学中提出的“本体” “躯壳”“嘘吸”“同体”“形体”“灵明”等术语,以及更为久远的概括性词语,如“体” “躯”和“大体”。此外,通过“性”与“气”、“理”与“气”等关联词,王阳明的哲学箴 言“知行合一”、“气”不可分(即“一气流通”)以及“原无非礼”的观点(与其著名的 “良知”一词有关),阐述了他对于“已”的理解。文章还探究了王阳明为何会如此 关注“己”这一古词,以及他所提出的“真己”一词与旧词相比有着哪些重要变化。 最后,文章思考了当今全球共同体的背景下,我们应该如何利用王阳明思想建立 包容又开放的自我认知。王阳明提出的有关人的观点,例如“一嘘吸”和“体网络”——“活力系统”以及“身”——“具象人格”,均根植于“真己”这一概念。这些 思想必须自我修养而成,这也适用于满足当前全球时代精神的迫切需要。[The topic of this investigation centers around the idea of the cultivation of the '…Read more
