13A Teoria da Escravidão Natural de Aristóteles a Francisco de VitóriaRevista Portuguesa de Filosofia 75 (3): 1785-1800. 2019.The aim of this essay is to analyze the treatment of the theory of natural slavery in Francisco de Vitoria’s thought through his reception of Aquino’s treatise on justice and the Aristotelian theory of natural slavery as described in book I of Politics. In order to understand how Vitoria distances himself from Aquinas, by considering the ius gentium as a positive right, I analyze Victoria’s comments on the Summa Theologica. Finally, I consider Question 1 of the relectio De Indis, where Victoria …Read more

2Certified Logic-Based Explainable AI – The Case of Monotonic ClassifiersIn Virgile Prevosto & Cristina Seceleanu (eds.), Tests and Proofs: 17th International Conference, TAP 2023, Leicester, UK, July 18–19, 2023, Proceedings, Springer Nature Switzerland. pp. 2147483647-2147483647. 2023.The continued advances in artificial intelligence (AI), including those in machine learning (ML), raise concerns regarding their deployment in high-risk and safety-critical domains. Motivated by these concerns, there have been calls for the verification of systems of AI, including their explanation. Nevertheless, tools for the verification of systems of AI are complex, and so error-prone. This paper describes one initial effort towards the certification of logic-based explainability algorithms, …Read more

2El arte de comunicar en Karol WojtylaAnuario Filosófico 34 (3): 759-767. 2001.Cicero and Wojtyla see the art of oratory as an integral part of the growth of mankind. Cicero considers communication as a fountain of noble action. At the same time, Wojtyla considers the word in its spiritual sense, elevating all human beings towards beauty. Both authors teach us that those who communicate with moral dignity and creativity construct a humanized culture.

5A import'ncia das humanidades na construção do conhecimentoFilosofia E Educação 11 (1): 195-217. 2019.O presente artigo abordará a construção do conhecimento em Giambattista Vico embasando-se no discurso De Nostri Temporis Studiorum. Com a troca da “imaginação” pela “racionalidade”, colocou-se de lado a engenhosidade humana, anulando assim a verossimilhança que fora negada por não apresentar verdades factuais levando à atrofia do engenho. O intuito aqui é analisar o desenvolvimento imaginativo proposto por Vico, gerando uma nova crítica. Conclui-se sobre uma possível epistemologia das humanidade…Read more

A criança, desde muito cedo, procura se adaptar ao espaço e ao tempo em que está situada. As primeiras estruturas mentais se constroem em função das coordenações do corpo no espaço e das sequências temporais das ações. Sendo então a criança um ser ativo, acreditamos que podem ser desenvolvidas práticas pedagógicas na Educação Infantil que se o…Read more
