Opis:: It stands to reason that a criterion is needed that can serve as a common denominator for weighing or assessing different values or ideals. Dignity is offered as a possible candidate, to be presented from religio-legal and cross-cultural vantages. A definition will be offered for dignity and its parts defended throughout the paper. The approach is not only not rigorously analytic – there are no case studies – but is instead a presentation of topic areas where we should expect to find the concept of dignity to be relevant. Utilizing a rights-moral and duties-ethical framework, it is in essence an argument for further elevating the prestige of dignity so that it might provide a widely-accepted groundwork for ethics and morality. .

Opis:: Preview: /Review of William Lad Sessions’, Honor For Us: A Philosophical Analysis, Interpretation and Defense (New York: Continuum, 2010), 226 pages./ William Lad Sessions in his Honor for Us: A Philosophical Analysis, Interpretation and Defense has written what is likely the very first philosophy of honor as a concept. In writing the definitive text he has done “honor” an inestimable service, though we shall require some few revisions to his presentation. He first identifies five general categories of honor, beginning with the two kinds of honor best known by their forms: conferred honor comes from being the best at something, what we will refer to as some “concrete” act, while recognition honor comes from an “excellence” that must be found, not made. We will say that these two forms refer in fact to “achievements” and “participations grounding excellence”, respectively.

Opis:: This paper attempts to illustrate a process of analysis that will hopefully open a path to more complete and useful definitions of sign and symbol. It applies a form-content analysis to the metaphysical properties of these two concepts. The objective is to locate criteria necessary and sufficient to derive formal definitions for these terms. Wittgenstein’s concept of “forms of representation” is analyzed and applied to the topic. Criteria are outlined that determine the appropriateness of the sign and symbol to be applied as labels. Criteria of definition are then developed using gesture, metaphor, and several other example types to illustrate the use of the criteria in distinguishing between sign and symbol. The structural organization of these two concepts proved to be especially complex and led to what some readers may find somewhat obscure. It is not our intention to be purposefully obscure.

Opis:: This paper asserts that honor-based peoples have and maintain a distinct cultural identity that is valid for at least eighty-five percent of the world population. It is necessarily considered relative to dignity-based societies which make up the other fifteen percent. Practically all dignity-based cultures originated during the Enlightenment; modern honor-based groups will oftentimes through diffusion manifest some dignity-based traits or observe fewer of the traditional honor-based features. This paper will survey both traditional and modern forms of the honor-based culture.

Opis:: This paper compares Dilthey’s efforts to confront cultural friction with Nietzsche’s philosophy as it impacts such conflicts. Both authors recognize various legitimate claims on behalf of the Romantics, while also admiring certain Enlightenment doctrines as well. While Dilthey recommends cross-cultural understanding, Nietzsche puts forth his Zarathustrian ideal as a general solution to mankind’s problems, cultural and otherwise. While cross-cultural understanding holds out promise, it seems not to be able to avert all wars, while Nietzsche’s Zarathustrianism offers little utility in achieving its promises.

Opis:: Preview: /Review: Michael Webb, The Whole at Once: A Conversation on Meaning (Austin,TX: Fire Hill Press, 2020), 244 pages./ This is a book about a phenomenological challenge: to reach the depths of meaning. It relies principally on becoming aware of the self and of the core essence of wholes, be they collections of objects or sentences or ideas. But meaning is the end point constituting, according to the author, a drive more powerful even than the will to live (WO, 137). It lies beyond any given perspective. The work is presented as a dialogue between student and master; its 244 pages actually make for a quick and relatively easy read, not burdening the reader with jargon. It intends to be a popular presentation but without skimping on issues of relevance to philosophy.
