Vol. 8 No. 2 (2020): Dossiê “Origens da Filosofia Contemporânea”
The research group “Origins of Contemporary Philosophy” held its 10th annual international meeting in 2019. To celebrate it we organized this dossier of essays from various professors that have participated in the meetings throughout its history; the dossier offers a fair representation of the network of institutional relations the group is part of, as well as the intellectual work produced by this environment.
The aim of the group is to study the relations between analytic and phenomenological-hermeneutical philosophy with a focus on the origins of contemporary philosophy, starting from the establishment of its common roots and their subsequent reciprocal isolation. The group’s working hypothesis is that both analytic and phenomenological-hermeneutical philosophy represent a common change, from the point of view of the history of philosophy, that can be characterized as the displacement of the concept of validity (Geltung) to the concept of sense (Sinn).
