In 1968, twenty-eight years after Walter Benjamin's death, Hannah Arendt published a literary portrait of Benjamin that questioned the Frankfurt School's editorial infringements on and interpretive ...appropriations of Benjamin's work. In recent discussions of her intervention in the debate that had escalated upon Theodor W. Adorno and Gershom Scholem's publication of Benjamin's letters in 1966, it has been neglected that Arendt published two versions of her portrait, American and German. This article shows that the American version differs significantly from the German as it amplifies a characteristic citation method through which Arendt performatively preserves and promotes Benjamin's work. Thus, the American version indicates how Arendt transformed her strong editorial commitment to rescuing European Jewish cultural heritage after the Holocaust into a critical method. The initial occasion for Arendt's portrait was her American Benjamin edition Illuminations (1968), toward which she had begun working since her arrival in New York in 1941. The edition's continuing global distribution demonstrates the lasting impact of Arendt's intervention.
Prosvjetiteljsko-romantičarski odnos prema antičkom naslijeđu u posljednjim desetljećima 18. i prvim desetljećima 19. stoljeća postavio je rimsku Salonu na mapu atraktivnih europskih nalazišta. ...Usporedno s osnivanjem institucija nadležnih za brigu i očuvanje salonitanskih spomenika, raste i zanimanje antikvara za novootkrivenim predmetima, kako domaćih tako i stranih. Za strance je građu često nabavljalo lokalno stanovništvo, a o kolekcijama koje su se pritom formirale sačuvano je veoma malo ili nimalo podataka. Uglavnom je zabilježeno tek postojanje kolekcija kod istaknutih pojedinaca, dok su zbirke u manjim sredinama nepoznatih sakupljača uglavnom u potpunosti nepoznate. U ovom radu istražuje se do danas nepoznata zbirka brončanih skulpturica koja je pripadala Solinjaninu Ivanu Grubiću, zvanom Jablan, a danas je dio Antičke zbirke u Muzeju povijesti umjetnosti u Beču (Kunsthistorisches Museum Wien, Antikensammlung).
After Felix Weil had endowed the Institut für Sozialforschung with the equivalent of 786 kilograms of refined gold in 1935, it seemed inconceivable that, in late 1938, its directors Friedrich Pollock ...and Max Horkheimer would declare a financial crisis and start cutting costs with little regard for the consequences. They tried to reduce the salaries of their staff, or even get rid of them, while at the same time securing additional funds for themselves. A month after transferring an extra $50,000 to an account at his exclusive disposal, Horkheimer let Walter Benjamin know that he was unable to provide him with the money for a steamliner ticket to New York, "aber meine Hände sind leider gebunden." These circumstances were not known to the participants in the so-called Merkur-debate of 1968, in which Theodor Adorno found himself accused of having willfully omitted documents showing Benjamin's Marxist inclinations when he published his friend's Briefe in 1966. While Hannah Arendt had criticized the Institut for not sufficiently supporting Benjamin, she had stopped short of ascribing them any role in Benjamin's suicide. However, the Frankfurter's financial incompetence matched their skill in controlling the narrative around this mismanagement, such that, to this day, Arendt continues to be criticized for wrongly accusing Horkheimer and Adorno. This article examines the circumstances that contributed to Benjamin's tragic death and the subsequent debates over potential wrongdoings.

Gekkotan lizards are widely distributed in tropical regions and extend into more northern regions in Asia and Europe. Unfortunately, gekkotans lack significant fossil record and many aspects of their ...evolutionary biology are still poorly understood. Our study provides the first information about occurrence of this group in the Czech Republic. The fossil material comes from the Lower Miocene sediments (MN 3) of the locality Merkur-North. All the gekkonid bones can be assigned to the family Sphaerodactylidae and represent a single taxon, Euleptes gallica. This taxon was previously known only from the French locality Montaigu (zone MN 2), and thus our study extends its stratigraphic and geographic range.
Ethics of Evil Mills, Jon; Naso, Ronald C

In today’s world, where every form of transgression enjoys a psychological motive and rational justification, psychoanalysis stands alone in its ability to uncover the hidden motives that inform ...individual and social collective behaviour. Both in theory and in practice, it bears witness to the impact of anonymity on the potential for perpetration, especially when others are experienced as faceless, disposable objects whose otherness is, at bottom, but a projection, displacement, and denial of our own interiority – in short, the evil within.
In keeping with this perspective, Ethics of Evil rejects facile rationalisations of violence; it also rejects the idea that evil, as a concept, is inscrutable or animated by demonic forces. Instead, it evaluates the moral framework in which evil is situated, providing a descriptive understanding of it as a plurality and a depth psychological perspective on the threat it poses for our well-being and ways of life. In so doing, it also fashions and articulates an ethical stance that recognises the intrinsic link between human freedom and the potential for evil. The contributors to this book argue that moralising evil is one of the most important agendas of our time.
This paper discusses Jung's idea of myth as a projection of the collective unconscious, suggesting that the term ‘projection’ separates human beings from nature, withdrawing nature's life into ...humanity. Jung's discovery of a realm independent of consciousness – in conversations with his soul in The Red Book, and in synchronicity, began a dialogue which finally brought him, through the Alchemical Mercurius, closer to the idea of a world‐soul.
Cet article discute l’idée de Jung du mythe en tant que projection de l’inconscient collectif, suggérant que le terme de ‘projection’ sépare les êtres humains de la nature, en enlevant sa vie à la nature pour la mettre dans l’humanité. La découverte de Jung d’un royaume indépendant de la conscience – dans les conversations avec son âme dans le Livre Rouge, et en synchronicité, fut le point de départ d’un dialogue qui l’amena finalement plus près, à travers le Mercure alchimique, de l’idée d’une âme du monde.
Dieser Artikel behandelt Jungs Idee des Mythos als einer Projektion des Kollektiven Unbewußten, was andeutet, daß der Begriff ‘Projektion’ den Menschen von der Natur trennt und das Leben der Natur in die Menschheit zurückzieht. Mit Jungs Entdeckung eines vom Bewußtsein unabhängigen Reiches – in Gesprächen mit seiner Seele im Roten Buch und in Synchronizität – begann ein Dialog, der ihn schließlich, durch den alchemistischen Mercurius, der Idee einer Weltseele näherbrachte.
: Questo lavoro discute l’idea di Jung del mito come proiezione dell’inconscio collettivo, suggerendo che il termine “proiezione” separa gli esseri umani dalla natura, segregando la vita naturale dentro l’umanità. La scoperta di Jung di un dominio indipendente dalla coscienza – nelle conversazioni con la sua anima nel Libro Rosso, e nella sincronicità, iniziò un dialogo che alla fine lo portò, attraverso il Mercurio alchemico, più vicino all’idea dell’anima del mondo.
В статье обсуждается идея Юнга о мифе как о проекции коллективного бессознательного. Предполагается, что термин «проекция» разделяет людей и природу, убирает природную жизнь в человека. Открытие Юнгом независимой от сознания области, которое произошло в его беседах со своей душой в Красной Книге и в синхронии, в конечном итоге с помощью Алхимического Меркурия подвело его к идее о мировой душе.
El presente ensayo presenta la idea de Jung sobre el mito como una proyección del inconsciente colectivo, sugiriendo que el término ‘proyección ‘separa a los seres humanos de la naturaleza, retirando la vida natural de la humanidad. El descubrimiento de Jung de una dimensión independiente de la conciencia – en conversación con su alma en el Libro Rojo, y en sincronicidad, comenzó un diálogo que finalmente, lo condujo, a través del Mercurius Alquímico, más cerca de la idea del alma del mundo.
我的荣格是谁?尽管时常矛盾,却不断前进的对荣格关于集体无意识观点的扩展,从“无意识的人性”到(通过神话及各类名目)对世界的灵魂
这篇文章讨论了荣格关于神话是集体无意识投射的观点,提出“投射”的概念把人类从自然中分离了出来,并把自然的生命从人性中撤离。荣格所发现的这个领域独立于意识,在他《红书》中所记载的与自我灵魂的对话中,以及在共时性中,他开始了一个对话,通过炼金术的墨丘利,这一对话最终使他更贴近世界灵魂的观念。
The locality of Akníkov 1 (Czech Republic, MN 3) has yielded the largest diversity of Dimylidae known from a single locality. Four species are recognised in the few dozen recovered fossils:
Dimylus
...aff.
paradoxus
,
Plesiodimylus
sp.,
Chainodus intercedens
and
Lacrimodon vandermeuleni
nov. gen., nov. sp. The high diversity supports the assumption of a humid palaeoenvironment for Akníkov 1.
