181. Zur Nähe von Denken und Dichten beim frühen Heidegger : Eine SpurensucheHolger Zaborowski, 2022, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: On Proximity of Thinking and Poetizing in Early Heidegger. A Search for Traces
The paper discusses the question of the role of the relationship between thinking and poetizing, which is of immense importance for Heidegger’s late work, in his early hermeneutics of facticity. Heidegger’s early thinking is denoted with the search for the unconditionality of factical life in its historicity that cannot be comprehended neither under the conditions of a worldview nor of a strict science in Husserl’s sense. In his search, he continually encounters the realms of art and poetry, which he experiences as fundamental points of orientation. Although Heidegger does not expressly reflect upon them, such experiences of the proximity of thinking and poetizing did leave traces in his lectures.

182. Martin Heidegger und Georg Trakl : Die andere Zwiesprache zwischen Denken und DichtenAlfred Denker, 2022, strokovni članek Povzetek: Martin Heidegger and Georg Trakl. The Other Conversation between Thinking and Poetizing
In the paper, I develop some thoughts on the relationship between thinking and poetizing on the basis of Heidegger’s understanding of Georg Trakl’s poetry. I attempt to appropriately illuminate Heidegger’s interpretation in two steps: first through a discussion of Trakl’s poem “Ein Winterabend” (“A Winter Evening”) and subsequently through a contemplation on Trakl’s “Nachtgesang” (“nightly song”). The poet sings and the thinker can only contemplate upon his poetry. Of central importance are the question about the calling of the poet, whereby he calls being forth, and about the human mortality. Where can hope still be found in an era of the gods who have fled?

183. The Eternal (Re)Turn : Heidegger and the “Absolutes Getragensein” of MythJafe Arnold, 2022, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: This article aims to initiate the retrieval of Martin Heidegger’s thinking on myth. Beginning with a reflection on the dilemmas and precedents of approaching myth, this paper turns to an extensive review of Heidegger’s major, explicit treatments of mythology, the philosophy of myth, and mythos, ranging from the “mythical Dasein” of Being and Time and his review of Ernst Cassirer’s Mythical Thought to the implicated hermeneutics of mythos in Heidegger’s later ancient Greek lectures. On the basis of such a panoramic excavation with interspersed commentary, it is argued that Heidegger not only increasingly intimated a particular significance for the (re)consideration of myth, but ultimately approached myth in no less than the light of the disclosure of Being. Thus, this article lays the preliminary groundwork to serve further inquiry into myth per/in Heidegger. Ključne besede: E. Cassirer, M.

184. On Home (das Heim) and the Uncanny (das Unheimliche) in HeideggerMateja Kurir-Borovčić, 2022, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: The paper aims to argue that the question of home (das Heim) is one of the crucial elements of Martin Heidegger’s philosophy, which has been tackled by the German philosopher throughout his lifework in close connection to its opposition, namely the uncanny (das Unheimliche). The paper discusses the different understandings of home in Heidegger’s philosophy starting from the seminal works, such as Being and Time (1927) and Introduction to Metaphysics (1935), as well as Hölderlin’s Hymn “The Ister” (1942) and “Letter on Humanism” (1946) including “Building Dwelling Thinking” (1951). In his argumentation on the topic from 1935 onwards, Heidegger developed the question of home within the hermeneutical analysis of Sophocles’s Antigone, specifically the first verse of the famous choral song and the term δεινόν. In the conclusion, the standpoints of Jacques Derrida and David Farrell Krell on the subject are confronted, in order to discuss the paradoxical structure of the topic of home in Heidegger’s philosophy and, more generally, within philosophy of architecture.

185. The Gadamer–Habermas Debate through Mahabharata’s Women : Intersectional Feminist Engagements with Tradition and CritiqueKanchana Mahadevan, 2022, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: Despite their affinities in criticizing the Cartesian subject, contextualizing texts, and upholding dialogue as integral to interpretation, there are differences between the hermeneutic projects of Gadamer and Habermas. While Gadamer emphasizes real dialogue and continuity with tradition, Habermas highlights ideal communication and critical distance. With regard to the underexplored feminist intervention in their debate, it can be said that there are greater affinities between feminist thought and Gadamer arising from their commitment to historically situated thought. But the vantage position of tradition in Gadamer has generated its set of feminist apprehensions. The paper scrutinizes the consequences of intervening in the Gadamer–Habermas debate on the hermeneutics of tradition from a feminist perspective. Analyzing women characters in the Indian epic Mahabharata, it argues that the intersectionality between their gendered identity and varied social locations of class and caste leads to diverse feminist perspectives. In conclusion, the paper ponders over whether they are all equally critical and the extent to which they can be reconciled.

186. “Molt greignour senefiance" : The Role of Interpreters in The Quest of the Holy GrailAlenka Koželj, 2022, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: In the 13th-century French romance The Quest of the Holy Grail various interpreters appear, who—through Christian hermeneutics—explain to the knights of the quest their dreams, visions, prophecies, etc. The present article discusses the question of the source of authority of the interpreters, and analyzes in the text itself the foundations of such an authority. One of the most important starting points is the presupposition that the procedures of biblical exegesis influenced the romance and the image of the interpreter.

187. Hamlet and the Philosophical Interpretation of LiteratureWilliam Franke, 2022, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: The huge tradition of philosophical readings of Hamlet is focused here on the theme of unknowing as crucial to Shakespeare’s epistemology. In contrast with the rising paradigm of experimental science, which Hamlet and fellow student Horatio bring into the play and which informs even the method employed for proving the guilt of the king, Hamlet dramatizes the advent of a new model of unknowing knowing by faith in “providence.” This constitutes a transformation of an older paradigm of prophetic knowledge by revelation, which comes to Hamlet in the form of the ghost of his father, a figure arousing doubt rather than certainty, and hesitation rather than action. With Hamlet’s blind trust in what he calls “providence,” the metaphysical order is no longer an object of knowledge, and yet it can ground belief and can still guide a kind of action that proves finally to be efficacious, even if tragic. Philosophical readings by Cutrofello, Critchley, Pascucci, Lukacher, and others are shown to line up with this non-objective kind of knowing, or more exactly unknowing, which nevertheless renews a kind of prophetic dimension of revelation in poetic language.

188. Tolerance in Utopian DiscourseMonika Brzóstowicz-Klajn, 2022, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: In this article, the problem of tolerance is discussed with regard to some of the most important utopias in the European tradition, namely by Thomas More, Tommaso Campanella, and Francis Bacon. This allows us to show these works from the point of view of hidden paradoxes. Utopian discource, on the one hand, creates models of static, unchangeable, more or less homogeneous societies that remain separated from the world. On the other hand, tolerance means an attitude of openness towards diversity and, thus, towards dialogue as well as the possibility of change. Nevertheless, tolerance within utopias appeares under certain conditions. The article attempts to show how it is captured in particular utopian works and what additional meanings it reveals. The problem of tolerance can be a criterium for criticizing the utopian projects. This is the case with the twentieth-century concept of an open society by Karl Popper and with critical statements about it made by Leszek Kołakowski and Ryszard Legutko.

189. The Interweaving of Life and Text : Authorial Inscription and Readerly Self-Understanding Exemplified in Les Fleurs du malJulio Jensen, 2022, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: The present article attempts to make explicit the existential dimension of a canonical literary text: Baudelaire’s The Flowers of Evil. This work is chosen because it transmits a series of disturbing existential assertions; that is, it is used, in the present context, to investigate Gadamer’s thesis of the reader achieving a new self-understanding through the text. By taking both the author’s as well as the reader’s positions into account in the interpretation, the intention is furthermore to explore the dialogical situation that Gadamer highlights in the understanding process. In order to achieve this, focus is put on the notion of subjectivity in the context of Romanticism and Kierkegaard’s existential philosophy. The contribution is structured as follows: first, an overview is provided with respect to the development of the notion of subjectivity from Kant to Kierkegaard. After this, the existential aspects of Les Fleurs du mal are analyzed.

190. Between In-Vocation and Pro-Vocation : A Hermeneutics of the Poetic PrayerMałgorzata Hołda, 2022, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: This article investigates the phenomenon of poetic prayer as one that happens in the liminal space between the in-vocation of a close relationship with God and the provocation of versatile responses to God’s presence. The hermeneutic in-between of an experience of God—intimate, ecstatic, and absolutizing, but also unsettling, doubting, and desperate—engenders a genuine possibility to investigate the less obvious aspects of poetry as prayer, and to delve deeper into its complexities and subtleties. The analyzed poems by G. M. Hopkins, T. S. Eliot, and R. M. Rilke disclose the inner world of a human being who yearns for God, but also has the courage to question and listen to an inner voice that torments and tears asunder. A hermeneutic reading of poetry as prayer invites us to acknowledge that an authentic and close relationship with God goes beyond an equivocal and facile response and entails what is sidelined, destabilizing, or even threatening to the safe self. The hermeneutic examination of poetic prayer also inspires us to think of the human body as a legitimate and meaningful site of the encounter between the human and the divine.
