Conatus is the linchpin of Spinoza’s ethical system. This concept bridges Spinoza’s metaphysics of substance, his definitions of the affects, and his ethics proper. In this paper, I argue that conatus addresses a core problem in the Ethics: how to have ethics in a world of absolute necessity. I begin this paper by explaining conatus…

Conatus - Journal of Philosophy will publish a Special Issue in 2025 devoted to the topic of “Gender and Anthropology in the Ancient and Medieval Philosophical and Theological Traditions (5th cent. BCE-15th cent. CE)”. In the last six decades, gender studies have gained importance across various academic disciplines. This has resulted to the production of a prolific body of research on the experiences of women, historically relegated to the periphery of the study of pagan antiquity and Christianity. Recently, a fervent international discussion has ensued regarding gender as debated in the interface of these traditions. Within this framework, some scholars have begun to focus on various Christian and pagan thinkers, so that essentialist positions on sex and gender (both translating the Greek term «φύλον»), currently prevailing in public discourse, may be re-examined. This discussion has proved relevant to the debate about posthumanism (transcendence or extinction of humanity) and transhumanism (humanity’s transference to a superior level of being). Topics may include (but are not limited to) the following:• soul, body and their relation to personal identity,• the fine conceptual distinctions underlying the notion of «φύλον» qua sex (corporeally/biologically determined perspective) and qua gender (socially determined perspective),• the extent to which the cultural and philosoph...

LIRIAS1936470 beschrijving The starting point of my paper is the following question: how is it possible that one can interpret (and therefore institutionalise) social problems as educational ones. This presupposes that there is some dimension within education that is social, relational and public. A philosophical analysis of this dimension can thus contribute to a deeper understanding of the conference theme. In order to elucidate the intrinsic public character of education I would like to analyse the position Judith Butler’s has developed in her most recent publications concerning bodily experience and its ethical, political and educational implications. When she states that “the body has its invariably public dimension”, how are we to understand the specific meaning of this body and why is it precisely the human bodily incarnation that obligates us to take responsibility for others and for the community we belong to? The cornerstone of her argumentation is that the opacity constitutive of our individual identity forces us to take up public responsibility. We only have become who we are because others first addressed us, because we can only narrate our own life histories in terms that are not our own, etc. Butler demonstrates her point by referring to a great variety of experiences of “exposure”: the feeling of an irrecoverable passivity, of being exposed to an otherness in ourselves that singularises us. It is interesting to see th...
