More emphasis must be placed on the quality and quantity of philosophical education and its application within the framework of \"workmanship philosophy,\" given the available tools for artistic expression. In expressions instruction, several tactics and approaches should be utilized, and students should be capable of analyzing and comprehending works of art using a variety of approaches. Is it required to utilize philosophical terminology in the illustration of handicraft philosophy? Is it feasible, on the other hand, that philosophical terminology provides a vulnerability for these problems to be examined and multiple answers to be found? Nonetheless, we must be interested in Plato's discourse and the significance of Aristotle's poetics to create even more appealing statements. Instead of emphasizing a complete education in philosophy, art students must learn and comprehend the properties of knowledge that form the foundation of philosophy. This assists in determining the placement and significance of philosophy in speech.\u0000Based on three contextual studies employing technology philosophy hypotheses and methodologies in a planning setting, we will explain how these businesses profited from a more reflective viewpoint.

{"title":"Writing and Expression: Philosophical Reflections on Art Prompted by Dewey's View of Expression","authors":"Aoran Cui","doi":"10.24204/ejpr.2021.3840","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.24204/ejpr.2021.3840","url":null,"abstract":"In the present study, the emphasis is on Dewey's explanation of experience. Three dimensions, namely Art as Experiences, Psychology, and Democracy & Education, are chosen for this purpose. As an individual in-world experience, the actual world is composed of vibrant, rich experiences. While living is expansive and communal, there is a clear distinction between activity, sensation, and consciousness that permits study and choice. On the other hand, consideration implies a more solitary and abstracted knowledge of the world, with a more significant separation between actions, emotions, and perception. This distinction facilitates a more transparent comprehension of the scope of training. It avoids the traps of retrograde tendencies in the concept of engagement and facilitates the incorporation of imagining into the sphere of involvement.\u0000The traditional adult education theory is the antecedent of experiential learning. The fundamental illustration of the system is the four-step experiential learning model developed by David Kolb. Kolb says in his book \"Experiential Learning\" that this system was created by John Dewey, Kurt Lewin, and Jean Piaget. This article outlines Kolb's approach to constructing models of experiential learning. It focuses on how Kolb presents and implements the John Dewey-developed Ruwinian tradition of activity research to test his concept. Kolb appears to have condensed a corrupt and one-sided technique into a broad learning model, primarily in response to the conference of critics regarding the preparation of Tbunch. Contrast Dewey's notion of reflexive perception and activity with Korbu's interpretation of John Dewey's ideas. Kolb misinterprets Dewey's theory and concludes that the concept of quick and substantial experience in the experiential learning approach is problematic from an epidemiological standpoint. This article uses a hypothesis-based method to address two fundamental difficulties in adult education: experiential learning and the diversion, development, and application of ideas.\u0000 ","PeriodicalId":43251,"journal":{"name":"European Journal for Philosophy of Religion","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41513679","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, the modal collapse argument against divine simplicity has garnered various responses from proponents of divine simplicity. Some even claiming that the modal collapse argument is invalid. It is our contention that these responses have either misunderstood or misstated the argument, and have thus missed the force of the objection. Our main aim is to clarify what the modal collapse argument in fact says, and explain why the recent responses do not succeed. In order to argue our case, we will proceed in several steps. First, we aim to systematically articulate the doctrine of divine simplicity. Second, articulate the Christian conviction that God is free to create any feasible world or no world at all. Third, argue that divine simplicity suffers a modal collapse and thus undermines God's freedom. Fourth, respond to potential objections to modal collapse. Fifth, we offer some concluding remarks.","PeriodicalId":43251,"journal":{"name":"European Journal for Philosophy of Religion","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44941437","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I argue that while Krause was correct in viewing the mystical panentheistic doctrine of Vedānta as a precursor to his own philosophy, he was also frequently misled by unreliable translations and secondary texts. Krause, I suggest, was mistaken in characterizing the Hindu practice of image worship as “polytheism” and “idolatry,” and I contend, from a Vedāntic standpoint, that Krause’s denial of the divinity of Jesus is inconsistent with his own panentheistic metaphysics.","PeriodicalId":43251,"journal":{"name":"European Journal for Philosophy of Religion","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46300738","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Besides making systematic use of Venn-diagrams long before Venn, Krause — once more taking his inspiration from Leibniz — propounded what appears to be the first completely symbolic systematic representation of logical forms, strongly suggestive of the powerful symbolic languages that have become the mainstay of logic since the beginning of the 20th century. However, Krause’s limits in logic are also clearly visible: Krause’s method in logic is, in the main, not axiomatic; it is combinatorial (in other words, it consists in systematically producing finite lists of logical laws, following some organizational principle). More importantly, Krause remained entirely within the confines of traditional syllogistics (his flirt with “quantification of the predicate” notwithstanding), neglecting propositional logic and, of course, first-order relational terms.","PeriodicalId":43251,"journal":{"name":"European Journal for Philosophy of Religion","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47195011","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, some contest that there are some instances in which there is no greater good, while in other cases good and evil have been distributed unjustly. I intend, in this paper, to show that if God compensates the harms of evil in the afterlife, any sort of good is enough to resolve the problem of evil; even if the good is not greater than the evil nor distributed appropriately. To attain this end, I have divided the theory of compensation into a weak and a more effective account. The weak account alleges that the goodness of evils is merely based upon their compensation in the afterlife. I have proposed, in this article, a new, strong account of this theory, which considers both primary goods of evils and afterlife compensation as combined elements that can justify evils. After distinguishing the weak and strong versions of compensation, the idea is explained, and the advantages of the theory are pointed out. Finally, there are two chief objections raised against the validity of this theory, both have been mentioned and answered in this paper.","PeriodicalId":43251,"journal":{"name":"European Journal for Philosophy of Religion","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43682672","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
