Descartes' epistolary legacy: diagnosis — "betrayal" of rationalism
The possibility of a new interpretation of Descartes is determined by his epistolary legacy and scientific texts. The author analyses Descartes' correspondence with Princess Elizabeth, in particular the concept of substantial union, which does not fit into the «conventional» paradigm of understanding Descartes as a dualist and mechanist. The article is partly based on the work of Daniel Garber. The author focuses on two aspects. Firstly, the refusal of interpretation of the mind-body interaction in terms of the law of conservation. Secondly, ontological characteristics are assigned to this interaction. These aspects, in the author's opinion, are the basis for postulation the virtue of Cartesian thinking. After all, it not only breaks with the rationalism of the time, realising its limits and dead ends, but also lays the foundations for the concept of corporeality developed later in the phenomenological tradition.
期刊介绍:
Sententiae is historico-philosophical open access journal. Journal created by Modern philosophy''s research group (Pascalian society). Founded in 2000. Published twice a year, in June and December. Our purpose is to foster the development of a wide gamut of contemporary approaches, active implementation of them into research practice, and establishment of high standards of teaching philosophy basing on the achievements of contemporary history of philosophy. Our key priority is to ensure the empirical substantiation of historico-philosophical conceptions, basing on the criteria of literality, exhaustivity, contextuality and taking into account the existing speculative interpretations. Jean-Luc Marion was the first to formulate this set of criteria in 1998 as the main features of contemporary researches of Descartes''s philosophy. We regard these principles as the methodological background of any substantiated research method in the history of philosophy. Publishing materials on all historico-philosophical topics, we pay special attention to researches in terminology, issues of philosophical translation and untranslatability, manuscript researches (including handwritten heritage of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy professors of ХVІІ–ХVІІІ century), and cover the development of large-scale projects in this area. We also publish new bilingual and commented Ukrainian translations of classical foreign philosophical texts. Among our priorities there is also a coverage of the history of philosophical thought in Ukraine and other Eastern European countries and its relations to the wider cultural context (theology, literature, natural sciences, political ideology etc). The content of each issue is distributed according to Genre Sections and Thematic Headings. Currently there are 10 Genre Sections.
