  • This article is a follow-up on the concept of philosopher/writer and its transformation in the Age of Enlightenment - 1. the dictionary meaning of the term 'philosopher/writer' and the origins of 'literary fields' of the Enlightenment era. In this article, we analyzed changes in the literary field in the late $17^{th}$ century after the expansion of the publishing market. We examined the conflict surrounding philosophers' identifying between modern and traditional philosophers. We have validated that the formation of new readers has made traditional philosophers more sensitive to the 'horizon of expectations' of readers. Some biographical works are also one of our concern. By the end of the $17^{th}$ century, philosophers and writers suddenly became objects of biographical works unlike in the past. Through our research, we found that readers have sought the arrival of a new hero, a great philosopher or a great writer, that will lead a new era, and due to this anticipation, it has led to the publication of biographical works. In this process, we have revealed conceptual changes about authors, writers, philosophers, and so on. In the next article, we will continue advanced discussion on the concept of philosopher/writer.

  • Medicine and philosophy were very closely related in antiquity. The Pre-Socratics were interested in physiological and pathological aspects of human body. Their interests of human body was a part of interests on nature. Plato and Aristotle were fond of proposing their philosophical arguments using medical analogy. Medicine and philosophy were regarded as two disciplines which play a similar role in human being. Ancient philosophers thought that medicine and philosophy were similar on the ground that while philosophy eliminates passion from human soul, medicine eliminates disease from human body. Here, they regarded the similarity of medicine and philosophy only in terms of analogy. More comprehensive and systematic relationship between medicine and philosophy is realized by Galen. He manifestly declared that "The Best Doctor is also a Philosopher", which is also the title of one of his treatise. In this treatise, Galen regarded philosophy is a discipline consisted of physics, logic, and ethics according to the view s of Stoics. As a result, a good doctor for Galen is one who is well versed in physics, logic, and ethics. Furthermore, He regarded Hippocrates as the ideal model of a doctor-philosopher.

  • 과학기술은 우리생활을 편하게 하지만 과학기술의 발달로 입는 환경오염은 갈수록 심각하며 개발된 기술을 악용햐는 사례가 늘고 있다. 과학기술을 사용하는 우리 모두가 올바른 판단을 할 수 있는 선한 사람이 되도록 노력해야 하는데 이렇게 인간을 선하게 만드는 것은 철학자의 몫이다. 그런 의미에서 과학과 철학은 함께 발전해야 한다고 생각한다.

  • 개최들의 개별화를 위한 대표적인 법칙으로 간주되고 있는 라이프니츠의 법칙은 철학에서만 아니라 수학이나 논리학과 같은 순수과학에서도 중요한 법칙으로 사용되고 있다. 그러나 최근에 들어서 라이프니츠의 법칙은 그 논리적 위상과 관련하여 심각한 논란의 대상이 되고 있다. 이러한 논란의 근본적 원인은 칸트나 블랙과 같은 철학자들에 의해 라이프니츠의 법칙이 적용되지 않을 기능성을 보이는 반례가 제시되었고, 많은 철학자들이 이에 동조한 데에서 찾을 수 있다. 라이프니츠의 법칙의 논리적 위상과 관계된 철학자들의 입장은 크게 두 가지로 구분된다. 첫 번째 입장은 블랙 등에 의해 제시된 예들을 라이프니츠의 법칙에 대한 정당한 반례로 간주하는 입장이고, 두 번째 입장은 이러한 예들은 리이프니츠의 법칙에 대한 반례로 간주될 수 없다는 입장이다. 두 번째 입장을 쥐이는 대표적 철학자는 헷킹이다. 헷킹은 시공간에 대한 인습주의에 입각하여 블랙 등에 의해 제시된 예는 완전한 가능성을 나타내는 것이 아니고 라이프니츠의 법칙은 가능세계에 대한 메타 원칙으로 간주되어야 한다고 주장하고 있다. 본고에서 필자는 리이프니츠의 법칙을 옹호하려는 헷킹의 시도는 성공적이지 못하고, 또한 블랙 등에 의해 제시된 예들은 라이프니츠의 법칙에 대안 정당한 반례로 간주되어야 한다는 입장을 개진하고 있다. 필자가 이러한 입장을 취하게 된 것은 헷킹의 입장은 논리적 기능성과 물리적 기능성 사이의 구별을 어렵게 한다는 문제점 이외에도 가능세계 의미론과 관련된 중요한 문제점들을 야기하고 있기 때문이다. 가능세계 의미론과 관련된 문제점은 이러한 시도는 가능세계 의미론에 입각한 양상명제들의 해석의 범위를 제한하게 만들고 De-Re 양상명제에 대한 해석을 위해 필수적인 헤세이티즘의 수용을 불가능하게 한다는 것이다.

An inquiry concerning early philosophy of G. Deleuze (초기 들뢰즈 철학에 관한 연구)

  • It is well known that Deleuze began his philosophical work from researching the biographies of many predecessors' such as D. Hume, Lucretius, I. Kant, B. Spinoza, F. W. Nietzsche, H. Bergson, and etc. Among them, especially Spinoza, Nietzsche, and Bergson constitute a foundation supporting the whole idea of Deleuze. He declared that the goal of his early biographical work is a theme converging the identity of two philosophers, Spinoza and Nietzsche, and it shows that these two philosophers had such a huge significance to Deleuze, at least by then. However, we may point out two issues here. The first is why Deleuze, who is recognized as a philosopher of 'difference', deals the identity. The other issue is, what kind of identity exists between the two philosophers, Spinoza and Nietzche. In a common sense, their ideas contradict to each other. Spinoza puts God at the center of his philosophical system, whereas Nietzsche declared 'God is dead'. Though Nietzsche expressed a concurrent opinion with Spinoza at first, it is well known that he turned his side against him soon after and criticized him sharply. There is a conflict at the core of this criticism concerning the existence or non-existence of God. Many think that Spinoza, however, cannot be free from the argument that his philosophy allows a possibility of atheism. Deleuze, who also called Spinoza an atheist, suggested a new viewpoint of the philosophy of Spinoza based on his attribution to the concept of 'power'. On the other hand, Deleuze reinterpreted Nietzsche, where he analyzed 'the will to power' in a totally inventive way. Likewise, the reciprocal communication of ideas connected by the concept of 'power' gives a foundation of identifying the two philosophers to Deleuze. In this paper, considering this reciprocal communication, I intent to reveal the foundation of identity of the two philosophers, Spinoza and Nietzsche, and as a result, investigate what the concept of identity means to Deleuze, the philosopher of difference. Furthermore, we will also take a look at how Deleuze presents a new perspective on the conflict on the existence of God of the two philosophers in the process of validating the identity.
