Title: Book review : Claude Mangion, On the communicative turn in philosophy : exploring intersubjectivity, community and the ethics of dialogue Authors: Sangodkar, Siya Abstract: Traditionally, the philosophy of communication has been studied under the philosophy of language. Philosophers are now beginning to realize that communication is more than just language. Claude Mangion, in the present book, has attempted to investigate the extent to which communication has been able to resolve the problems that emerge in philosophical discourse. He attempts to accomplish this by examining the relationship between intersubjectivity, community and ethics of dialogue. [excerpt]

Title: Do-it-yourself Valletta ghost walk Authors: Hanson, Malcolm Abstract: I find ghosts incredibly attractive creatures. Cast aside the traditional chain-rattling "boo!" image and you are left with something tantalisingly seductive. The very idea that one might be visited in the night by an alluring sexy vamp (or, if you are female - a brawny, red-blooded Heathcliff) seems to me a very attractive proposition; after all, we are only human. They, of course, are something else entirely and need to be treated with great respect... and, perhaps, in some cases, great caution. The ghosts of Valletta - and of this ghost walk you will discover, are extremely tantalising and attractive creatures too (well, some of them are, anyway - there are others that may not quite fit that description). All have one thing in common - they are as real as you and I.

Title: L-apoloġija Abstract: Bnedmin kbar, nies ta' spirtu qaddis, għalliema u għorrief iżejnu lill-umanità b 'għemilhom, bi ħsibijiethom u bi kliemhom. Sokrates jasal u jsib postu fil-kumpanija ta' dawn permezz ta' leħen il-ħabib tiegħu Platun. Donnu li f'apoteosi ta' l-ironija (mill-grieg "eirein": jitħaddet, jitkellem) jagħżel lijerħi 'l ħaddieħorjitkellem għalih, eżattament il-maqlub ta' li jiġri f'din l-Apoloġija, din id-difiża li hu jagħmel tiegħu nnifsu bi kliemu stess. B 'hekk f'waqt wieħed Sokrates jitkellem u ma jitkellimx u jiskot, fis-sens tal-bniedem li, quddiem il-mewt, jidħol fis-skiet tiegħu nnifsu ... il-bniedem !'siktu. Ir-raġuni, f'Sokrates, issib is-skiet tant elokwenti tagħha. F' din l-Apoloġija Sokrates jixhed li hu l-qaddej t 'Alla u juri ċar u tond kifreħa r-rieda tiegħu tkun ir-rieda t'Alla. Imma fl-istess nifs huwajagħtina d-dehra tiegħu tal-ħajja tal-bnedmin u jinseġ fiha l-ħajt tad-deheb, id-daħq u l-umoriżmu li jnaddaf u jħoll il-qlub. Ħajtu, Sokrates. jużaha biex iħeġġeġ u jrawwem l-aqwa fil-bniedem u }irnexxilu b 'hekk jixħet is-sisien tas-soċjetà kif nafuha (madwar il-Mediterran u lil hemm minnu) dawn l-aħħar elfejn sena. Sokrates qatt ma jikkundanna, qatt ma jmaqdar. Meta joħodha, joħodha kontra l-injoranza u l-kupidità; qatt kontra l-bniedem. BI-Apoloġija, Platunjaqta 'ċ-ċavetta li tiftaħ il-bibien tat-tiġdid, b 'tali mod li nsibu l-istudju tax-xogħlijiet tiegħu fil-qalba ta' kull rinaxximent li seħħ kemm fid-dinja Għarbija u kemm fl-Ewropa s'issa.

Title: Introduction to logic Authors: Riolo, Vincent Abstract: Introduction to logic offers a grounded, step-by-step reconstruction of the basic elements of classical propositional logic. A constructive logic with a wider scope is hinted at but not developed further. Emphasis is placed on the objectives which can be attained by means of the linguistic objects being introduced; in this way, the roles of both the sender and the receiver of messages constructed out of these objects are taken into account.
