(Original title: Why Did Theognis Not Leave Respect and Retribution in His “Hope Elegy”?)
Filozofia, 78 (2023), 4, 245 - 258.Abstract
The aim of the essay is to give a detailed analysis of Theogins’ so-called Hope Elegy (ll. 1135 – 1150) which was considered an earlier fusion of Hesiod’s story of Pandora and the Myth of the races.

(Original title: Beyond Concept: Derrida and Levinas on Metaphor)
Filozofia, 78 (2023), 4, 296 - 305.Abstract

Both authors agree that metaphor is connected to the realm of “beyond concept” but Levinas identifies the metaphor, in Carnets de Captivité, with monotheistic divinity. Derrida does not. The… Read more
