Abstract
The youthful writings of Albert Lautman are examined, in particular the Rapport Bouglé of 1935, where the major conceptual nucleus of his subsequent research path aimed at entering 'inside' the contents of the sciences are already identified; it is no coincidence that, from the beginning, the philosophical effort has been directed to understand on the one hand the singularity of mathematics and on the other, to clarify 'les enjeux' of the close connection between mathematics and physics, 'l'unité physico-mathématique'. And all this finds its reasons in Lautman's having been a faithful interpreter of Hermann Weyl and of a certain Hilbert; and developing some of their points has allowed him to give an autonomous contribution to the philosophie mathématique, a chapter of epistemological thought produced in the French-speaking area, unique in its kind and still little known.

The article is an attempt to establish and analyze concrete historical interrelation between the “paradigm shift” in the Western philosophy during and after the First World War, on one hand, and Mikhail Bakhtin’s early philosophical project around the 1920s, on the other. This interrelation was constituted not so much...
Abstract:In this essay, I limn the bones (with some sinews as well) of a new approach to the theorization of the particular mode of responding to Scripture known as midrash between c. the first and seventh centuries AD. The fundamental structure of the argument is that our particular way of understanding “interpretatio...
In 2020, Daniele Molinini published a paper outlining two types of mathematical objectivity. One could say that with this paper Molinini not only separated two mathematical concepts in terms of terminology and content, but also contrasted two mathematical-philosophical contexts, the traditional-idealistic and the moder...
The ontological proof of the existence of God was formulated by Anselm of Canterbury in the 11th century and remains controversial throughout the history of philosophy. In the 20th century, philosophers began to turn to him especially often, which is associated with the active development of scientific thought. Anselm'...

This paper examines the fundamentally different responses of Edmund Husserl and Gottlob Frege to the epistemological problem posed by imaginary entities in mathematics, including negative, irrational, complex, and transfinite numbers. It argues that their divergent approaches to the justification of symbolic procedures...
