He wrote on most major areas of Buddhist practice and thought (Mahāyāna doctrine and the path, Tantric ritual and meditation).The text does not appear to survive in the original sanskrit. It was translated by the author’s Tibetan disciple Dpang-zho Gsal-ba-grags in Nalanda.=, and later revised by Dpang Lo-tsā-ba Blo-gros-brtan-pa (1276–1342). The passage chosen here is drawn from the final section of the lengthy first chapter of Munimatālaṁkāra, entitled the “appearance of the enlightened mind”. The chapter traces the course of the path from the initial cultivation of the aspiration to enlightenment through to the development of discernment, or wisdom. The analysis of the two truths is introduced in this context Wed, 01 Jan 2014 00:00:00 GMT http://hdl.handle.net/11089/35207 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/11089/35206 Esej o ironii filozoficznej Teodora Metochity Glinicka, Małgorzata This is a translation of Theodore Metochites’s essay concerning philosophical irony from the Hypomnematismoi kai semeioseis gnomikai (Annotations and gnomic notes), an excellent collection of 120 texts on history, literature and thinking, containing the most extensive commentary on Aristotelian philosophy of the late Byzantine period. The essay on philosophical irony – never translated in Poland – is a commentary on the Dialogues of Plato, which had an important influence on the Platonic renaissance of the 15th century. Metochites, growing up in the cultural center of Constantinople, was a prolific writer, leaving behind works of rhetoric, poems, a literary testament, a collection of philosophical texts and two works on astronomy Wed, 01 Jan 2014 00:00:00 GMT http://hdl.handle.net/11089/35206 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/11089/35204 Pojęcie społeczeństwa politycznego u Arystotelesa Berti, Enrico Wed, 01 Jan 2014 00:00:00 GMT http://hdl.handle.net/11089/35204 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/11089/35203 Rozważania Arystotelesa o naturze liczb (Metafzyka, XIII, 6–7) Nowakowski, Dawid The article analyses the part of Aristotle’s Metaphysics, which deals with the Plato’s idealistic theory of numbers. In the first six sections it describes and defines a few basic concepts of mathematics, in the seventh section it clarifies Aristotle’s opinion on the possible philosophical attitudes toward the nature of numbers. The next sections are devoted to logical analysis of Aristotle’s reasoning in refuting the Plato’s theory of numbers. The article ends with a short conclusion, where is indicated a possible connection between proposals of Aristotle and foundations of Kantian philosophy Wed, 01 Jan 2014 00:00:00 GMT http://hdl.handle.net/11089/35203 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z
