 Santayana or Philosophy as a Way of Life

round table discussion

Jorge or George Santayana, the accidental American, established a cultural dialogue that remains strong between the coasts of the Atlantic Ocean. This bond continues to inspire and enlighten those that look to irony and reason as a way of life, dispelling fanaticism. Santayana lived against currents, marking his own path, trusting intuition and putting forward skepticism as way of life. The example he set for a model of living has a following both in Spain and in the Unites States and continues to attract more interest.

Death of Professor Irving Singer

IRVING SINGER, PROFESSOR EMERITUS OF PHILOSOPHY, DIES AT 89

Longtime member of the MIT philosophy community was a dedicated professor, prolific writer.

Irving Singer, a professor emeritus of philosophy at MIT, died Feb. 1 at age 89. Singer was an eminent philosopher whose academic career spanned 65 years — with more than half a century as a professor at MIT. 

Singer was the author of 21 books in the field of humanistic philosophy, focusing on topics such as the philosophy of love, the nature of creativity, moral issues, aesthetics, and philosophy in literature, music, and film. His works have been translated into Korean, Chinese, Japanese, and Spanish, among other languages.

The MIT Press recently honored Singer’s career by initiating “The Irving Singer Library,” which includes republication of his books including "The Nature of Love," volumes 1, 2, and 3, and "Meaning in Life," volumes 1, 2, and 3; "Cinematic Mythmaking: Philosophy in Film"; "Ingmar Bergman, Cinematic Philosopher: Reflections on his Creativity"; "Mozart and Beethoven: The Concept of Love in Their Operas"; and "Modes of Creativity: Philosophical Perspectives." Other books by Singer include "George Santayana, Literary Philosopher"; and "Santayana’s Aesthetics: A Critical Analysis." A manuscript in progress at the time of Singer’s death was titled “Creativity in the Brain.”

A three-day conference in 1991 focusing on Singer’s work generated a book titled "The Nature and Pursuit of Love: The Philosophy of Irving Singer," edited by David Goicoechea (Prometheus Books, 1995).


Samuel Jay Keyser, a professor emeritus of linguistics who had an office next door to Singer’s in MIT's Stata Center, remembered his colleague fondly: “We were good office friends, and I am so sorry to hear he has passed on. It is the end of an era.”

Singer retired from MIT in 2013, having served on the MIT faculty in the Department of Philosophy and Linguistics (and its forerunners) since 1958. Until age 85, he was still actively teaching. Singer enjoyed teaching immensely, appreciating it as integral to his process of developing ideas that would inform his writing projects. Several of Singer’s course lectures are viewable on MIT OpenCourseWare, on topics including “Philosophy in Film and Other Media”; “Feeling and Imagination in Art, Science, and Technology”; and “The Nature of Creativity.”

Timothy Madigan, an associate professor of philosophy at St. John Fisher College, recalled Singer’s influence on his work: “Irving was a role model to me, and a true exemplar of a man of wisdom. He will be greatly missed, but his works will continue to live on.”

FROM EUROPEAN SOCIETY FOR ANALYTIC PHILOSOPHY:

Death of Prof. Manuel Garrido Jimenez (1925-2015)
Manuel Garrido Jimenez sadly passed away in Madrid on January 8th, 2015.
Born in Granada in 1925, Manuel Garrido held the Chair of Logic and
Philosophy of Science at the University of Valencia (1962-1979), the
Autonoma University of Madrid (1979-1983) and the Complutense University
of Madrid (1983-1990).  From the 1960s onwards he played a key role in the
introduction of such disciplines as Symbolic Logic, Philosophy of Science
and Philosophy of Language into Spanish universities.  In 1971, he founded
the Philosophy journal Teorema, which brought to Spain the topics,
concepts and methods of Analytic Philosophy, as José Ortega y Gasset had
done with Phenomenology four decades earlier.  Prof. Garrido was a
distinguished specialist in the philosophy of Miguel de Unamuno and José
Ortega, and in 1997 as a result of his ongoing concern for the vitality of
Spanish philosophy,  he promoted the publication of Limbo: An
International Bulletin for the Study of Santayana, and also fostered the
publication in Spain of numerous hitherto forgotten works by the
American-Spanish philosopher George Santayana.


 
Muerte del Prof. Manuel Garrido Jiménez (1925-2015)
Con gran pesar, comunicamos el fallecimiento en Madrid el 08.01.2015 del
ProfesorManuel Garrido Jiménez. El profesor Manuel Garrido (Granada 1925),
fue catedrático de Lógica y Filosofía de la Ciencia de las Universidades
de Valencia (1962-1979), Autónoma de Madrid (1979-1983) y Complutense de
Madrid (1983-1990). A él se debe en gran medida la introducción en España,
a partir de la década de los 60 del pasado siglo, de los estudios de
lógica simbólica, filosofía de la ciencia y filosofía del lenguaje. En
1971 fundó la revista Teorema que, de modo un tanto similar a como Ortega
había hecho cuatro décadas antes con la fenomenología o la filosofía de la
vida, comenzó a implantar en la filosofía española los temas, conceptos y
métodos de la denominada filosofía analítica. El profesor Garrido,
profundo conocedor de la filosofía de Unamuno y Ortega, y siempre
efectivamente preocupado por la buena salud de la filosofía española,
promovió desde 1997 la aparición de Limbo, Boletín Internacional de
estudios sobre Santayana y fomentó la publicación en España de numerosas
obras hasta entonces olvidadas del filósofo anglo-americano-español.

DE LA FILOSOFÍA ANALÍTICA

Apreciados colegas: 

Lamentamos comunicar la triste noticia del fallecimiento de 
Manuel Garrido Jiménez (Granada-1925) el pasado 8 de enero en Madrid.  
A los muchos méritos de una dilatada e infatigable trayectoria académica y cultural, se 
suma el de haber sido el principal referente de los estudios sobre Santayana en el 
panorama español en las últimas décadas. El profesor Manuel Garrido no sólo dedicó 
reflexiones y escritos a la obra de Santayana, sino que impulsó una labor editorial sin 
precedentes en torno a su pensamiento, que todavía continúa, y que entre todos 
debemos proseguir. 
Descanse en paz

Dear Colleagues, 
We regret to announce the sad news of the death of
Manuel Garrido Jiménez (Granada, 1925) last January 8th in Madrid.
To the many merits of a long and tireless academic career and broad cultural experience,
we would like to add his having been the main scholarly reference for the studies on 
Santayana in
the Spanish speaking world in recent decades. Not only did Professor Manuel Garrido 
devote
reflections and writings on the work of Santayana, but he was also the impulse behind an 
unprecedented body of seminal contributions on his thought, which we must jointly 
continue and keep alive.
May he rest in peace,

José Beltrán and Daniel Moreno

FOTOS TOMADAS POR INMACULADA YRUELA (11/07/2014)

La famosa cita de Santayana sigue colocada en el campo de concentración de Auschwitz, en el pabellón cuatro, justo donde comienza la visita 

(fotos tomadas por Carlos Moreno Yruela, 16/04/2014)

 

Resulta que la cita exacta es:/But Santayana really wrote:

"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it" 

(Reason in Common Sense, p. 284).

Y el contexto de la cita es:/The whole quote reads:

"Progress, far from consisting in change, depends on retentiveness. When change is absolute there remains no being to improve and no direction is set for possible improvement: and when experience is not retained, as among savages, infancy is perpetual. Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it. In the first stage of life the mind is frivolous and easily distracted; it misses progress by failing in consecutiveness and persistence. This is the condition of children and barbarians, in whom instinct has learned nothing from experience".
