Metaphysics, together with ontology, constitutes one of the fields of fundamental research assumed by the centre. The direction concerns the research of the fundamental structures of reality and of thought: being, categoricity, modality and the relation between the given and the constructed.
Events from the archive
- Metaphysics and Ontology in Romanian Philosophy — national conference, 27 November 2015, within the centre’s series of national conferences (the edition is documented in the national conferences archive; the corresponding call for papers was published by the centre).
- The National Symposium “Epistemology and Cosmology” (9 November 2011) — a debate on the metaphysical questions of knowledge and of the cosmos (symposium page).
- The National Symposium “Mircea Florian” — dedicated to the work of an author whose philosophy is centred on the idea of recessivity as an ontological structure (symposium page).
Volumes
- Critică, Marginalitate, Cinism — although thematically interdisciplinary, the volume of the 2015 conference includes debates with ontological and ethical foundations (Volumes).
