Rivista di estetica 59\u00a0|\u00a02015<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n biodiversity<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n edited by Elena Casetta<\/strong><\/p>\n Open access<\/a><\/p>\n Description<\/p>\n The variety of the forms of life has been a subject of philosophical reflection at least since Plato, who in the\u00a0Statesman<\/em>\u00a0celebrated the diversity of the natural world as a mean to shed some light on the relationship between humans and other animals. The term \u201cbiodiversity\u201d, however, was coined only in 1985, gaining immediate acceptance, and coming to stand for more than a mere contraction of \u201cbiological diversity\u201d: if biological diversity is the target of awe and wonder, primarily aesthetic, biodiversity becomes instead something to be protected, loaded with ethical and political meanings. This issue of the \u201cRivista di estetica\u201d addresses what might be called \u201cthe philosophy of biodiversity\u201d, a reflection at the intersection of the philosophy of science, epistemology, aesthetics, ethics, and politics.<\/p>\n Authors<\/p>\n Elena Casetta,\u00a0Anouk Barberousse, Sophie Bary, Alessandro Minelli, Philippe Huneman, Patrick Blandin, Jorge Marques da Silva, Sue Spaid, Matteo Andreozzi.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Rivista di estetica 59\u00a0|\u00a02015 biodiversity edited by Elena Casetta Open access Description The variety of the forms of life has been a subject of philosophical reflection at least since Plato, who in the\u00a0Statesman\u00a0celebrated the diversity of the natural world as …<\/span> Continue reading →<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-93","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/biodecon.campus.ciencias.ulisboa.pt\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/93","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/biodecon.campus.ciencias.ulisboa.pt\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/biodecon.campus.ciencias.ulisboa.pt\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/biodecon.campus.ciencias.ulisboa.pt\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/biodecon.campus.ciencias.ulisboa.pt\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=93"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/biodecon.campus.ciencias.ulisboa.pt\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/93\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":150,"href":"https:\/\/biodecon.campus.ciencias.ulisboa.pt\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/93\/revisions\/150"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/biodecon.campus.ciencias.ulisboa.pt\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=93"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
