Although his best-known work today is the utopian text La citta del Sole (The City of the Sun), his thought was extremely complex and engaged with all fields of learning. The fundamental core of his thinking, which will be examined in this article, was concerned with the philosophy of nature (what would nowadays be called science), magic, political theory and natural religion.; First published Wed Aug 31, 2005; substantive revision Thu Apr 17, 2025; The full text can be accessed from the following link: https://plato.stanford.edu/archives/sum2025/entries/campanella/ Description: The full text can be accessed from the following link: https://plato.stanford.edu/archives/sum2025/entries/campanella/ Wed, 01 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT /library/oar/handle/123456789/140256 2025-01-01T00:00:00Z On the communicative turn in philosophy : exploring intersubjectivity, community and the ethics of dialogue /library/oar/handle/123456789/140213 Title: On the communicative turn in philosophy : exploring intersubjectivity, community and the ethics of dialogue Authors: Mangion, Claude Abstract: Beyond language and pragmatics, this is an argument for communication as a philosophical force in its own right. Philosophy has long grappled with questions of meaning and human connection, yet communication itself remains an underexplored concept in the field. Claude Mangion shifts the focus by examining how communication has shaped debates on intersubjectivity and ethics. By tracing its role across key philosophical discussions, Mangion offers a new outlook on how communicative exchanges inform our understanding of self and society. Accessible and rigorously argued, it bridges the gap between philosophy and communication theory, making it a useful reference for students and scholars alike. A compelling argument for thinking of communication as a philosophical practice, whether you're exploring community, the ethics of dialogue, or the foundations of intersubjectivity.

This article examines the paradoxical nature of Campanella's solitude, demonstrating how he transformed isolation into a powerful tool for philosophical inquiry and literary creation. The discussion situations his introspective engagement with solitude within the context of his imprisonment, analysing how he reconciled physical confinement with interior freedom. The article shows how, in Campanella' s view, the truly wise person channels solitude -whether: voluntary or forced into creative action as an affirmation of liberty. Additionally, solitude is examined in relation to the communitarian life depicted in The City of the Sun. Through analysis of his poetry, the article illuminates the dynamism of the solitary soul, with particular attention to themes of otherness and cognitive alienation. Autobiographical and philosophical perspectives are integrated to present a complex yet coherent portrait of Campanella' s experience and account of solitude.
