Filosofia Digitale

The last twenty years have seen an increase in knowledge and an evolution of its branches so that the image of the arbor scientiarum is replaced rather by the open plurality of a series of luxuriant foliage - single and multiple according to the ways of referring to ever-changing objects. The forest of the sciences is opening up to the ocean of knowledge, which is advancing in an interdisciplinary manner. Today, more than ever, emergency of new paradigmas need for an overview of the development of the scientific disciplines, more in order to observe their boundaries, their lability, their permeability and to understand their overall direction, than to subject them to a single foundation. If all positions, be they historical, ontological, epistemological, computational are presented as systematic and hegemonic, are loosing. The book Digital Philosophy welcomes the hoped-for emergence of a change of perspective: a pragmatic-critical reflection on the digitisation of knowledge and the practices of knowledge representation. This book opens up different ways for philosophical research: abandoned the metaphysical throne, philosophy has rediscovered itself in the trivium. She has returned to the public square to reckon with the procedures of the digital and documentalist revolution underway, being able to dispose of a vast, and articulated, conceptual and methodological set with the aim, if not to understand, at least to define the procedures to renegotiate the conceptual boundaries of the new plural, multidisciplinary and multilingual reality.
