Vybrané kapitoly z epistemológie sú dielom viacročnej bádateľskej práce autora a tiež istým zúročením požiadaviek z pedagogickej praxe tohto predmetu. Kapitoly v tejto syntetizujúcej podobe publikované ešte neboli a som presvedčený, že práve v tejto podobe môžu nadobudnúť vyššiu hodnotu a väčší reálny dosah na našich študentov filozofie.

Jednotlivé kapitoly sú zamerané na problém poznania v súčasnosti, predovšetkým na problém kritiky metafyziky a na otázky kreovania postmetafyzického myslenia. Nie je žiadnou náhodou, že spoločným menovateľom predložených textov je F. Nietzsche, filozof, ktorý zásadným spôsobom ovplyvnil a naďalej ovplyvňuje terajšie filozofické diskusie a myšlienkové pohyby.

Kapitoly sú písané tak, aby viedli našich študentov či iných čitateľov k premýšľaniu, teda ku kritickému mysleniu, k osobnému rastu a k odbornej samostatnosti.

Do akej miery sa mi podarilo moje zámery a ciele naplniť, to nechávam na čitateľovi.

Filozofia je vo svojich dejinách popretkávaná niekoľkými princípmi, ktoré vnášajú do tohto druhu myslenia svetlo a poriadok, nech už ide o systémovú alebo nesystémovú podobu filozofovania. Každý z princípov predstavuje svojím spôsobom počiatok (ἀρχή) akéhokoľvek deduktívneho usudzovania, no nie všetky filozofické výpovede a koncepcie sú povinné postupovať rovnako, pretože nie všetky filozofické výpovede a koncepcie sú kalkulom. Vlastne, takáto podoba racionalistického filozofovania je v dejinách filozofie skutočne menšinová. No aj napriek svojmu menšinovému zastúpeniu vždy do určitej miery vzbudí pozornosť či už tak, že sa stane pilierom myslenia samotného a nájde si svoje trvalé miesto v jeho základoch, alebo sa stane nevyhnutnou oporou filozofického uvažovania. Princípov v dejinách filozofického myslenia v skutočnosti nie je mnoho. Stav je daný predovšetkým rôznorodou a v mnohých prípadoch neracionalistickou povahou filozofického uvažovania. V tejto súvislosti možno bez váhania na jednej strane spomenúť niektoré princípy logiky ako princíp identity, princíp negácie sporu, princíp vylúčenia tretieho a iné. Na druhej strane spomeniem dva osobitné princípy, ktoré s logikou v skutočnosti majú spoločné len to, že sú z nej odvodené. Prvý z nich je známy ako Occamova britva. Druhý dostal veľmi špecifické pomenovanie, ktoré však príliš veľa svetla do jeho pochopenia neprináša, skôr naopak – už samotné pomenovanie princípu vnáša do jeho pochopenia mnohé prekážky: principium rationis sufficientis alebo princíp dostatočného dôvodu. Po prvýkrát ho formuluje a aj na jeho základe buduje svoju metafyziku (kontingencie) G. W. Leibniz. O takmer tri storočia neskôr prejaví o tento princíp záujem Martin Heidegger. Nenápadnosť a takmer nevysvetliteľná jasnosť tohto princípu ho očarí natoľko, že mu venuje jeden prednáškový kurz v letnom semestri 1928 v Marburgu – kurz známy ako Metafyzické základy logiky podľa Leibniza (Die Metaphysische Anfangsgründe der Logik im Ausgang von Leibniz). Definitívne sa k nemu vyjadrí v zimnom semestri 1955-1956 vo Freiburgu v prednáške s názvom Der Satz vom Grund. Heideggerova deštrukcia princípu smeruje od principium rationis sufficientis k pojmu dôvod-základ (Grund). Zámerom, ktorý Heidegger touto cestou sleduje, je premyslenie otázky Bytia bez jestvujúcna, Bytia, ktoré prostredníctvom pojmu dôvod-základ (Grund) nadobúda zakladajúci charakter. Ukazuje sa však, že s definitívnou platnosťou nemožno ani v tomto prípade vyrieknuť ortieľ nad možnosťou myslenia Bytia bez jestvujúcna. Preto pokus o prekonanie metafyziky a nastolenie nového myslenia a jeho úlohy ostáva len pokusom.

It has been eleven years since the Department of Classical Philology of the Faculty of Arts of the University of Pavol Jozef Šafárik in Košice opened the gates of its imaginary colourful garden for the first time. At that time, the Hortus Graeco-Latinus Cassoviensis provided a space to present the results of work from all fields of the classical, Latin medieval, and Neo-Latin studies to colleagues from Slovakia. Five years later, the "garden" was enriched by colleagues from Bohemia and Moravia, and this time, at its fourth opening, colleagues from Greece and Germany also honoured it with their works. Variety remained its characteristic feature. Papers on ancient history, the linguistics of classical languages, ancient and medieval literature, ancient philosophy, the history of ancient medicine and Neo-Latin studies, as well as contributions on the teaching of classical languages, are presented in the proceedings. Moreover, the volume is published as an output of two seemingly disparate VEGA projects carried out at the department: No. 1/0109/21 Poemata de se ipso by Gregory of Nazianzus and No. 1/0255/22 Medicus poeta. Neo-Latin literature of medical authors associated with Slovakia. However, appearances are deceptive, because Gregor of Nazianzus, although a church father, also wrote poetry, his works contain numerous allusions to the medical milieu, and he had a brother who was a physician. His entire work is characterised by the variety of the themes he explores. References to the Bible are not uncommon in the works of medical poets. Just as the projects differ and simultaneously overlap with each other, the themes of the individual contributions also differ and overlap.

The publication „Helping professions and self-care from the perspective of psychology and social work“ includes research studies focused on self-care, and the positive and negative effects of helping among specific groups of helping professionals – psychologists and social workers. A number of Slovak as well as foreign authors contributed to the book of proceedings. The contributions are theoretical studies, research studies and case studies. The theoretical and research studies are focused on important issues of professional helping: self-care, compassion satisfaction, compassion fatigue, burnout, perceived stress, secondary traumatic stress, mindfulness, empathy, job satisfaction and turnover among psychologists and social workers. Research interest in the phenomena is especially important in the context of the mental health of helping professionals and in reducing the negative consequences of helping.

The main goal of the monograph "Moving Towards Cognitive Adaptation Studies: Adaptation as Play" was to orient current research in adaptation studies towards the empirically responsible cognitive branch of non-radical constructivism. This intention results from the rapid progressive differentiation of adaptation studies research, which has mainly manifested itself in this area in the last two decades. With the model of adaptation as play in a cognitive-scientific perspective, author provides the possibility of predicting the nature (also in a broader sense) of the experience of adaptation. Since the form of this experience significantly shapes the products of the adaptation process into their final form, the model of adaptation as play can be applied even in the interpretation of individual adaptations. In the monograph, the author synthesized the model of adaptation as play based on the knowledge of various disciplines. In the field of cognitive sciences, he saw help from the starting points of philosophy, linguistics, informatics, psychology, anthropology, biology and neuroscience – especially affective neuroscience, which also deals with the emotional dimension of the play. In the intersection with the essential interdisciplinary components of adaptation research, he also used the knowledge of classical and cognitive variations of literary science, film science (also theatrology) and media studies to a large extent. Consistent with other similar results of cognitive sciences, it turns out that even seemingly serious adaptations, like in many aspects of our culture, have a ludic base.

Pokus o konfrontáciu Gadamerovho učenia nielen s velikánmi gréckej filozofie, ale aj s Hegelom a Heideggerom nie je jednoduchá úloha. Celá Gadamerova historicko-filozofická tvorba je však najvýraznejšie spojená s týmito antickými mysliteľmi a s dvoma géniami nemeckého filozofického myslenia. Preto niet vyhnutia. Bez tejto konfrontácie by bolo celé moje úsilie v istom zmysle zbytočné. To, či a ako sa mi to podarí, je už iná otázka. Každý čitateľ si určite vytvorí svoj vlastný úsudok.
