Vol. 14 No. 1 (2023)

Inquietude comes to toast the transition of a new moment with this number that, philosophically, takes us by the (mis)steps of the cultural phenomenon.

We start the trajectory with a Hegelian approach to consciousness that allows us to explore horizons perhaps not previously seen with the Japanese art: the work of Francisco Elton Martins de Souza and Matheus Tomaz Maia shows how this is effective in the alchemical game of truth of Fullmetal Alchemist.

After a contact with the symbolism of transmuted truth, nothing more encouraging than the reading track of Cassirer's Essay on man proposed by Franscisco Gustavo de Souza Flor, to confront human signs of culture and their vital particularities.

In this symbolic agonism, life becomes meaningless, with the risk of a language that no longer serves the communicative vitality: to this the ethics of Habermas' Discourse proposes a solution that Gabriel Andrade Coelho Moreira presents us in a very lively way, in an attempt to recover the world of life from a pathological rationality.

As in a pass not so much of magic, but philosophical reflection, Lana Helena da Silva dos Santos resumes the active undertaking of Hannah Arendt to regain consciousness for a political activity that does not intend to reduce itself to the mere contemplation of "magic passes," but of a transformation of forces that restructure the ways of cultivating and worshipping the world.

Finally, in this adventure through the swampy terrain of (un)conscious activity, Luiza Aparecida Bello Borges leads the person willing to explore these (mis)steps - with Inquietude - to an attempt to (re)establish values on the ethic-phenomenological way of Husserl and Max Scheler.

For the appreciation of a formative result of (human) culture, so far, Inquietude suggests the artifice of a generative AI capable of (re)combining symbols of an archetypal Alchemy of the cultural power of consciousness...

The editing.
