Tuning into Harmut Rosa's systematic romanticism
1Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Summary
This study traces Hartmut Rosa's intellectual journey, highlighting Charles Taylor's influence on his social theory. It explores Rosa's work on acceleration, resonance, and responsivity, advocating for critical theory dialogue.
Area of Science:
- Social Theory
- Philosophy
- Sociology
Background:
- Hartmut Rosa's intellectual development spans four distinct phases.
- His work addresses social acceleration, resonance, and responsivity.
- Charles Taylor's social philosophy is a consistent influence.
Purpose of the Study:
- To reconstruct the intellectual itinerary of Hartmut Rosa.
- To analyze the impact of Charles Taylor's philosophy on Rosa's work.
- To propose a renewed dialogue within critical theory.
Main Methods:
- Intellectual history analysis.
- Textual analysis of Rosa's publications and thesis.
- Philosophical and sociological interpretation.
Main Results:
- Charles Taylor's social philosophy significantly shaped Rosa's philosophical anthropology, societal theory, and moral sociology.
- A clear progression in Rosa's thought from social acceleration to resonance and responsivity is identified.
- The study identifies a consistent thread of Taylorian influence across Rosa's career.
Conclusions:
- A new rapprochement between critical theory generations is needed.
- Societal pathologies can be addressed without abandoning modernity's potential.
- Rosa's work offers a framework for understanding contemporary social challenges.

Sternberg's Triangular Theory of Love
39.6K
We typically love the people with whom we form relationships, but the type of love we have for our family, friends, and lovers differs. Robert Sternberg (1986) proposed that there are three components of love: intimacy, passion, and commitment. These three components form a triangle that defines multiple types of love: this is known as Sternberg’s triangular theory of love. Intimacy is the sharing of details and intimate thoughts and emotions. Passion is the physical attraction—the...

Resonance and Hybrid Structures
17.1K
According to the theory of resonance, if two or more Lewis structures with the same arrangement of atoms can be written for a molecule, ion, or radical, the actual distribution of electrons is an average of that shown by the various Lewis structures.
Resonance Structures and Resonance Hybrids
The Lewis structure of a nitrite anion (NO2−) may actually be drawn in two different ways, distinguished by the locations of the N–O and N=O bonds.

Radical Formation: Homolysis
3.6K
A bond is formed between two atoms by sharing two electrons. When this bond is broken by supplying sufficient energy, either two electrons can be taken up by one atom forming ions by the cleavage called heterolysis, or the two electrons are shared by two atoms, with one each creating radicals by the cleavage called homolysis.

Carl Rogers' Humanistic Perspective on Personality
1.2K
Carl Rogers, a key figure in humanistic psychology, believed that individuals possess an innate potential for growth and fulfillment. According to his model of personality, three significant components define an individual: the organism, the self, and conditions of worth.
The organism refers to an individual's inherent blueprint, which Rogers saw as innately positive and directed toward helping others, unlike Freud's view of the id as driven by base impulses. The self is a person's...
