LADISLAV HEJDÁNEK ARCHIVES | Cardfile

Here you will find a digitized image of Hejdánek's original filing cabinet. Its total volume is many thousand tickets. We publish them in parts as we handle them. At the moment we have worked out what prof. Hejdánek himself developed electronically. However, much work remains on paper cards. In addition to Hejdánek's extracts from reading, the filing cabinet also includes his own thought work from recent years, which cannot be found elsewhere.


Protivenství | Resistence

Lucius Annaeus Seneca (-5 - +65)
Epistula LXXVIII.
Toto contra ille pugnet animo; vincetur, si cesserit, vincet, si se contra dolorem suum intenderit. Nunc hoc plerique faciunt, adtrahunt in se ruinam, cui obstandum est. Istud quod premit, quod inpendet, quod urget, si subducere te coeperis, sequetur et gravius incumbet; si contra steteris et obniti volueris, repelletur. …
[Let such a man fight against them with all his might: if he once gives way, he will be vanquished; but if he strives against his sufferings, he will conquer. As it is, however, what most men do is to drag down upon their own heads a falling ruin which they ought to try to support. If you begin to withdraw your support from that which thrusts toward you and totters and is ready to plunge, it will follow you and lean more heavily upon you; but if you hold your ground and make up your mind to push against it, it will be forced back. …]

Contingentia rerum | Kontingence

Duns Scotus (?1266-1308)
[Quaestio 5]Utrum cum scientia Dei stet contigentia rerum
15 Iuxta hoc quinto quaeritur utrum cum scientia Dei stet contingetia rerum.
Quod non, videtur: Sequitur ´Deus scit a fore, igitur a erit´. Antecedens verum necesasarium, igitur consequens. Consenquentia patet, quia oppositum consequentis non stat cum antecedente.16 Praeterea, omne scitum a Deo, necessario erit; sed a fore est scitum a Deo; igitur a necessario erit. Consequentia patet, quia minor est de inesse simpliciter, et ex tali minore cum maiore de necessario, sequitur conclusio de necessario.
17 Sed contrarium omnium istorum2 sribitur ad Hebr. 4: Omnia nuda sunt oculis eius etc.
(De scientia Dei respectu contingentium, in: 8387, Opera Omnia vol. XVII, Lectura I., …. , p. 484.)
