Freedom and personal responsibility, and, more importantly, their opposites, the desire to escape from freedom and personal responsibility, are, in many respects, the hallmarks of existentialism, and this is surely true of French existentialism in virtually all of its manifestations. In The Fall, the hyper-reflective Jean-Baptiste Clamence says that “freedom is not a reward or a decoration that is celebrated with champagne . . . [but] it’s a chore, on the contrary, and a long distance race, quite solitary and very exhausting”.
David Sherman, Camus

ATEİZM
sizin inandiklariniza inanmayan... ama baska bir suru inanclari ve erdemleri olanlar... İnanıyorum’un tersi inanmıyorum-> dinlerin ortaya çıkmasından bu güne dek süregelen tartışma
insan kendi varoluşuna bşr kutsiyet affetmesi, düşüncenin ve beynin gelişmesi ve dinlerin orataya çıkışı… Burada kronolojik bir sıra izlemeyeceğim ya da seri halinde bşr yazı da yazmayacağım Sadece bir kaç olguyu ortaya atacağım…
evrenin varolmasının ilk nedeni tanrı ya da ilahi bir güç mü? nihai amaç, akıllı!! ve ahlaklı!! bir yaratık olan insan, tanrının eserimi? yoksa evrimsel seleksiyon şeklinde tesadüflerin eserimi? Ölümden sonra bşr hayatın varlığı inancı ? gibi belli bazı konularda diyalektik bir tartışma…
hemen hemen tüm felsefe ekolleri ve öğretileri gibi ateizm'in kökleri de eski yunan'a uzanır. maddeci yapı belirten çeşitli felsefe okullarının bağlıları, ontolojik yorumları sonucunda ateist bir inanç sergilemişlerdir. "gölge etme başka ihsan istemem" sözüyle yaygın bir ünü bulunan diyojen bunlardan biri ve felsefe tarihinde kâfir diye nitelenen ilk kimsedir. atom kuramcısı demokrit, onun izleyicisi leocippus, sofist'lerden gorgias ve protegoras, kendi adıyla anılan ekolün kurucusu epikür, öne sürdükleri materyalist görüşler bağlamında birer ateist olarak göze çarparlar. rönesans'tan sonra batı'da varlığını hissettiren din-dışı eğilimler ve özellikle de evrenin, doğanın ve insanın, insan toplumunun dinden bütünüyle soyutlanarak yorumlanması sonucu ortaya çıkan görüşler, ateist tutumlara büyük katkılarda bulunmuş, onlara bolca kullanabilecekleri veriler sağlamıştır. nitekim, dinden ve törelerden bağımsız bir siyasetin oluşturulması savını öne süren makyavel, ateizm'i bu alana sokarken; birer ateist olmadıkları hâlde dekart, david hume ve kant gibi kimselerin akılı dinden bağımsız kılma çabaları ve bu doğrultuda öne sürdükleri düşünceler çağdaş ateizm'e tutanaklar hazırlamış oldu. pozitivist yorumlarla oluşturulan bilimsel kuramlar ve evrene yönelik rasyonalist bakış açılarının oluşturduğu ortam, feuerbach'ın öne süreceği düşünceler için çok elverişliydi. xix. yüzyılın en önemli ve sonraki dönemler bakımından da en etkili ateisti olan bu düşünür, tanrı'nın insana özgü ülkülerin bir yansıması olduğunu, insanın özgürlüğünün tanrı'yı inkârla gerçekleşebileceğini öne sürmüş; dini insanın etkinlik alanına indiren bu görüşten yola çıkan marks ise, ezilenlerin egemenliğiyle birlikte dinin de yok olacağı varsayımıyla ateizm'i doruk noktasına çıkarmıştır. bu çizgiyi kemâline ulaştıran nietzsche ise, "tanrı'nın ölümü" adlı kitabında, insanın kendisini bütünlemesi ve özünü bulması için göstermesi gereken en insanca tepkinin ateizm olduğunu söylemiştir. darwin, geliştirdiği kuramla yaratıcı-tanrı kavramını dışlarken; freud, tanrı inancının çaresızlık içindeki insanın çocukluk durumuna dönerek koruyucu bir babaya sığınma ihtiyacından doğduğunu öne sürerek, psikolojik çerçevedeki inkârı gündeme getirmek yoluyla ateizm'e bir başka boyut kazandırmıştır. yüzyılımızdaysa, ateizm'i jean paul şartre, albert camus gibi varoluşçular temsil ettiler. bunlar, insanın evrende bir başına olduğu ve kendi değerlerini belirlemek özgürlüğüne sahip bulunduğu düşüncesinden yola çıkarak, bu özgürlüğü kabulün kaçınılmaz sonucu olarak tanrı'nın inkârına gitmektedirler. agnostizm (bilinmezcilik) ve pozitivizm (olguculuk) gibi ateizm'i andıran görüşler, açıkça "tanrı yoktur" demeyip de "bilinemez" "tartışılması bilimsel değildir" türünden ifadeler kullandıklarından konumuzun dışında kalmaktadır. islâm literatüründe, dehriyye* diye adlandırılan ateizm, kronolojik bakımdan iki ayrı safha halinde irdelenebilir. cahiliyye dönemi dehriliği ve islâm sonrasındaki dehriyyun... kur'an-ı kerîm'de: "dediler ki: o (hayat dedikleri) şey, dünya hayatımızdan başkası değildir; ölürüz, diriliriz, ve bizi ancak dehr (zaman) helâk etmektedir.' halbuki onların bu sözlerinde hiçbir ilimleri yoktur. onlar ancak zanda bulunuyorlar. " (el-casiye, 45/24) haberiyle bildirilen cahiliyye dehriliği, yaratılmayı inkârla zaman ve maddenin ebediliğini öne süren bir inançtır. felsefî anlamdaki islâm sonrası dehrilik ise, muhtemelen, sâsânîler döneminde yaygın bir inanç olarak gözlenen "herşeyi değiştiren ve herşeyden kuvvetli olan, tüm olayları oluşturan ve yönlendiren büyük güç, ilâhî zat olan hürmüz değil, yalnızca sınırsız zamandır" temel inancı üzerine oturtulmuş bulunan zurvanig'in karşılığı ve uzantısıdır. bu inancın sahipleri allah'ı inkâr ederek, bütün oluşları zaman, dehr ya da felek adını verdikleri akışa bağlamaktaydılar.

Nearly 65 percent of Italians believe a cabal of multinational corporations control the world and are “responsible for everything that happens to us,” according to a survey conducted in 2021. Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni may not be among those surveyed, but she has proved similarly susceptible to conspiracy theories.
Meloni is the first Western European leader to espouse the great relacement theory, which claims that, instead of an organic movement driven by poverty and war, immigration to the West has been engineered. It seems to suggest that the world’s political and business elite are meeting somewhere in secret to increase the flow of immigrants, and not just to avail the benefits of cheap labor but rather to replace the white race with brown and Black people. This set of ideas was coined in 2011 by Renaud Camus, a French writer, but has been adopted by white supremacists in several European nations and in the United States.
Matthew Feldman, a writer and specialist on right-wing extremism, said the great replacement theory is flexible enough to be used by conservatives in a watered-down form and dangerous enough to provide motive for terrorist attackers, which “we have seen in too many cases in the last five years,” he told Foreign Policy over the phone from London.
Amongst the theory’s supporters are extremists behind some of the most racist attacks in the recent past. The perpetrator of the Christchurch attack against Muslims in New Zealand in 2019, in which 51 people were killed, had titled his manifesto “The Great Replacement.” Last year, the man who shot dead 10 Black people in a supermarket in Buffalo, New York, had posted a 180-page racist diatribe with repeated endorsements of the idea. Former Fox News presenter Tucker Carlson has brought it up hundreds of times and alluded to a political angle, suggesting that members of the U.S. Democratic Party are behind immigration to replace the electorate with voters from developing nations, since they tend to vote Democrat.
The association with extremists has forced Meloni to tweak the language and refer to it as “a plan for ethnic substitution,” of European citizens, “desired by big capital.” Feldman said that “ethnic substitution” was merely “a synonym for great replacement.”
He said that even Meloni can’t use that exact wording, “because her political opponents would immediately say, ‘wait a minute, are you using the same phrase as terrorists?’”
Meloni has “on at least 15-20 occasions” publicly referenced the idea of a “plan for ethnic substitution,” said David Broder, who teaches history at Syracuse University in Florence and has most recently written a book called Mussolini’s Grandchildren: Fascism in Contemporary Italy.
Broder said that members of Meloni’s party—Fratelli d’Italia, or Brothers of Italy—positively cite literature such as Jean Raspail’s 1973 novel The Camp of the Saints, “a kind of precursor to the ‘racist’ great replacement theory.”
The theory assumes “that a purportedly homogeneous Italian ‘ethnicity’ risks being eclipsed by Muslim and African newcomers,” Broder said. He pointed out that Meloni has spoken in favor of immigration of white Christians of Italian ancestry from Venezuela.
In addition to religious intolerance, the Italian prime minister’s penchant for unsubstantiated conspiracies was also on display when she attacked billionaire philanthropist George Soros, long a bogeyman for the far right, as “the financier” of mass immigration. She has accused the Italian left of encouraging “an invasion” of immigrants and gifting them with citizenship through ius soli—a principle that grants citizenship to anyone born in a country but in Italy is applied only in special circumstances to the children of immigrants.
Since the election campaign last year and becoming prime minister, however, Meloni has had to weigh her words more carefully, if only to appear less controversial to Brussels. Italy needs billions of euros of COVID-19 recovery funds from Europe in financial assistance, which may be stalled if she appears to be oppopsing the bloc’s more progressive values.
Since 2022, “Meloni has tended to break the theory down into several distinct slogans,” added Broder, “focusing on the threat of low birthrates, or the defense of national identity.”
José Pedro Zúquete, a professor of social sciences at the University of Lisbon and the author of The Identitarians, said, “Even if she has stopped talking about ‘ethnic replacement,’ it is not far-fetched to think that it is this fear is a driving force of her policies, both in regard to immigration and natality.”
A declining birthrate in Italy has become the fig leaf with which Meloni now disguises her anti-immigrant and racist ideology, observers say. (Italy has one of the lowest birthrates in Europe and recorded the steepest decline last year. For the first time, it fell below the 400,000 mark to 393,000, recording a fertility rate of 1.24 children per woman, far below the 2.1 replacement level at which a population exactly replaces itself from one generation to the next.)
Italian political experts believe that while Meloni herself has had to rein in her racist and conspiratorial insinuations, she has given a free hand to her party members, a reflection of her policy aims behind closed doors.
Late last month, as the Italian Agriculture Minister Francesco Lollobrigida said that Italians risked “ethnic replacement” by immigrants as the birthrate in Italy declines and declared that was “not the way forward,” Italian opposition retorted that his comments smacked of white supremacy and reminded them of the fascist regime of Benito Mussolini. Lollobrigida happens to be a member of Meloni’s Brothers of Italy party—and her brother-in-law.
The Italian government has decided to improve social welfare for Italian mothers to encourage them to have more babies in what would be seen as an innocuous national policy if not for Meloni and her party’s racist underpinnings. On one hand, Meloni backs a pro-natalist agenda and wants to reduce value added tax on baby products, such as nappies and milk bottles, and make child care affordable. On the other, she effectively opposes citizenship for babies born in immigrant families. On one hand, she advocates for Italian mothers to enter the workforce; on the other, she only insists Italian women take up jobs so immigrants don’t.
Italy urgently needs nearly 200,000 farmworkers, as well as hotel staff and baristas for coffee shops in espresso country. Meloni says that Italian women, not immigrants, should fill these vacancies. “The way to resolve this is not migrants,” she said, “but that great, unused reserve which is the female workforce.”
Pedro Zúquete said that Meloni is pushing for a new immigration law that will be “much harsher” on irregular immigration.
She has threatened a naval blockade to stop migrants from crossing the Mediterranean Sea in the guise of protecting them from drownings, and signed a pact with Libya, despite the treatment meted out to immigrants in the war-torn country. Dunja Mijatović, high commissioner of the Council of Europe, has condemned Italy’s memorandum of understanding with Libya, which “plays a central role in facilitating the interceptions of refugees, asylum seekers and migrants at sea, and their subsequent return to Libya.”
At the European Council meeting on migration in February, Meloni said that “redistribution [of migrants] has never been my priority,” and that the EU’s Voluntary Solidarity Mechanism has not worked.
The mechanism was established to reduce the pressure of refugee arrivals in coastal states such as Italy, Greece, and Malta and relocate them to other European countries on a voluntary basis. As of January 2023, only 207 people have benefited from the scheme, mainly owing to the reluctance of other EU states to accept immigrants.
According to Frontex—the EU border and coast guard agency—since 2016, the EU witnessed the biggest rise in irregular immigration last year. Around 330,000 crossings were detected, a 64 percent increase from the previous year.
In absence of a fair division of immigrants across Europe and further guided by the conspiracy theory of the great replacement, Meloni was full of praise for the British conservatives’ policy to deport asylum-seekers crossing the English Channel on small boats to their country of origin or Rwanda, a “safe” third nation.
Whilst visiting the United Kingdom about a week ago, Meloni said the British government was handling “traffickers and illegal migration” very well. “I’m following your work and I absolutely agree with your work and I think there are many things that we can do together,” she said to Rishi Sunak, the British prime minister.
Italy, unlike the U.K., is a part of the EU. Unless power in the continent shifts more to the far-right, Meloni will have to operate within limits.
Pedro Zúquete, however, felt that as European societies become more multicultural and multiethnic, “we can assume that the ‘great replacement’ frame of analysis will become more prevalent in mainstream conservative narratives.”
Meloni’s Brothers of Italy party has its roots in the Movimento Sociale Italiano (Italian Social Movement), created by Mussolini’s supporters. She speaks of being a woman, a mother, and a Christian, committed to defend God, country, and family. But her support for racist theories implies that she means only her family and those who look like her, excluding those who practice a different faith or simply look darker, even if they feel equally Italian or contribute equally to Italian society.

In the 20th century.
Biography of translators in the 20th century.
Tadeusz Boy-Żeleński (1874-1941), a Polish poet, translated more than 100 French literary classics, including works by poet François Villon, by writers Rabelais and La Rochefoucauld, by philosophers Montaigne and Montesquieu, by novelists Stendhal, Balzac and Proust, by playwrights Molière, Racine, Marivaux and Beaumarchais, and by philosophers Voltaire, Descartes and Pascal. He was murdered in July 1941 during the Nazi occupation of Poland, together with 24 other Polish professors, in what became known as the massacre of Lviv professors (Lviv is now in Ukraine).
Zenobia Camprubi (1887-1956), a Spanish feminist writer, was the first translator of Bengali writer Rabindranath Tagore’s works into Spanish, and translated 22 works by Tagore (collections of poems, short stories, plays) over the years. Married to Spanish poet Juan Ramón Jiménez, she was a pioneer of feminism for actively promoting women in society in all the places where she lived (Spain, Cuba, the United States, Puerto Rico).
James Strachey (1887-1967), an English psychoanalyst, translated with his wife Alix Strachey (1892-1973) all the works of Austrian psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud after moving to Vienna, Austria. The 24-volume translation was published by Hogarth Press in London under the title “The Standard Edition of the Complete Psychological Works of Sigmund Freud”, with introductions to Freud’s various works, and extensive bibliographical and historical footnotes. It became the reference edition of Freud’s works in English, as well as a reference work for translations into other languages.
Boris Pasternak (1890-1960), a Russian writer, turned to translation to provide for his family after being vilified for his refusal to glorify communist values in his writings. He translated works by German poets Goethe, Rilke and Schiller, by French poet Verlaine, by Spanish dramatist Calderón de la Barca, and by English playwright Shakespeare. Because of their colloquial and modernised dialogues, his translations of Shakespeare’s plays were more popular with Russian audiences than translations by Russian writers Mikhail Lozinsky (1886-1955) and Samuil Marshak (1887-1964).
Jorge Luis Borges (1899-1986), an Argentine writer, translated into Spanish — while subtly transforming — works by English writers Rudyard Kipling and Virginia Woolf, by American writers William Faulkner, Edgar Allan Poe and Walt Whitman, by German writers Hermann Hesse and Franz Kafka, by French writer André Gide, and by others. He also wrote and lectured extensively on the art of translation.
Charlotte H. Bruner (1917-1999), an American scholar, translated works by African French women writers for them to reach a wider audience. With her husband David Kincaid, she spent one year in Africa interviewing these women writers, and aired these interviews after their return to the United States. She was a pioneer in African studies and in world literature at a time when American universities mainly taught European literature.
Simin Daneshvar (1921-2012), an Iranian writer, and Jalal Al-e-Ahmad (1923-1969), an Iranian philosopher, translated many literary works into Persian. Simin Daneshvar translated works by Russian writers Anton Chekhov and Maxim Gorki, by American writer Nathaniel Hawthorne, by Austrian writer Arthur Schnitzler, by Armenian-American writer William Saroyan and by South African writer Alan Paton. Jalal Al-e-Ahmad translated works by Russian novelist Fyodor Dostoyevsky and by French writers Albert Camus, Jean-Paul Sartre, André Gide and Eugène Ionesco.

Quote
What I didn't realise was that important philosophical differences divided the work of [Albert] Camus and [Jean-Paul] Sartre. Much as they liked Camus personally, neither Sartre nor [Simone de] Beauvoir accepted his vision of absurdity. For them, life is not absurd, even when viewed on a cosmic scale, and nothing can be gained by saying it is. Life for them is full of real meaning, although that meaning emerges differently for each of us. As Sartre argued in his 1943 review of 'The Outsider', basic phenomenological principles show that experience comes to us already charged with significance. A piano sonata is a melancholy evocation of longing. If I watch a football match, I see it as a football match, not as a meaningless scene in which a number of people run around taking turns to apply their lower limbs to a spherical object. If the latter is what I'm seeing, then I am not watching some more essential, truer version of football; I am failing to watch it properly as football at all. Sartre knew very well that we can lose sight of the sense of things. lf I am sufficiently upset at how my team is doing, or undergoing a crisis in my grasp of the world in general, I might stare hopelessly at the players as though they were indeed a group of random people running around. Many such moments occur in 'Nausea', when Roquentin himself flummoxed by a doorknob or a beer glass. But for Sartre, unlike for Camus, such collapses reveal a pathological state: they are failures of intentionality, not glimpses into a greater truth. Sartre therefore wrote in his review of 'The Outsider'; that Camus 'is claiming to render raw experience and yet he is slyly filtering out all the meaningful connections which are also part of the experience’. Camus, he said, was too influenced by David Hume, who 'announced that all he could find in experience was isolated impressions';. Sartre thinks life only looks pointillist like that when something has gone awry. For Sartre, the awakened individual is neither Roquentin, fixating on objects in cafés and parks, nor Sisyphus, rolling a stone up the mountainside with the bogus cheerfulness of Tom Sawyer white-washing a fence. It is a person who is engaged in doing something purposeful, in the full confidence that it means something. It is person who is truly free.
