Ancient Greek philosophers believed that the eternal truths were wrapped in riddles, and the deciphering of these riddles constituted a process of unraveling the objective world and understanding oneself, ultimately leading to a scientific comprehension of the hidden inner patterns. History, being an open-ended riddle, manifests different facets of enigma at various periods, displaying a profound complexity and secrecy. Marx employs the metaphor of riddle in his analysis of essence of history, forming a distinctive mode of contemplation characterized by the interplay of “distinguishing the riddle” and “solving the riddle,” encapsulated within his renowned discussion on the “riddle of history.” The riddle of history is not an abstract, mystical concealment of truth, but rather, the objectivity of the driving laws and the connection between experience determine the universality and realistic value of “riddle” as a metaphor for the real predicament of human existence. Portraying the development of history as a grand game between distinguishing and solving riddles should not hinder our understanding of the world but serve as an effective medium and means. Through the discernment of “riddle facets,” it continually inspires us to maintain curiosity and enthusiasm for the unknown within the ongoing process of historical development.

Semmelweis’s work on the nature and cause of childbed fever has been used as a ‘paradigm case’ by philosophers of science “to illustrate aspects of the confirmation of theory by data” for more than fifty years (Scholl & Räz 2016). However, in 2013, Dana Tulodziecki challenged this paradigmatic view, and argued, based on a reconstruction of Semmelweis’s work that differed from “the standard story as it is found in the extant philosophical literature on Semmelweis”, that Semmelweis was “not the excellent reasoner he has been supposed to be.” Philosophers of science have accepted Tulodziecki’s reconstruction of Semmelweis work at face value as valid, and have already used it to question the philosophical theses Semmelweis work has been used to illustrate. The purpose of this article is to cut short this revisionist trend by demonstrating that, based on the Semmelweis’s own account of his theory and reasoning, and on other contemporaneous publications, Tuloziecki’s account of Semmelweis’s work is in every material respect incorrect and historically untenable.

This paper considers the practice of drawing lines in the context of architectural design. The core argument is that drawing lines generates the conditions for creative thought. Moreover, this initial claim is discussed in the context of the creative process in architectural design, as lines play an indispensable role in the locus of creation. First, the so-called “representational paradigm” about hand drawing is critically discussed, leading to the exposition of a new philosophical account regarding drawing. This new position consists of three theses: (I) it regards the drawing surface as a topos or “space of drawing”; (II) it regards drawings as situated figurations; (III) and it regards lines as processes. Jointly, these three theses form the “performative paradigm”, casting each aspect of the drawing process in terms of an unfolding dynamic in which inhabitative imagination and aesthetic sensibility play decisive roles. Lastly, these conclusions are formalized in a design model.

The Turing Machine Halting Problem is a major problem in computer theory, Russell’s Paradox is the root of the Third Mathematical Crisis, and the Gödel Incompleteness Theorem is a major discovery in modern logic. The three have had a profound impact on the development of science and have attracted the attention of scientific and philosophical circles. However, since the Gödel Incompleteness Theorem was put forward, the scientific and philosophical significance of its proof has been questioned; in particular, Wittgenstein regards it as a certain logical paradox, and Russell’s Paradox has not yet been settled. This paper makes a detailed analysis of the three based on the view of dialectical infinity. The author notes that the Principle of Comprehension based on the view of actual infinity is the root of Russell’s Paradox. The Turing Machine Halting Problem shows that it is impossible to make an actual-infinite ultimate judgment of the constantly generated infinite world, but the philosophical significance of the Gödel Incompleteness Theorem is that our understanding of the world is essentially potentially infinite. At the end of the article, the author raises several questions about the proof of the Gödel Incompleteness Theorem, finds out the specific paradox form in the proof, points out the high consistency of its proof method and Russell’s Paradox, which strongly supports Wittgenstein’s view. The author points out that the philosophical basis of the proof of the Gödel Incompleteness Theorem is the idea of actual infinity, the proof of the theorem is based on a logically invalid circular formula, the contradiction of the proof originates from the Gödel formula itself, and cannot be attributed to the incompleteness of the system, so the proof is wrong. Therefore, the conclusion of this paper is that the world is constantly developing and changing, and our human understanding of the world is essentially a potential infinite, that is, the world is Aristotelian, not Platonic.

Creativity has always been perceived as a human trait, even though the exact neural mechanisms remain unknown, it has been the subject of research and debate for a long time. The recent development of AI technologies and increased interest in AI has led to many projects capable of performing tasks that have been previously regarded as impossible without human creativity. Music composition, visual arts, literature, and science represent areas in which these technologies have started to both help and replace the creative human, with the question of whether AI can be creative and capable of creation more realistic than ever. This review aims to provide an extensive perspective over several state-of-the art technologies and applications based on AI which are currently being implemented into areas of interest closely correlated to human creativity, as well as the economic impact the development of such technologies might have on those domains.

Throughout the Taiping Rebellion, the issue of food supply became its Achilles heel, causing extremely adverse effects on the revolutionary movement. In the early stages of the uprising, due to insufficient food supply, it had to break through from Yong’an, making military operations constrained by food supply; Nanjing was established as the capital for the convenience of food supply, which resulted in significant military strategic mistakes; At the same time, the insufficient supply of food intensified the internal contradictions of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. It adopted methods such as ordering tribute and attacking vanguard to obtain food, which not only disappointed the farmers who had high hopes for it, but also caused serious opposition among landlords and gentry. Even the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom’s army had several incidents of fire and union to compete for food. The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom experienced a food crisis due to food supply issues, which led to serious political, military, and religious crises, ultimately leading to the failure of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom movement.

Martin Heidegger and Ludwig Wittgenstein are two of the most important philosophers of twentieth-century philosophy, and their ideas became the founders of two major philosophical traditions (Continental Philosophy and Anglo-Saxon Philosophy). Their ideas were formed on the basis of a common problematic consciousness, i.e. a critique of the philosophy of subjectivity. So on this basis, it is possible to seek the intrinsic relationship between the two views, from which we can get a glimpse of the two philosophers’ different answers to the common problem and seek the possibility of mutual dialog.

Recall refers to the retention of information, it involves three stages namely encoding, storage and retrieval. Interference in recall would arise when there is a competition at the stage of encoding. Recalling morphological information is assumed to load the cognitive-linguistic system and recalling the same information in the presence of competitor stimulus can evoke more taxing to the system. The current study was carried out with the aim of studying interference and recall in young and middle aged individuals. The participants were divided into two groups based on their age and each group comprised of 25 individuals. Free Recall and bound Recall task was administered on the participants. Participants in both the group secured less scores, however a statistically significant difference between the two groups was not seen showing that the middle aged adults were also able to perform in par with younger participants and decline in memory was not evident in this population, even in task with higher cognitive-linguistic complexity.

The Lisu, inhabitants of Nujiang River Canyon in China’s northwestern Yunnan Province, believe in three set of religious beliefs: their own primitive religion, Christianity and Catholicism, introduced by Western missionaries in the 18th century (Yang et al. (Eds.), 1993). Religious convictions permeate all aspects of life conducted by Lisu and do have a profound impact upon various aspects of their traditional culture. The present article explores how religious tenets have helped shape and have affected traditional Lisu medicine, investigating the relationship between religion, culture, and traditional medicine, tracking the path from Lisu ancient history down to modern times.
