Kedves Kollegak !
Ez csak egy emlekezteto.
A Magyar Tudomanyos Akademia Filozofiai es Tortenettudomanyok Osztalya
1999. december 16-an Kardos Lajos szuletesenek szazadik evfordulja
alkalmabol jubileumi osztalyulest rendez.
Az ules helye: MTA Szekhaz Felolvaso terem (Roosevelt ter I.e.)
Az ules ideje: 1999. december 16, csutortok 14 ora.
A 40 perces eloadast egy 1975-ben keszult televizios fil bemutatsa koveti.
KARDOS LAJOS EMLEKEZETE
Pleh Csaba eloadas kivonata
Az eloadas Kardos Lajos munkassaganak elso mozzanatakent a latas
konstancia jelensegeivel kapcsolatos kutatasait eleveniti fel. Ramutat
arra, hogyan mutatta a kor szervezodeskozpontu szellemet es finom
fenomenologiajat a kontextualis kiserletezes, s ugyanakkor milyen sajatos
felhangot ad ennek Kardosnal a matematizalas. Kardosnak a hatvanas evek
elmeleti irasaiban jelenik ez meg ujra, mint az erzekeles s kulonosen a
konstanciak kibernetikus ujraertelmezese.
Kardos Lajos osszehasonlito lelektani munkassagaval harom evtizeden at
egyseges elmelet kialakitasara torekedett. Ennek kiindulo mozzanata az
allati viselkedes ekvivalencia viszonyainak ertelmezese illetve a
helytanulas problemaja. Ezekbol az eloszor a harmincas evekben
megfogalmazott kerdesekbol bontakozott ki az allati mnemikus mezo elmelete
illetve azok a kiserletek, amelyek az emlekek helyhez kotottsege
tekinteteben vetik ossze az embert mas emlosokkel.
Kiter az eloadas Kardos Lajos keves viszhangot kapott elmeletere
a lelki elet keletkezeserol, ramutatva, hogy milyen rokonsag van az ott
bemutatott informacios mozzanat es a mai reprezentacios onallosodasi
felfogasok kozott.
Kardos kutatasi es emberi stilusaban, mikozben errol igen keveset
beszelt, jol nyomonkovetheto a becsi szellem hatsa. Megjelenik
ez temavalasztasaiban es metaforaiban, de abban is, ahogyan a nehez
kerdesekben is finom fogalmi elemzesre es nyelvi szigorusagra torekszik.
Olyan orokseg ez, melyre a tudomany viszonylagossagat hangsulyozo
korunkban ugy kell emlekeznunk, mint annak bizonysagara, hogy a klasszikus
kutatoi hozzaallas evtizedek mulva is ervenyes s ujraolvashato
eredmenyeket hoz, mint azt Kardos korai munkainak mai "felfedezese" is
mutatja.
