Book Human Existence as Radical Reality

Download or read book Human Existence as Radical Reality written by Pedro Blas Gonzalez and published by . This book was released on 2005-03-01 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jose Ortega y Gasset, (1883-1955), Spanish writer, philosopher and revolutionary was noted for his humanistic criticism of modern civilization. His best known work, The Revolt of the Masses earned him an international reputation. In it, he decried the destructive influence of the mass-minded, and therefore mediocre, people, who, if not directed by the intellectually and morally superior minority, encourage the rise of fascism and totalitarianism. "Unfortunately neglected in recent years, the Spanish philosopher Jose Ortega y Gasset made important contributions to existentialism, political thought, and cultural analysis throughout the mid-twentieth century. In this skillful study of Ortega's work, Pedro Blas Gonzalez provides an important service by focusing fresh attention on a thinker and a philosophy that remain penetrating and timely." ?John K. Roth, Sexton Professor of Philosophy, Claremont McKenna College

Book An Introduction to the Politics and Philosophy of Jos   Ortega Y Gasset

Download or read book An Introduction to the Politics and Philosophy of Jos Ortega Y Gasset written by Andrew Dobson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1989-03-09 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a general survey of the life and work of the Spanish philosopher and essayist Ortega y Gasset (1183-1955), author of the widely read The Revolt of the Masses. Dr Dobson divides his study into sections devoted to Ortega's political thinking and to his philosophy, rooting these in the context of contemporary Spain and discussing the wider implications of their influence. He examines Ortega's position with regard to the Civil War, his ambivalent espousal of socialism, his emphasis on the importance of the select individual in the modernisation of society and creation of a nació vital; the appropriation of his ideas by Primo de Rivera in the cause of fascism. This book is intended to be accessible to both Hispanists and general readers with an interest in literature, history, intellectual and political thought and philosophy.

Book What is Knowledge

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jose Ortega y Gasset
  • Publisher : State University of New York Press
  • Release : 2012-02-01
  • ISBN : 0791489574
  • Pages : 266 pages

Download or read book What is Knowledge written by Jose Ortega y Gasset and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Appearing in English for the first time, this book comprises two of Ortega's most important works, ¿Qué es conocimiento? and the essay "Ideas y creencias." This is Ortega's attempt to systematically present the foundations of his metaphysics of human life and, on that basis, to provide a radical philosophical account of knowledge. In so doing, he criticizes idealism and overcomes it. Accordingly, this book goes well beyond a treatise on epistemology; in fact, as understood in modern philosophy, this discipline and its questions are shown to be derivative and, in that sense, they are transcended here by Ortega's systematic effort. Written during the time of his maturity, these works are representative of his fruitful and radical period. Both ¿Qué es conocimiento? and "Ideas y creencias" are equally decisive not only for the understanding and radical completion of Ortega's work, but also for their relevance to the work of continental philosophers during the same period and for years to come (e.g., Husserl, Jaspers, Heidegger, Sartre, and others).

Book Some Lessons in Metaphysics

    Book Details:
  • Author : José Ortega y Gasset
  • Publisher : W W Norton & Company Incorporated
  • Release : 1971-02
  • ISBN : 9780393005141
  • Pages : 158 pages

Download or read book Some Lessons in Metaphysics written by José Ortega y Gasset and published by W W Norton & Company Incorporated. This book was released on 1971-02 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ortega's entry into the writing world came by way of newspaper essays that are still read by generations seeking revelations and interpretations of the world. He wrote on varied subjects: love, bullfighting, hunting, education, and Don Quixote. His incessant search for knowledge led him into political theory and practice and metaphysics as well. This present book represents Ortega's incursions into a field of thought along which anyone curious enough to travel will find leads him into a succession of ideas that extend his vision and his understanding of himself. If generations of men have puzzled over man's role in the universe and have tried to put it into words, Ortega's phrase "I am myself and my circumstances" is so simply and appealingly true that it may come as a great surprise to find it hailed as an important philosophic contribution. In this day of alienation, when the young have difficulty finding out who they are, Ortega's venture into metaphysics is a lit lamp in the first chapter, of the student's role will shed light on the reason for present student disorders.

Ortega y Gasset influenced existentialism and the work of Martin Heidegger. In this book Ortega y Gasset takes on the subject of love. Chapters include: Features of Love; Love in Stendhal; The Role of Choice in Love; Thoughts on Standing Before the Marquesa de Santillana's Portrait; Landscape with a Deer in the Background; Portrait of Salome and Toward a Psychology of the Interesting Man.
