A seminal discussion of literature by the author of The Revolt of the Masses.
In diesem Werk sind vier Essays versammelt, die sich verschiedensten Themen widmen. Von Fragen nach Glaubensgewissheit, über Betrachtungen von Selbstentfremdung, bis hin zu Ideen für eine Geschichte der Philosophie, in all diese Themen wird der Hörer durch die Stimme von Wolfgang Nogler eingeführt. Der Autor Ortega ist nach nur wenigen setzen tief in der Thematik und ihren Problemen angekommen – und nach wie er selbst denkt auch im dem wesentlich utopischen Charakters des menschlichen Tuns. Dem Hörer werden die Augen geöffnet durch Einsichten und Zusammenhänge, die ihm bis zu diesem Zeitpunkt noch nicht bewusst waren.Der spanische Philosoph, Soziologe und Essayist José Ortega y Gasset wurde am 9. Mai 1883 in eine Journalistenfamilie in Madrid geboren. Er studierte an der Universität von Deusto in Bilbao und später an der Universität Madrid Philosophie. Zu Studienzwecken verbrachte er auch einige Jahre in Deutschland. Zurück in Spanien begann Ortega seine literarische Arbeit in Zeitschriften und Zeitungen und wirkte 1931 an der spanischen Verfassung mit. Am 18. Oktober 1955 verstarb er in Madrid. Er gilt als einer der bedeutendsten spanischen Denker des 20. Jahrhundert.
"The Dehumanization of Art and Other Essays on Art, Culture and Literature".
Ortega deals here with the roots and historical justification of philosophy, and the question of philosophy's essential unity.
"A worthy companion of the author's The Revolt of the Masses. Both books are marked by the brilliance, originality, and depth of the author's interpretation of the crisis of our age and of the basic historical processes." -Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science
Four stimulating essays: "The Sportive Origin of the State," "Unity and Diversity of Europe," "Man the Technician," and "History as a System." The essays by Ortega in this volume were originally published under the title Toward a Philosophy of History.
This book, an exploration of the work of Leibnitz, is Ortega's most systematic contribution to philosophy.
The distinguished philosopher explores the foundations of sociology and makes a fresh examination of the meaning of society.
This volume, based on lectures given by Ortega in 1915-1916, makes available more of his translated works and is an important part of his philosophical legacy. It gives expression, in characteristically lucid and accessible prose, to Ortega's encounter with classical psychology and Husserl's phenomenology.
Two sets of previously untranslated lectures given by Ortega in the early 1940s form the basis of this volume. They deal with Western man's need for the new species of thought that Ortega designates as "historical reason."
Jose Ortega y Gasset was a writer and a thinker in the finest sense of both words. He was also an extraordinary educator who attracted eager students and enthusiasts of all ages. His inexhaustible subject was man and man's problems.
Social upheaval in early 20th-century Europe is the historical setting for this study by Spanish philosopher, Jose Ortega y Gasset. In print since 1932, Ortega's vision of Western culture is of society sinking to its lowest common denominator and drifting toward chaos.
