Ensayo de Antonio Rodríguez Huéscar sobre la obra del filósofo y ensayista español.
Huéscar presents a systematic critique of idealism and modernity, framing Edmund Husserl's phenomenological philosophy as the most refined and far-reaching version of idealism. He includes the essentials of the system of categories adopted by Ortega in order to overcome idealism.
En 1958 el filósofo Antonio Rodríguez Huéscar (Fuenllana, Ciudad Real, 1912 – Madrid, 1990) publicaba en la revista de la Universidad de Puerto Rico ‘La Torre’ (en la que colaborarían también Juan Ramón Jiménez o Francisco Ayala) el texto que incluye este volumen: El hombre de Montiel, que subtitulaba “La rebelión contra el tiempo”, en la que nos ofrece interesantes reflexiones sobre el paisaje y el paisanaje de esta comarca. Poco después, en 1960 aparecería en la primera revista de ámbito regional que existió en nuestra tierra: ‘La Mancha’. Hoy lo recuperamos aquí junto con dos aportaciones sobre él: una del historiador José María Barreda Fontes y otra del joven filósofo castellanomanchego Santiago Arroyo Serrano.

It's a critical cliché that Cervantes' Don Quixote is the first modern novel, but this distinction raises two fundamental questions. First, how does one define a novel? And second, what is the relationship between this genre and understandings of modernity? In Forms of Modernity, Rachel Schmidt examines how seminal theorists and philosophers have wrestled with the status of Cervantes' masterpiece as an 'exemplary novel', in turn contributing to the emergence of key concepts within genre theory. Schmidt's discussion covers the views of well-known thinkers such as Friedrich Schlegel, José Ortega y Gasset, and Mikhail Bakhtin, but also the pivotal contributions of philosophers such as Hermann Cohen and Miguel de Unamuno. These theorists' examinations of Cervantes's fictional knight errant character point to an ever-shifting boundary between the real and the virtual. Drawing from both intellectual and literary history, Forms of Modernity richly explores the development of the categories and theories that we use today to analyze and understand novels.
What is truth? This fascinating spectrum of studies into the various rationalities of our human dealings with life - psychological, aesthetic, economic, spiritual - reveals their joints and calls for a new approach to truth. Putting both classical and contemporary conceptions aside, we find the primogenital ground of truth in the networks of correspondences, adequations, relevancies, and rationales at work in life's becoming. Does this plurivocal differentiation mean that the status of truth is relative? On the contrary, submits Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka, given the universal significance of the crucial instrument of the logos of life, "truth is the vortex of life's ontopoietic unfolding".
Writing in the tradition of Ortega y Gasset's History as a System and Saussure's linguistic model, Claudio Guillén proposes a structural approach to literary history. Originally published in 1971.
