Phenomenology and Existentialism in the Twentieth Century
Our world’s cultural circles are permeated by the philosophical influences of existentialism and phenomenology. Two contemporary quests to elucidate rationality – took their inspirations from Kierkegaard’s existentialism plumbing the subterranean source of subjective experience and Husserl’s phenomenology focusing on the constitutive aspect of rationality. Yet, both contrary directions mingled readily in common vindication of full reality. In the inquisitive minds (Scheler, Heidegger, Sartre, Stein, Merleau-Ponty, et al.), a fruitful cross-pollination of insights, ideas, approaches, fused in one powerful wave disseminating throughout all domains of thought. Existentialist rejection of ratiocination and speculation together with Husserl’s shift to the genesis of rapproches philosophy and literature (Wahl, Marcel, Berdyaev, Wojtyla, Tischner, etc.), while the foundational underpinnings of language (Wittgenstein, Derrida, etc.) opened the "hidden" behind the "veils" (Sezgin and Dominguez-Rey).
Historia de la Psicología
La historia de la psicología es apasionante tanto por la complejidad del camino que debió seguirse para que se constituyera como ciencia como por la enorme aportación que los psicólogos han realizado a la cultura contemporánea y a nuestro modo de comprendernos. El presente texto relata con detalle esta historia en tres partes. En la primera, Fundamentos, se proporcionan claves básicas en torno a la ciencia y se describen las corrientes filosóficas más relevantes para la constitución o comprensión de la psicología. La segunda parte, Fundación de la psicología científica (s. XIX-XX), describe el período fundacional de la psicología, en la que esta se separa de la filosofía y s...
The Queen's Hand
Her name is undoubtedly less familiar than that of her grandmother, Eleanor of Aquitaine, or that of her famous conqueror son, Fernando III, yet during her lifetime, Berenguela of Castile (1180-1246) was one of the most powerful women in Europe. As queen-consort of Alfonso IX of León, she acquired the troubled boundary lands between the kingdoms of Castile and León and forged alliances with powerful nobles on both sides. Even after her marriage was dissolved, she continued to strengthen these connections as a member of her father's court. On her brother's death, she inherited the Castilian throne outright—and then, remarkably, elevated her son to kingship at the same time. Using her assi...
The Lara Family
For much of the Middle Ages, the Lara family was among the most powerful aristocratic lineages in Spain. Proteges of the monarchy at the time of El Cid, their influence reached extraordinary heights during the struggle against the Moors. Hand-in-glove with successive kings, they gathered an impressive array of military and political positions across the Iberian Peninsula. But cooperation gave way to confrontation, as the family was pitted against the crown in a series of civil wars. This book, the first modern study of the Laras, explores the causes of change in the dynamics of power, and narrates the dramatic story of the events that overtook the family. The Laras' militant quest for territorial strength and the conflict with the monarchy led toward a fatal end, but anticipated a form of aristocratic power that long outlived the family. The noble elite would come to dominate Spanish society in the coming centuries, and the Lara family provides important lessons for students of the history of nobility, monarchy, and power in the medieval and early modern world.
An Introduction to Personalism
Much has been written about the great personalist philosophers of the 20th century – including Jacques Maritain and Emmanuel Mournier, Martin Buber and Emmanuel Levinas, Dietrich von Hildebrand and Edith Stein, Max Scheler and Karol Wojtyla (later Pope John Paul II) – but few books cover the personalist movement as a whole. An Introduction to Personalism fills that gap. Juan Manuel Burgos shows the reader how personalist philosophy was born in response to the tragedies of two World Wars, the Great Depression, and the totalitarian regimes of the 1930s. Through a revitalization of the concept of the person, an array of thinkers developed a philosophy both rooted in the best of the intellec...

La experiencia integral
Este libro propone un nuevo modo de hacer filosofía o, más concretamente, un nuevo modo de explicar cómo se origina el pensamiento humano. Frente a visiones reductivas o abstractas, apuesta por asumir, desde el inicio, lo objetivo y lo subjetivo, lo personal y lo interpersonal, lo sensible y lo intelectual. Apuesta, en otros términos, por una experiencia integral origen de todo saber: común, científico y filosófico. El autor parte de las brillantes intuiciones de Karol Wojtyla, las compara con la fenomenología y la gnoseología clásica y, sobre estos elementos, construye, por primera vez, un método específicamente personalista.
España vista por sus intelectuales
Vivimos una incertidumbre sobre España de raíces profundas y complejas: la disociación de pensamiento y vida; el cuestionamiento de la identidad nacional por parte de los separatismos; la falta de reflexión teórica sobre nuestro país o la apropiación franquista de los símbolos nacionales. Cabría pensar que la culpa es de nuestros intelectuales, que no habrían cumplido con su misión de pensar sobre su patria, pero estaríamos profundamente equivocados. La mayoría de ellos han sentido la necesidad de pensar sobre España y lo han hecho con responsabilidad, amor y profundidad. El propósito de este libro es trasladar al gran público culto parte de ese pensamiento para que piense y ...
