Ortega deals here with the roots and historical justification of philosophy, and the question of philosophy's essential unity.
José Ortega y. Gasset Libri
9 maggio 1883 – 18 ottobre 1955
Un filosofo e saggista liberale spagnolo, la cui opera è profondamente radicata nel concetto di prospettivismo, l'idea che non esista un'unica verità oggettiva, ma una moltitudine di punti di vista individuali. Ha esplorato la condizione umana e le dinamiche sociali durante un periodo di significativo sconvolgimento politico in Spagna. I suoi saggi offrono un profondo esame della realtà vista attraverso la lente dell'esperienza individuale.
This book, first published in 1930 and reissued in 1961, examines the Western phenomenon of the rise of the 'mass-man'. Analysing the state of society, it lays bare the problems that faced the countries of Europe in a book that resonates today in the imposition of direct action over discussion.

Kids 9 to 12 will laugh out loud while reading this adventurous graphic novel, which brings an African folk tale to life for a new audience. When Sarra's parents die, they leave her with an important warning: never let Dan Auta, her little brother, cry. But Dan Auta loves to make trouble. He hitches a ride on the back of a bird, pokes the eye of the king's son, and even pees on the king's head. Making sure he doesn't cry is much harder than Sarra thought! But Dan Auta's unbridled curiosity and determination may be exactly what everyone needs: a terrible monster called the Dodo is attacking the city... and Dan Auta is the only one with the courage to take him on. Dan Auta features: A delightful celebration of mischief and bravery A portrait of the extraordinary things kids are capable of when they follow their own paths Lively illustrations from renowned illustrator Piet Grobler Supplementary material that explains the folk tale's significance, including a note from an Eritrean translator

Těžištěm svazku je přednáškový cyklus z roku 1933, ve kterém španělský filosof podnikl jeden z vůbec prvních pokusů o teoretické uchopení techniky a jejího vztahu k člověku. V dalších esejích se Ortega y Gasset vyjadřuje k pozdnímu Heideggerovi, s nímž se setkal na kolokviu v Darmstadtu, k filosofickému stylu, k architektuře či k teoretickým problémům fyziky. Přeložil M. Špína.
Meditace o Quijotovi

Meditace o Quijotovi jsou torzem rozsáhlejšího edičního projektu, ve kterém Ortega zamýšlel podrobit zevrubnějšímu zkoumání příznačné projevy španělského života a kultury a pomocí jejich kritické interpretace vytěžit hodnoty, na nichž by bylo možné založit reálnou budoucnost tohoto národa žijícího v zajetí falešných představ o sobě samém. S tím souvisí rozdílné zaměření trojice esejů, z nichž první dva přesahují rámec tématu naznačeného titulem knihy.
