Synopsis

The Sense of the World, by one of the most influential of Spanish philosophers, is the author's first book in English and effectively summarizes his entire body of work, which can be divided into four categories: hermeneutical treatises; symbolic and mythological studies, especially interpretations of Basque mythology; metaphysics of the sense of life; and aphorisms. In this work, Ortiz-Osés places the question of the meaning of the world in the context of a philosophy of the soul, a key concept of which is affective reason. He takes into account the meaning of existence and compares several worldviews with a special emphasis on a Latin/Hispanic-American worldview.
