José Ortega y Gasset was a Spanish liberal philosopher and essayist working during the first half of the 20th century while Spain oscillated between monarchy, republicanism and dictatorship. He was, along with Kant, Schopenhauer, and Nietzsche, a proponent of the idea of perspectivism.
A mind-altering dive into the nature of history, philosophy, and the history of philosophy. It starts with an application of historical reason into the idea of liberty in the Romans as the Romans perceived it, and then moves on to other essays describing the nature and function of histories of philosophy, and then moves on to an expansive and altogether enlightening walk through the philosophy of Dilthey, and how he pioneered the historical popular method of understanding the human condition.
