In so doing, he criticizes idealism and overcomes it. Accordingly, this book goes well beyond a treatise on epistemology; in fact, as understood in modern philosophy, this discipline and its questions are shown to be derivative and, in that sense, they are transcended here by Ortega's systematic effort.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWritten during the time of his maturity, these works are representative of his fruitful and radical period. Both  Qué es conocimiento? and \"Ideas y creencias\" are equally decisive not only for the understanding and radical completion of Ortega's work, but also for their relevance to the work of continental philosophers during the same period and for years to come (e.g., Husserl, Jaspers, Heidegger, Sartre, and others).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJosé Ortega y Gasset (1883-1955)\u003c\/b\u003e, Spanish essayist and philosopher, remains one of the most famous Spanish philosophers of the last century. \u003cb\u003eJorge García-Gómez\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor Emeritus of Philosophy at Long Island University and has translated several books, including Antonio Rodríguez Huéscar's \u003ci\u003eJosé Ortega y Gasset's Metaphysical Innovation: A Critique and Overcoming of Idealism\u003c\/i\u003e, also published by SUNY Press, and José Ortega y Gasset's \u003ci\u003ePsychological Investigations\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 264\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.57 x 8.9 x 5.94 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 25, 2001\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42723093872703,"sku":"9780791451724","price":71.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/d14421727ca45c00360b94d801d5481a.webp?v=1765097993","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/what-is-knowledge-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
