«Del sentimiento trágico de la vida» is the philosophical essay by Miguel de Unamuno, published by Hyspamerica in hardcover (197 pages, in Spanish).
Starting from the conflict between reason, which finds no proof of immortality, and feeling, which yearns for it, Unamuno develops the «sentimiento trágico de la vida»: the anguished awareness of finitude as the origin of philosophizing. Against dogmatic consolation, he proposes a faith crossed by doubt and an existence embraced with passion.
1984 edition published in Barcelona. Belongs to the «Historia del pensamiento» collection (number 60).
For readers interested in philosophy, essays, and classics of Spanish literature, with questions about faith and mortality.
