«Del sentimiento trágico de la vida en los hombres y en los pueblos» is the philosophical essay by Miguel de Unamuno (Alianza, paperback, 295 pages).
Miguel de Unamuno starts from the conflict between reason and faith to ask whether human beings can overcome death. He reflects on the existence of God, the longing for immortality, anguish and the mortal condition, and proposes a philosophy born of feeling and concrete life, not only of abstract thought.
Originally published in 1912, this edition includes a prologue by Fernando Savater and belongs to El libro de bolsillo, Literature section (no. 1168).
A reference work for readers of philosophy and essays, especially for those who follow Spanish thought and the debates between faith and reason.
Miguel de Unamuno y Jugo was a Spanish essayist, novelist, poet, playwright, philosopher and academic. His major philosophical essay was Tragic Sense of Life (1913), and his most famous novels were Abel Sánchez: The History of a Passion (1917), a modern exploration of the Cain and Abel story, and Mist (1914), which The Literary Encyclopedia calls "the most acclaimed Spanish Modernist novel".
