«Discurso del Método» is the philosophical essay by René Descartes, published by Planeta in paperback alongside the «Tratado de las pasiones del alma» (240 pages).
In the «Discurso del método», René Descartes explains the way to distinguish truth from falsehood through methodical doubt and reason, from provisional morality to the conclusion «pienso, luego existo». The «Tratado de las pasiones del alma» examines human emotions, their origin in the body, and their link with the soul and morality.
Text in Spanish with an introduction by Miguel Ángel Granada. «Discurso del método» was originally published in 1637; this edition is from 1989.
For readers who want to approach modern philosophy through two essential texts by Descartes.
René Descartes was a French philosopher, scientist, logician, and mathematician, widely considered a seminal figure in the emergence of modern philosophy and science during the Renaissance era. Mathematics was paramount to his method of inquiry, and he connected the previously separate fields of geometry and algebra into analytic geometry.
