«Paisajes» is a selection of essays by José Ortega y Gasset, published by C.E.G.A.L. in paperback (93 pages, in Spanish).
«Paisajes» brings together a series of masterly pages by José Ortega y Gasset, drawn from his work, mainly from «El Espectador». The volume offers a sample of the prose of the Madrid-born philosopher and essayist, with texts of a reflective and descriptive tone that serve as a gateway to his thought and literary style.
The 1983 edition was promoted by Spanish booksellers on the occasion of the centenary of Ortega y Gasset's birth; the selection comes from El Espectador (volumes I, III and V).
José Ortega y Gasset was a Spanish philosopher and essayist. He worked during the first half of the 20th century while Spain oscillated between monarchy, republicanism and dictatorship. His philosophy has been characterized as a "philosophy of life" that "comprised a long-hidden beginning in a pragmatist metaphysics inspired by William James and with a general method from a realist phenomenology imitating Edmund Husserl, which served both his proto-existentialism and his realist historicism, which has been compared to both Wilhelm Dilthey and Benedetto Croce."
