La Filosofia del Siglo XX

The new work by Professor Rolando Pérez unfolds a critical cartography of 20th-century philosophical thought, tracing its genesis in German idealism to its projection into the contemporary world. Throughout its pages, we see how anti-philosophy and the analytical current shook the traditional foundations of thought. Their methodological questioning transformed not only the problems addressed, but also the very way of doing philosophy. At the same time, the dialogue between philosophy and psychoanalysis opened up unexplored territories, generating conceptualizations that neither of these disciplines could have achieved alone. No less relevant is his reading of existentialism, approached from its dual philosophical and literary perspectives, revealing how its ideas deeply permeated the culture of the last century. His analysis of the contributions of feminism and postcolonialism shows how these currents, by incorporating historically silenced perspectives, not only broadened philosophical discourse but also questioned its most deeply rooted assumptions. The book culminates by tracing the arc from structuralism to postmodernism, leading to the questions posed by posthumanism about our condition in times of technological revolution. Without a doubt, this is an essential map for navigating the intellectual transformations that have shaped our understanding of the world today.
