Reihe: Reality and hermeneutics

Ist die Philosophie noch lebendig? Gibt es Alternativen zum einseitigen postmodernen Denken? Ist es sinnvoll, uralte Fragen nach der Existenz der Wirklichkeit und der Möglichkeit von Wissen, nach Sein (Ontologie) und Wissen (Epistemologie) zu stellen? Ernesto Castro beantwortet diese und viele andere Fragen, die die Philosophie heute beschäftigen, mit einem klaren "Ja".
