Filosofía y poesía

The first glimpses of María Zambrano's original thought are revealed in this fundamental work, written at the beginning of her long exile. In it he explores the primordial split between two forms of the word, philosophy and poetry, which have traveled divergent paths in Western culture, and examines this duality as an essential category of thought: the logos that seeks and the word that finds, methodical reason and the discovery by grace. Reason that longs for certainties and security in its ascent towards truth and poetry that surrenders to the multiplicity of the world, embracing the loving dispersion of the real. Zambrano transforms this dichotomy into a source of new thinking that, drawing on both traditions, points towards a poetic reason that recovers the lost integrity of the human being.
