Abstract
a presente investigación trata de mostrar que la filosofía de Ortega y Gasset puede ponerse en relación con el pragmatismo norteamericano clásico, especialmente con las propuestas de William James, en base a un común páthos liberal que debe ser entendido trascendiendo su significado meramente político (pues alcanza dimensiones éticas, metafísicas y epistemológicas). Para llevar a cabo adecuadamente esta tarea, se ha dividido el trabajo en tres partes. En primer lugar, se han dedicado dos capítulos a analizar –siempre tomando como base su común liberalismo la obra de John Stuart Mill y la de Alexander Baincon la de Ortega y Gasset, en tanto que aquéllos suponen un claro antecedente del pragmatismo clásico. El punto de partida para esta parte de la investigación ha sido considerar que el liberalismo político de Ortega y de Mill no es tanto un punto departida para sus respectivas filosofías como una consecuencia de las mismas. En este sentido es en el que cabe hablar de un liberalismo en sentido amplio que trasciende el mero ámbito del derecho y la política para afectar a otras dimensiones. Asimismo, se ha señalado que Mill es en antecedente de Ortega en nociones como opinión pública y fe muerta. Respecto a Alexander Bain, se ha constatado que su obra permeó la de numerosos intelectuales españoles y extranjeros influyentes en el autor madrileño, por lo que cabe hablar de una influencia indirecta muy interesante en tanto que es quien proporciona a Peirce y James la noción de creencia...
The aim of this research is to demonstrate that Ortega y Gasset’s philosophy can be linked with North American Pragmatism -specifically with William James’ due to acommon not-only-political liberal pathos: that liberal pathos can be extended to ethics, metaphysics and epistemology. In order to achieve that objectives, the research has been divided in three parts. Firstly two chapters were focused on the analysis of the possible relations between liberals John Stuart Mill, Alexander Bain and Ortega. Both Mill and Bain are well known antecedents of pragmatists. The starting point was to understand that Mill and Ortega’s liberalism is not cause but caused by their philosophies. From this point ofview, their common liberalism goes beyond right and politics, affecting other dimensions. Additionally, Mill has been located as an Orteguian influence about the concepts of public opinion or dead faith. Concerning Alexander Bain, it has been proved that his works were read by several authors who influenced Ortega, so Bain can be considered as an indirect antecedent of the Spanish author works. Moreover, Bain was quite important because he transmitted to Peirce and James the notion of belief...
