Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the profound and enduring philosophical question of what it means to know. Examining the limitations of individual experience, the author explores how knowledge can act as a bridge, connecting us to a world beyond ourselves. Through a critical analysis of major historical philosophical systems, from the empiricism of Locke and Hume to the rationalism of Descartes and Leibniz, the book unveils hidden assumptions that have hindered our understanding of knowledge. It argues that these traditional approaches have created a false separation between the knowing subject and the known object, leading to skepticism and an impoverished view of reality. Instead, the author proposes a new way of understanding knowledge, one grounded in the direct and immediate presence of the object in consciousness. This "intuitional" theory emphasizes the crucial role of discrimination and comparison in the act of knowing, showing how we move from vague awareness to increasingly complex and differentiated judgments about the world. Ultimately, the book challenges us to reconsider the very nature of truth, universality, and the relationship between the individual and the universal. By bridging the gap between knowledge and existence, it offers a revitalized vision of human understanding and its potential to connect us to the richness and complexity of the real.
