Abstract

BLASSI, Fernando Martin-De. Space and intelligence in Arturo Ardao: his contribution to an American philosophy of culture. Tópicos [online]. 2019, n.38, pp.94-113. ISSN 1666-485X.

This work addresses the understanding that A. Ardao develops about space and its primacy with respect to time. In other words, time as a subsidiary of space, as well as reason as a subsidiary of intelligence. This same categorical investment bases the occupation that our author assigns to the exercise of the Latin American philosopher as a task based on a specific geography, delimited by cultural parameters and starring a subject that is not a rational substance, but a biophysical entity in which the history as geo-history closes, giving way to the development of an astro-history from the conquest of outer space.

Keywords : Arturo Ardao; space; intelligence; Latin American thought.
