José Ortega y Gasset on Descriptions - Dictionary of Arguments
Brocker I 192 Descriptions/Ortega y Gasset: José Ortega y Gasset (1883-1955) is a master of the art of describing cultural, spiritual and social phenomena. In his work (1), on the other hand, there are no systematic definitions of terms or reflections on the use of terms such as Wittgenstein. But what Ortega masterfully presents in his essayistic writings is a series of phenomenological depictions and descriptions of different phenomena of the time, which have a high cultural-diagnostic and socio-critical value.
