Abstract

El pensamiento de Ortega y Gasset amplía la crítica vitalista de la segunda mitad del siglo XIX que superó el mito de los <>, criticándolo como encubridor de una farsa y creador del fraude  humanístico de una tensión aporética entre vida y cultura. Los valores de la vida constituyen una afirmación  ante  el racionalismo extraviado  en  sus propios conceptos.  La razón  vital  orteguiana es  la comprensión lúcida del sencido antes que la explicación gris de estructuras. La metafísica de la vida que presenta Ortega exige ir más allá de la visión antropológica centrada en la pregunta <>, lo cual lleva a un compromiso con la vivencia de la identidad generada por la  biograf1a personal y los contenidos determinantes de la historia. La pregunta por  la  <> es una  reflexión  metafísica que  supera  los condicionantes  del  concepto << naturaleza humana>>.Ortega y Gasset broadens the vitalist's criticism of the second half of the 19th Century against << the ideals of civilization>> as a myth that cloaks the humanistic fraud of a tension between life and culture. Instead, the values of life stand before a rationalism puzzled by its own conceptions. Ortega´s << vital reason>> is the lucid understanding of meaning as compared with the dull explanation of structures. Ortega's metaphysics of life overcomes the anthropological view focused on the question <>and replaces it by the pivot question <>, which sets out a compromise with self-identity as originated in own personal life story within  the frame of general history. The question for 'human condition' is a metaphysical reflection, which lies beyond the limitations of the concept of 'human nature'.
