Salamanca School
Ortega y Gasset
Xavier Zurbiri

Why is there no relevant philosophy written in Spanish? Ortega y Gasset is the only one that comes to mind and even then he is only somewhat relevant in philosophy of culture.
Feels bad man, why can't we have a philosophical tradition in Spanish language like the frenchies, or the anglos or the germans

Hernández is literally uneducated peasant tier.

What's the best English translation of Don Quixote?

>What's the best Spanish translation of Shakespeare?
This is how retarded you sound

Just because you are an ignorant peasant doesn't mean Spain has not a philosophical tradition.

>Francisco Suárez
>Francisco de Vitoria
>Luis de Molina
>Domingo Báñez
>Melchor cano
>Diego de Estella
>Jovellanos

Etc.

Neruda is fucking shit, the fuck are you talking about

Most of them are escolastics which is not really appreciated nowadays.The school of Salamanca preceeds the principles of English liberalism by 100 years if you are interested
