Abstract

OROZCO C, Richard. From the notes to the scheme. Rethinking Francisco Miró Quesada and in defense of a limited and pragmatic reason. Letras [online]. 2019, vol.90, n.132, pp.188-208. ISSN 0378-4878.  http://dx.doi.org/10.30920/letras.90.132.8.

In this article, the author shows a tension within the work of Francisco Miró Quesada. A tension that appears in his fight against the skeptics and in his attempt to save a minimal reason. This tension manifests itself from the publication of the Apuntes in 1963 and then in the Outline in 2012. Obviously, the tension goes through those 50 years. However, the author also adds what could have been an outlet to this tension: the recognition and valuation of a bounded and pragmatic reason. Thus, faced with the proposal of Miró Quesada for a minimal reason with which to save the rationalist project, the author proposes a pragmatic view of reason that would be the recognition of evolutionary considerations

Keywords : Francisco Miró Quesada; Rationalism; Minimum Reason; Bounded Reason; Pragmatic Reason.
