Arleen Salles is Assistant Professor in the Department of Art, Music, and Philosophy at John Jay College of Criminal Justice, The City University of New York.
This book brings the history of Latin American philosophy to an English-speaking audience through the prominent voices of Mauricio Beuchot. Horacio Cerutti-Guldberg, Maria Luisa Femenias, Jorge J.E. Gracia, Oscar R. Marti, Leon Olive, Carlos Pereda, and Eduardo Rabossi. They argue that Spanish is not a philosophically irrelevant language and that there are original positions to be found in the work of Latin American philosophers. Part I of the book looks at why the history philosophy has not developed in Latin America. A range of theoretical issues are explored, each focusing on specific problems that have hundred the development of a solid history. Part II details the complex task of writing a history of philosophy for a region still haunted by the specter of colonialism.
