Document Details : Title: Technology as the Theme of our Time Subtitle: The Role of Technology in Ortega y Gasset's Philosophical Project Author(s): ALONSO, Marcos Journal: Tijdschrift voor Filosofie Volume: 87 Issue: 1 Date: 2025 Pages: 103-126 DOI: 10.2143/TVF.87.1.3294640 Abstract : This article focuses on the presence of technology in Ortega y Gasset’s work, arguing that technology is one of the main themes of his production and that his philosophy can be understood as a philosophy of technology. To this end, it shows how the problem of technology does not appear exclusively in Meditation on Technique but can be found in numerous earlier and later texts. Ortega y Gasset’s novel conception of technology or technique is thus revealed as a thematic nucleus that constitutes one of the keys to his philosophy. A better understanding of his proposal can help us to understand and respond to the challenges of our technologized world. |
