On the Trail of a Catalan Universal Thinker

An Introduction to the Thought and Works of José Ferrater Mora

Abstract

The main goal of this paper is to reconstruct José Ferrater Mora’s intellectual trajectory. Ferrater Mora is an important Catalan exiled thinker and he has a big influence in the contemporary Spanish society and in the history of universal philosophy. This article wants to demonstrate the importance of analysing not only his philosophical books and essays but also his literary and cinematographic works. At the same time, it wants to emphasize how Ferrater Mora’s life and works are proofs of the possibility of coexistence between local and universal culture in the same author.
