Abstract

Starting from an anti-fundationalist interpretation of Ortega’s Idea de principio en Leibniz, this paper aims to examine the influence of German philosophy on this work. The analysis highlights the continuity and pervasiveness of Marburg neo-Kantian theories, and targets above all at exposing the elaboration of a post-metaphysical thought in the abovementioned work.
