"Sólo sé que no sé nada. Pienso, luego existo. Todo lo sólido se desvanece en el aire. Dios ha muerto. Por medio de frases como esas, disparadores que estimulan el pensamiento, Darío Sztajnszrajber se propone sacar a la filosofía de los formatos que la hacen excluyente. Al hacerlo nos lleva a una conversación alucinada y alucinante con once ideas clásicas, tan pequeñas como para caber en un tuit y a la vez tan interminables como las búsquedas existenciales.Incómodo y complejo como su materia misma, este libro inclasificable--es ensayo filosófico, y es también novela--consagra a su autor como un explorador impertinente. Sztajnszrajber puede explicar y a la vez contradecir a filósofos como Aristóteles, Descartes, Marx, Nietzsche o Foucault e invitarnos a perdernos en la riqueza de sus ideas. Su historia comienza con un hombre que escapa y, al descender a un subte porteño, se encuentra azarosamente con un crimen del poder. Entre las huellas reconocibles de una república precaria, la trama mezcla la sangre y el amor, la historia y la esperanza, la represión estatal y la resistencia ciudadana.En Filosofía en 11 frases, su primer libro con Paidós, Sztajnszrajber lleva la filosofía a los lectores que quieren pensar sin ser subestimados. Y los desafía, socráticamente, con una convicción: todos podemos hacer filosofía aunque no lo sepamos."--

El filósofo que ha sacado a la filosofía de la caverna. Darío Sztajnszrajber es el nuevo fenómeno en el mundo de la filosofía. En sus charlas al aire libre, en sus conferencias, logra convocar a miles de personas, como si fuera una especie de showman o un rockero. Su objetivo es llevar a los medios y a la calle lo que hace en el aula. Y lo consigue, como en este libro, que se ha convertido en un best seller en Latinoamérica. El autor no tiene necesidad (o quizá sí, quién sabe) de que «trempemos» con la filosofía, como Merlí, pero desde luego sí la acerca a los lectores, combinándola con una trama de corte novelesco, como si de una serie de televisión o un thriller cinematográfico se tratara. «Solo sé que no sé nada.» «Pienso, luego existo.» «Todo lo sólido se desvanece en el aire.» «Dios ha muerto.» Por medio de frases como estas, disparadores que estimulan el pensamiento, Darío Sztajnszrajber se propone sacar a la filosofía de los formatos que la hacen excluyente. Al hacerlo nos lleva a una conversación alucinada y alucinante con once ideas clásicas, tan pequeñas como para caber en un tuit y a la vez tan interminables como las búsquedas existenciales. Una obra que demuestra que en ciertos razonamientos, en determinado tipo de análisis o de interrogación, todos estamos haciendo filosofía aunque no nos demos cuenta.

Philosophical realism has taken a number of different forms, each applied to different topics and set against different forms of idealism and subjectivism. Maurizio Ferraris's Manifesto of New Realism takes aim at postmodernism and hermeneutics, arguing against their emphasis on reality as constructed and interpreted. While acknowledging the value of these criticisms of traditional, dogmatic realism, Ferraris insists that the insights of postmodernism have reached a dead end. Calling for the discipline to turn its focus back to truth and the external world, Ferraris's manifesto—which sparked lively debate in Italy and beyond—offers a wiser realism with social and political relevance.
