Sobre o autor
Miguel de Unamuno (1864-1936) was a profoundly influential Spanish philosopher, novelist, poet, and playwright, recognized for interweaving existential concerns with national identity. His multifaceted body of work bridges literary and philosophical discourses, often addressing themes of individual existence within the context of social and political turmoil. Unamuno served as rector of the University of Salamanca and is heralded as a key figure in the 98 generation, a group of writers who grappled with Spain’s moral and cultural crisis at the turn of the 20th century. His seminal work ‘Tragic Sense of Life’ (1913), epitomizes his philosophical thought, presenting a deep examination of the human struggle for faith and immortality against the backdrop of rational skepticism. This text remains a cornerstone in existential literature, illuminating Unamuno’s contemplation of the human condition and spiritual anguish. His distinctive literary style, characterized by introspective prose and a passionate, sometimes agonistic approach to philosophical inquiry, has solidified his standing as an essential voice in early twentieth-century literature and thought.
