Poiesis, creation and technique in Ortega y Gasset’s philosophy
Abstract The present paper tries to expose Ortega y Gasset’s proposal around the cathegory of poiesis. This cathegory, in some way despised or at least bypassed by western philosophical tradition, is highlighted in Ortega’s philosophy thanks to the biological basis of his approach. Through the paper we will show how poiesis –under which we can encompass concepts as creation or technique– deserves an independent status in the discussions about theory and practice relationships. This claim of poiesis` importance will provide us a stronger basis to reflect upon the technological world of today.
