Review of book: López Jiménez, C.A. (2018). El terreno común de la escritura: una historia de la producción filosófica en Colombia. Editorial Javeriana

Abstract

This review analyzes the book of the young historian and philosopher Carlos Arturo López Jiménez, El terreno común de la escritura highlighting his method to understand the practice of writing philosophy in Colombia between 1892 and 1910. In that sense, more than a criticism of this book, it is an invitation to read it carefully to distance oneself form the limits imposed by professional philosophers who, as judges, judge the past and the very existence of philosophy in Colombia and by extension in Latin America.
