FOUCAULT Y SARTRE MUERTE DEL HOMBRE Y ONTOLOGÍA DEL PRESENTE

Abstract

After the publication of The Order of Things, at the late sixties, a great controversy took place, in which a number of authors were involved and a wide range of subjects were discussed. Two were however its main actors: Sartre and Foucault, and two its main fields of battle: the death of Man and the conception of History. We will try to retrace the principal points of the polemic and show how, ultimately, two ways of understanding the Man, Philosophy and, finally, Politics were being confronted – two views of the word, after all.
