Resumen de Ortega y "El Quijote": los primeros apuntes
- español
El trabajo examina los primeros juicios conocidos de Ortega sobre Cervantes y el Quijote, contenidos en diversas cartas de su epistolario con Unamuno y Navarro Ledesma, así como un artículo inédito que data de sus años de estancia en Alemania. Atribuye a Cervantes una teoría de la "simpatía", que construye el mundo desde la imaginación. Tal doctrina parece guardar estrecha relación con otras ideas de J.F. Herbart, filósofo y educador alemán cuyas ideas expuso con profundidad Ortega en 1914.

This article analyzes Ortega-y-Gasset's early ideas on Cervantes and his Don Quixote, as they appear in some of his letters to Unamuno and Navarro Ledesma, as well as in a posthumously published article. All these documents belong to his stay in Germany, in the first decade of the 20th century. According Ortega, Cervantes would have considered imagination as the way man organizes objetive data into a conscious world; in doing so, he could largely rely on previous philosophical views suggested by German philosopher J.F. Herbart, whose philosophy was deeply studied by Ortega in 1914.
