Conferencia sobre las pasiones en el pensamiento político

Abstract

The present article develops the opposition of two principles of the philosophical tradition of west: passion and reason. Assumed, respectively, as links of the passiveness and the action, it show the influence that both principles have exercised in the history of the western thought from the platonic philosophy and the offer of the christianity, up to the modernity. The reason, already as logos, or, as instrumental platform, it assimilates to the will of power that Nietzsche highlights in the content of the historical speeches.
