Description
Summary:Among the various challenges for contemporary society, which sees itself as a knowledge society, is that of questioning the validity of rationality as the preeminent way of describing human nature and of humanism as a model of anthropological development. This concern, the result of questioning and the widespread exhaustion of the modern project, finds various ways of development in our present, among which is that of a sapiential rationality, based and developed in the contributions of the School of Salamanca. This proposal has a great theoretical potential to think about the challenges of our present. To evaluate its theoretical power, the great intellectual legacy of the School of Salamanca is claimed to lay the foundations for the modern proposal of humanism and to develop it in the contemporary world. Our present is collecting the wisdom from two wells, one of a religious/spiritual nature, linked to the deployment of Christianity, another of a secular nature and linked to the deployment of scientific rationality in the modern world. If instead of seeking answers to the challenges of postmodernity from the opposition between them, we do it from their dialogue, an alternative is found to develop a sapiential rationality which is opened to forms of wisdom and intercultural communication that invigorate the idea of a humanism in force in the knowledge society. In this way, the review of the contributions of the School of Salamanca does not stop at a historiography of ideas, but rather takes them up again to think about our present.
