The problem of knowledge, as Aristotle commented in metaphysics, is
inscribed in human nature. We all desire to know and understand our
reality, the world and God who transcends it. From ancient times it
has been a study that, linked to the mystery and complexity of human
existence, has required multiple approaches. Furthermore, modern
philosophy has given – we could say excessively – a central place
to the problem of what can be known and how it is known. From this
centrality, the development of German idealism and even
existentialism, phenomenology, scientific positivism and analytical
philosophy can be understood as a response to what has been presented
with a totalizing character and that has opened new forms of address
the problem of man's relationship with reality. We live in a time
where culture increasingly denies the truth and the very desire to
seek it. Furthermore, we are confused by the diversity of approaches
and what is true in the different areas of our existence and being in
the world. Person and Knowledge acknowledges the importance of asking
the questions that exist behind knowledge in its various modalities
and aspects. This book is an in-depth discussion between researchers
which both enriches the respective visions and moves towards a more
comprehensive understanding of human knowledge and its relationship
with the human person.
