  • Jimmy Hernández Marcelo Università degli Studi di Torino, Italia
Keywords: Postmodernism, Realism, Hermeneutics, Ontology, Epistemology

Abstract

New realism emerges as a response to the excesses and errors of postmodern philosophy. The main representative is an Italian philosopher educated in hermeneutics and post-structuralism, namely Maurizio Ferraris. In this sense, the main purpose of the present study is to understand the meaning of this realistic turn of the philosophy of the 21st century through the philosophical proposal of Ferraris. The starting point will be the emergence of post-modernity and its consolidation as a philosophical movement. Secondly, we enter the debate on the emergence of the New Realism to clarify its genetic process. Thirdly, we present the main contentious issues between Postmodernity and New Realism. Finally, we project the future of the philosophical transformation linked to Maurizio Ferraris.
