It's an aficionado. It tends to be an intellectual torero. As a philosopher, there are so many connections to life. That is why it is always criticized. But he always talks instead of silence and philosophy. On everything: Love, women, Spain, Anne de Noailles' poem, Roman Empire, population explosion and what else.
A deportee, but a Spanish about the country's past, today and tomorrow with sincerity: a world person who feels himself at home in Europe. Because Gasset, a lover, a concert viewer, a bullfighting guru, a magazine reader at the same time.
His works include: Adán el parasío (1910: Adem Cennette), Meditaciones del Quijote (1914), El tema de nuestro tiempo (1923: Our Calligraphy), España invertebrada (1922: Inverted Spain), La Rebelión de las masas (1929: The Standing of the Masses).
In 1957 a long section of his great work, which Gasset did not finish, was also published in the name of El hombre y la gente (Men and Men). Ortega y Gasset's first book in Turkic came out of Metis Publications in 1992 as a selection under the name of Historical Depression and Man.
