La conquista espiritual de Europa. Miguel de Unamuno y el papel de España en Occidente: un diálogo con sus remitentes internacionales
Abstract
La relación Europa-España tiene una importante presencia en el pensamiento de Miguel de Unamuno. El intelectual vasco considera que el papel que España ha de desempeñar en el contexto occidental del momento es el de despertar al resto de naciones a una vida espiritual que él ve amenazada por una corriente central de pensamiento que se abandona únicamente a las seguridades del materialismo y el cientificismo. En su epistolario internacio- nal encontramos testimonios de cómo esta reflexión caló en diversos individuos que pasaron a establecer un diálogo en torno a estas ideas desde sus propias posturas y circunstancias. El presente artículo ofrece un estudio de estas misivas para mostrar, por un lado, la vitalidad de este plantea- miento unamuniano que ejerce su influjo más allá de las fronteras nacionales y, por otro, su vinculación con otros movimientos intelectuales de la Europa del momento.
English title: The Spiritual Conquest of Europe. Miguel de Unamuno and the Role of Spain in the Western Word: a Dialogue with his International Correspodents
The relationship between Europe and Spain is one of the main topics in Miguel de Unamuno’s thought. He considers that Spain’s role in the Western context of his time is to awaken the rest of the nations to a spiritual life, one that he finds threatened by the central current of European thought, solely devoted to the securities of materialism and scientism. His international correspondence contains various testi- monies of how this thought reached different people who dialogued around these ideas from their positions and circumstances. This article offers a study of these letters aiming to show, on the one hand, the vitali- ty of Unamuno’s approach, which exerted its influence beyond national borders and, on the other, its links with other intellectual movements in Europe at the time.
