Castilian language of victors, XIIth-XVth centuries, Infertility philosophicalAbstract
If Castilian was the first ordinary language to be employed in philosophy since the 12th century; if Spain was the first modern state since the end of the 15th century; if –in line with its early modern state-building– Spain had the first modern grammar conceived of with the explicit purpose of imposing Castilian as the language of “victors” on “other pilgrim languages” of “subjugated” peoples; if Spain wrote the first page of the modern Era –and apparently of modern social and political thought– with the “conquest and destruction” of American indigenous peoples; why then the infertility of modern philosophical Castilian? The aim of this work is to analyze these different “topics” on the alleged infertility of modern philosophical Spanish thinking.
