Tbe genius is that of one who surely may be counted as the first Mexican philosopher of nature, a nun of the Order of Saint Jerome: Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz. Sor Juana must speak for herself, from her penetrating exercise of an independent mind within a political and religious formation which denigrated women and circumscribed reason itself. To understand this world of ours, to join in an enlightenment which would be both natural and inspired, Sor Juana clearly understood the requirements of leaming, observing, logic and reasoning. In darkness foundering Words fail the troubled mind. For who, I ask, can light me When Reason is blind? Even now, after the great steps toward liberation of women, and the substantial scientific contributions toward sheer empirical awareness of both the multiple orders ofNature and the subtle aesthetics ofindividual art and social harmony, we too in the earthly world of the 20th century must affirm what she affirmed. | | 出版日期 | Book 1995 | | 关键词 | History of Mathematics; Ludwig Wittgenstein; Natural Sciences; biology; logic; philosophy of science; scie | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-009-0109-4 | | isbn_softcover | 978-94-010-6535-1 | | isbn_ebook | 978-94-009-0109-4Series ISSN 0068-0346 Series E-ISSN 2214-7942 | | issn_series | 0068-0346 | | copyright | Kluwer Academic Publishers 1995 |
