Description

Ariel is a philosophical essay written by the Uruguayan author Jose Enrique Rodo and published in 1922. The book is a reflection on the cultural identity of Latin America and the role of education in shaping that identity. The title is a reference to Shakespeare's character Ariel from The Tempest, who represents the imaginative and creative spirit of humanity. Rodo argues that Latin America must resist the influence of materialism and utilitarianism from Europe and instead embrace its own unique cultural values, which are rooted in idealism and spirituality. He believes that education should focus on cultivating these values and nurturing the individual's imagination and creativity. The book has been influential in shaping Latin American cultural and political thought and is considered a classic of Latin American literature.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1922 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
