| â Written in 1940, and available here for the first time ever in English, Samuel Ramosâ Toward a New Humanism is a prescient discussion of humanism, technology, mortality, and the tensions between the national and the universal. In addition to Sanchezâ s thoughtful introduction, his superb translation of Ramosâ s text, and the informative editorial notes running throughout, this volume is further enriched by the inclusion of translations of other, earlier, essaysâ written by Ramos and other influential philosophers from the period--on related topics as well as translations of assessments of Ramosâ s â new humanism' by other leading philosophers in mid-century Mexico. More than eighty-five years after its original publication--and in this era of renewed global conflictsâ Ramosâ s call for a profound rethinking and reshaping of modern culture and society is as timely as when it was written, and Sanchez is to be commended for making this important text available for a new generation of readers.â â Manuel Vargas and Clinton Tolley, Mexican Philosophy Lab, UC San Diego |
