La metafilosofía de los pragmatistas clásicos

in this paper i argue that the metaphilosophy of pragmatists is the most important contribution of these philosophers to the history of philosophy and is also what distinguishes them from other philosophers. the classic american philosophers (peirce, james, and dewey) and the hispanic philosophers, ortega y gasset and risieri frondizi, proposed that philosophy must start from experience. after explaining what it means to take experience as the starting point, i examine the reasons that pragmatists philosophers have for holding the view that experience should be the starting point if philosophy is to be empirical and relevant.
