Abstract
The present text discusses the portrait of José Gaos that Antonio Zirión offers us in his recent book El sentido de la filosofía from two view-points: first, Gaos as a philosophy professor and, second, Gaos as a philos-opher interested in the unresolved tension between phenomenology and metaphysics and in metaphysics as a problematic discipline in itself. The text also discusses the place that Gaos assigned to “arrogance” as an essential as-pect of philosophical activity and the idea that philosophical statements are, in the end, nothing but the expression of a personal and unique perspective.
