Description
Summary:The essay discusses the ideas by four writers who welcome the World War One, even if through different ideological paths. Unamuno, from "aliadôfilas" and hard anti-German positions, gives the war a regenerating function capable to bring humankind beyond the dominion of technology. The pages on war by Ortega y Gasset suggest foreign policy primacy thesis, insisting on role in international scene as instrument of internal cohesion. Vázquez de Mella, proceeding from traditionalist ideological principles, hopes that a German victory against England lays the basis for a restoration of imperial Spain. The neutralism in d'Ors foreshadows the advent of a new Europe, where Catalogna can achieve leading position in the transition from liberalism to imperialism.
