La propuesta de Heidegger en Ser y tiempo de comprender la existencia humana desde la categoría de la temporalidad cautivó a Watsuji. Pero, ¿por qué no hacer lo mismo con la espacialidad, otra de las categorias radicales de la existencia? En la presente obra, que bien podria titularse Ser y espacio, Watsuji trata de responder a dicha cuestion. La geografia y el clima conforman la realidad individual y social (relaciones con la naturaleza, caracter, arte, religion), es decir, su sistema de actitudes y valores. Watsuji analiza los tres grandes espacios climatico-geograficos que, segun el, configuran las principales culturas: Asia es el reino del monzon, de la humedad; Oriente medio es el reino del desierto y de la sequedad, determinante en la cultura judia y arabe; y Europa es la dehesa, una sintesis de ambas, donde la relacion con la naturaleza es menos conflictiva.

Giuseppe Dematteis es uno de los geógrafos más originales del último cuarto de siglo xx e inicios de siglo xxi. Original por su aportación teórica y metodológica que, sin estar desconectada de las grandes corrientes de pensamiento, constituye una reflexion a veces rompedora, a veces anticipatoria de debates sobre la naturaleza del espacio, la significacion del territorio y la funcion de la geografia. Original, tambien, porque esta aportacion no la entiende, como sucede a menudo, como una practica alejada de la realidad socioespacial en la que vive sino, al contrario, como una condicion para el empeño civil de la geografia.Una geografia util, comprometida con la revelacion de futuros posibles, y mejores, para la humanidad y para los seres no humanos. Y para ello, una disciplina tambien util, abierta y comprometida con otros campos de la ciencia.

Este libro explora el estrecho de Gibraltar, un enclave geográfico único donde confluyen el Atlántico y el Mediterráneo, Europa y Çfrica, levante y poniente. Territorio de frontera y paisaje mítico desde la Antiguedad, ha sido recorrido por geografos, naturalistas, viajeros y artistas a lo largo del tiempo. A traves de distintos itinerarios, rutas del levante y miradores destacados, este libro invita al lector del siglo XXI a descubrir los valores paisajisticos y culturales que aun perduran en esta zona estrategica. Para ello, se emplea una metodologia hermeneutica en tres fases: una interpretacion inicial basada en el conocimiento cientifico y geografico existente; la incorporacion de nuevas miradas, incluyendo discursos culturales y locales; y, finalmente, la aportacion de la experiencia sensible del interprete. Asi, este libro logra identificar y sistematizar los valores mas relevantes del Estrecho, proponiendo recorridos que permiten una comprension profunda de este paisaje fronterizo dominado por el viento.
