Abstract
RUIZ PEREZ, Guillermo. A “New” Perspectivism? Delusion and Truth from the point of view of the New Realism. Rev. Asoc. Esp. Neuropsiq. [online]. 2023, vol.43, n.144, pp.91-107. Epub Jan 15, 2024. ISSN 2340-2733. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/s0211-57352023000200005.
The concept of delusion was widely discussed in the Psychiatry and Phenomenology of the 20th century. In contrast, its relation to truth in its philosophical development appears to be quite elusive. Jaspers warned about its futility in the definition of delusion. Nevertheless, from a practical perspective seems to play a meaningful, efficient role as a diagnostic indication. We pursue an investigation about delusion and truth in the light of Markus Gabriel's New Realism and Ortega y Gasset's Perspectivism. Finally, their relation will be decided in its value for life.
