El texto vital: Ortega y Zambrano

This article analyzes the complexity of the concept of vital reason, that is a fundamental dimension and it invariably conducts to the historical reason for Ortega, because is essentially narrative in the dynamic structure of historical life (or historical reason that is converted into vital). This proposal marks a correlative conceptual to understand the Zambrano’s writing. But, if Ortega describes the peculiar way of the vital reason, that can be understood only through the dynamics historical-narrative as vital text, María Zambrano lives this reason as unusual narration through the writing, the look of the inside and new method of reading of the universe.
