...So I've finally gotten around to reading some Jose Ortega y Gassett, "The Revolt of the Masses" specifically....I was hoping for some more of his proto-existentialist "life as radical freedom in given conditions" philosophy, but most of this book would make a good bridge between Nietzsche's railings against the "last man" and The Frankfurt

Everything in the world is strange and marvellous to well-open eyes.

Jose is right on that score...'course his reverence of the intellectual and his "well-open eyes" only extends to the preserve of intellectuals as some rarefied breed apart from the majority....I haven't read enough to see if he thinks that's the case only now and doesn't need to be in the future, or if he just has wet dreams of aristocracy like Nietzsche.....
