Abstract

During the years 1955-1965 the Argentinian writer Leopoldo Marechal wrote several works that showed a deep concern for the contemporary technique and science. Marechal thought that science and technique of Modern Age are the product of one particular rationality, known as “calculating reason”. This paper aims to analyze main characters of Marechal’s critique to this kind of rationality.
