Carlos Brandt

Venezuelan philosopher (1875-1964)

Carlos Brandt is remembered for arguments the next generation could not ignore.

The record lists Carlos Brandt as Venezuelan philosopher (1875-1964).

Carlos Brandt was born at Miranda in 1875. His recorded nationality is Venezuela.

Around the turn of the twentieth century philosophy split into traditions that largely stopped reading one another.

The recorded fields of work are naturopathy and vegetarianism.

A philosophical position survives not by being proved but by resisting every attempt to dispose of it.

That the work was done from Venezuela matters: philosophical traditions, institutions and the language of publication have never been evenly distributed.

Carlos Brandt died in 1964, aged 89. The arguments remain in print, which is the form in which philosophy survives.
