'A much needed and insightful introspective on the figure of one of the most original female thinkers in Spain's twentieth century. Beatriz Caballero Rodriguez takes a major step towards providing a compelling and innovative analysis of Zambrano's critical views against the dominance of discursive reason.'- Dr Jesus Rodero, University of Strathclyde. 'A very welcome and compelling inquiry into Maria Zambrano's poetic reason and thought, especially its hitherto little-studied political dimension, and its main drivers, in light of her biography. This is a lucid study of one of Europe's most original but often overlooked or misunderstood philosophers, whose thought as Emil Cioran would have it and as Beatriz Caballero so elegantly demonstrates actually transcends philosophy.' - Professor Alexis Grohmann, University of Edinburgh
