Summary/Abstract: In this study, we define philosophical discourse as one of the dominant discourses of literary modernism, whose specific authorial expressions depend primarily on the concentration on man and his inner world. This subjective world was strongly marked by the disintegration of universalism, which resulted in value relativism and the search for new “truths” capable of establishing a lost order (on a transcendental or rational basis).
