Summary/Abstract: In this paper the author’s intention is to bring closer Ortega y Gasset’s particular understanding of Kant’s as well as Hegel’s philosophy. His perspective, on the one hand, reveals that crucial thing in a proper understanding of Kant’s philosophy is the fact that he was a German and a man of modern times, and on the other hand, it recognizes Kant’s “Copernican turn” to be the bravest revolution in the human history. The part of the paper which explores reception of Hegel’s philosophy shows how some of the Hegel’s ideas on philosophy of history emerge in Ortega y Gasset’s concept of historical science, that is, how they are being understood, accepted, criticized, interpreted, and modified.
