This work initiates a dialogue between the thoughts of two authors whose exile paths crossed on so many occasions, without, however, the encounter between the two taking place.

The novelty of the following pages focuses on an approach to the philosophies of Hannah Arendt and María Zambrano, so far apart in their tone of enunciation, but parallel in their desire to stretch the limits of reason beyond what is accepted by the canons.

The centrality of the loving feeling, of the figure of the neighbor, of the creative imagination, as well as the alchemical power of the poetic saying are the touchstones on which the philosophical works of both authors stand. Two voices, then, that dialogue about the meaning of the reflective act from the inalienable condition of being women.

Inspired by the reflection of two exiles in times of darkness, this work becomes essential by proposing an oblique view of the crisis, emphasizing a hopeful response that prioritizes creation from ruin and the heroism of the extraordinary gesture of the common subject .
