Abstract

À propos of the importance given by Ortega to the environment, in this work we understandthe environment from the anthropological notion of material culture as a horizon of possibilities created by artifacts. We first examine the functionalist notion of artifacts and extend it to an analogy  between artifacts and concepts.
