Abstract

Before the arrival of Christopher Columbus to the coasts of America, some of the indigenous cultures of this hemisphere had reached a high degree of development. Among these cultures, the civilizations who settled in Mexico and Central America, produced in their cultural trajectory, interesting samples of a thought that could well be considered as pre-philosophical. In the Hispanic Caribbean, on the other hand, the colonizers did not find these antecedents. Philosophical ideas came to this Caribbean country with the arrival on its coasts of the religious orders coming from Spain as Franciscans, Dominicans and Jesuits, who brought not only their religion but also the conception that served as its theoretical foundation: the scholasticism.
