Abstract
The raising of a thought in Spanish, in critical terms, stumbles over the historical experience of the engagement of this language with the cultural and political project of exclusion and imperial expansion meant around 1492, as well as with the authoritarian inertias generated from then. So the relevancy of exiles in the Hispanic world, as hermeneutic fundamental key of a critical thought that answers not only opposite to those inertias, but also opposite to the alienating eurocentrismo. Special mention deserves the Spanish exile of 39, in view of his Spanish American meaning, tied in addition to the radical crisis that at the time crosses the European civilization. Works as those of Jose Gaos, Eduardo Nicol or Joaquín Xirau, among others, raised answers in this respect.
