Plan filosófico
Read the quotation and then go to the multiple choice question
¡Ah, claro!, si los hubiera. Además no tengo
preparación científica. Se estudia de mala
manera.
En mi tiempo pasaba lo mismo, dijo Iturrioz. Los profesores
no sirven más que para el embrutecimiento metódico de la
juventud estudiosa. Es natural. El español todavía no
sabe enseñar; es demasiado fanático, demasiado vago y
casi siempre demasiado farsante. Los profesores no tienen más
finalidad que cobrar su sueldo y luego pescar pensiones para pasar
el verano.
The novel's main preoccupation is to improve the poor standards of scientific education in Spain.
- Strongly agree
- I do not think that this judgement fairly represents the balance of interest in the novel. True, the poor standard of scientific education forms a recurring motif, but it does not consitute the main thrust of the novel, which is towards philosophical issues.

- Disagree
- Although there is a strong current of criticism against the poor standards of scientific education in Spain, it could not be described as the main preoccupation of the novel. The educational theme leads into a deeper and more universal concern about the application of scientific knowledge to life.
