Biography

[edit]

Ferreira was an assistant to Willard Van Orman Quine.[4] Ferreira sought to develop a systematic foundational philosophy based on Heidegger's work[5] and Schelling's philosophy of mythology.[6] Vicente founded a form of neopaganism.[7]

During his life, Vicente kept in touch and influenced thinkers like João Guimarães Rosa, Agostinho da Silva, Oswald de Andrade, Julian Marias, Miguel Reale, Saint-John Perse[8] and Vilém Flusser,[9] who said that Vicente was the only and greatest philosopher in the history of Brazil.[10]

He died in 1963 in a car accident.[11]
