Aristotle mentioned more than two thousand years ago in his Metaphysics that "every man desires, by nature, to know." In this sense, the essence of man, of the philosopher, is knowing, the love of wisdom. Today this impulse to know has encompassed not only the mother of all knowledge, such as philosophy, but also her daughters.
This telos has been universalizing to all branches of knowledge with their diversification. Modernity brought the possibility of democratizing knowledge: not only literate people, friends of the Church or people of the nobility and aristocracy knew, but knowledge was gradually available to everyone.
This is how we arrive at the present with a complex and changing world: specializations in the different branches of knowledge and, at the same time, the impulse of techno-science presents us with new and more complex challenges day by day.
