Mário Ferreira dos Santos (January 3, 1907 – April 11, 1968) was a Brazilian philosopher. Born in Tietê, São Paulo,[1] Ferreira dos Santos was raised in Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul, and graduated in Law and Social Sciences at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul.

A prolific writer and thinker, Ferreira dos Santos published in less than fifteen years the 45-volume Encyclopedia of Philosophical and Social Sciences.[2]

Philosophical work

He created a philosophical system called "concrete philosophy." His system was based on the méthode des démonstrations géométriques, with no possibility of disagreement from its assumptions – which he called "theses". The first thesis is the very foundation of his philosophy: "There is something whilst there isn't the absolute nothing", from which he draws other theses through the methods of geometry.[3]
