Abstract: The Clifford bundle approach to the geometry of a Riemann-Cartan-Weyl space devel- oped in a previous paper suggests by itself to interpret Einstein's gravitational theory as a field theory in the sense of Faraday, i.e., with the gravitational field living in Minkowski spacetime. Here we present such a theory. For the variables playing the role of the gravitational field the lagrangiam density is of the Yang-Mills type with gauge fixing and auto interaction terms. A brief comparison of our theory with some others field theories of the gravitational field in Minkowski spacetime is given. Some misconceptions and misanderstandings are clarified Ver menos
