| Summary: | This article analyzes the «corporal turn» of Philosophy in XX Century. It parts
from the revaluation of the body undertaken by Nietzsche against a tradition that
probably emphasized too much the spirituality of the soul, ripping it from the body.
A properly thought «Philosophy of the body» could bring back that reality which
modern criticism has driven so far away. To offer a way out of universal solipsism,
it is necessary a Philosophy of the body capable of rethinking Realism. MerlauPonty and Jean-Luc Nancy’s approaches to a Philosophy of corporality and of flesh
are presented, then. The next section deals with the consequences of the corporal
turn of Philosophy in relation to Ontology: it shows the way from the body to
Being. The exemplar exteriority with which Nancy defines the body allows us to
calibrate — in the sense of an immanent Philosophy which is not done, closed or
definite — an atheism free from naïve and a kind of Ontological Realism free from
abstractions or dogmatism. To close the cycle, «New Realism» approach, defended
by Markus Gabril, Ferraris and Harman, amongst others, is presented and defended.
The intention of this article is to present a way in which it is possible to formulate
a new Ontology, a new conception of Being and existence, a realistic, materialistic
ontology of the corporal being inasmuch the extra-corporal being. |
