NATURE AND SELF-INTERPRETATION
Keywords:
Philosophical Anthropology, Hermeneutics, Charles Taylor, Paul Ricoeur, Alasdair MacIntyre, Martin Heidegger, Arne NaessAbstract
In this article we explore the two poles of identity constitution: nature and selfinterpretation. Begining with the arguments exposed by Alasdair MacIntyre for a philosophical anthropology with roots in a post-darwinian Philosopohy of Biology; followed by the emphasis of Paul Ricoeur against the Analitical Philosophy of personal identity and in favor of a human conception that takes into consideration the earthly roots of corporality; and in accordance with the sui generis ecological conception that we can inferred from the notions of language, Lichtung and the fourfold that we find in the later works of Martin Heidegger, in resonance with the Deep Ecology of Arne Naes, we analyse the notion of human being as self-interpreting animal defended by the Canadian Charles Taylor.
