Abstract

WALDENFELS, Bernhard. El sitio corporal de los sentimientos. Sig. Fil [online]. 2006, vol.8, n.15, pp.129-150. ISSN 1665-1324.

The aim of this article is to point out that feelings not only have a place, but also a time. The course of this investigation points out how feelings have been, in many cases, valuated and depreciated. However, a reapropiation of them can be done inside a phenomenological frame thru the analysis of the pathos as an event that goes beyond intentional behavior and according to rules. Thus, we can think the body as the locus of feelings. The author, in this manner, proposes that he who speaks of their feelings does this from his own perspective and thus emphasizes the emotive dimension of feelings in relation to the importance of corporality.

Keywords : corporality; phatos; epoche; phenomenology; feelings.
