CALVO CHAVEZ, Jorge Andrés. The experience of torture seen from the husserlian phenomenology. Sig. Fil [online]. 2021, vol.23, n.45, pp.74-95.  Epub 16-Fev-2022. ISSN 1665-1324.

The main objective in the article is to delve in the experience of torture from a phenomenological stance to elucidate the differences between the possible representations of death that a person can experience and the experience of torture. According to this investigation, first I explain in what sense the phenomenon of death will be understood, to give way to the relation that pain and torture have. In order to show that the terrible nature of torture it is not bound to the affective violent process that is triggered by pain, rather to the helplessness that the human being feels when it knows that he is being tortured by the other. In this way, the tortured breaks any nexus that it may have with the world. Torture does not generate a truly given experience of death, but it does provide the transcendental subject with the closest experience that he may have of his own death.

Palavras-chave : Body; Pain; Death; Transcendental Subject; Impotence.
