The topic of this essay is the interconnection between the relevance of the relational dimension in human life and the co-ontology elaborated by Jean-Luc Nancy. In this sense, through the analysis of certain conceptual junctures such as the question of the body and its organs, sexual desire, and touching as a relational experience, Nancy’s philosophical production developed during his lifetime is reread as the manifestation of a philosophical attitude that exalts the vitality of bodies and, in this sense, shows itself as an irrepressible push toward an ontology of “being-toward-life”.

Abstract

The topic of this essay is the interconnection between the relevance of the relational dimension in human life and the co-ontology elaborated by Jean-Luc Nancy. In this sense, through the analysis of certain conceptual junctures such as the question of the body and its organs, sexual desire, and touching as a relational experience, Nancy’s philosophical production developed during his lifetime is reread as the manifestation of a philosophical attitude that exalts the vitality of bodies and, in this sense, shows itself as an irrepressible push toward an ontology of “being-toward-life”.
