“Intonating the World”to Inhabit Complexity. Phenomenology of Affects and the Crisis of Relationality

Are we capable of feeling as well as thinking about the world? Do we recognise in our inseparability from the I-world that original space-time in which the essence of our being opens us to the complexity of the real? What role does emotional feel ing play in the processes of understanding and re-understand ing of Life that is expressed in the relational triangulation I the Others-the World? The present work intends to explore the phenomenological density of emotional tones in order to see in that atmosphere of life the prerequisites for orienting human action towards an understanding of the Self with one self and in the relationship with Others and the things of the World. The fragmentation of current human complexity re quires the adoption of a wisely trans-disciplinary perspective. Education to feel represents, from my point of view, an urgent necessity because it allows us to understand the world and to inhabit the complexity of our time.
