Resumo: The article presents the notion of corporeality, relating to the dimensions of agency, of sexual difference and sickness. The author comes from the phenomenological anthropology to perform what he calls a cultural and phenomenological analysis of the Self. He contrasts the notion of the bodyas material object with the corporeality as flesh mutually shared, implicated and never completely anonymous. This notion of corporeality reframes the body as a source of the existence and location of the world experience. The article constructs a scheme of body-world relations and explore their implications for the concept of embodiment. Articulates the notion of agency since Merleau-Ponty, Bourdieu and Foucault and the notion of sexual difference from feminist theories in Luce Irigaray, Julia Kristeva and Maxine Sheets-Johnstone. In the final section the author completes the outline with a discussion of three diseases – phantom limb, chronic fatigue and environmental illness – as an illustration of different dynamics of embodiment.

O autor parte da antropologia fenomenológica para realizar o que denomina de uma fenomenologia cultural do Self. Contrasta uma noção de corpo enquanto objeto material à corporeidade como carne compartilhada, mutuamente implicada e nunca completamenteanônima que ressignifica o corpo como fonte da existência e local da experiência no mundo. O artigo constrói um esquema das relações corpo-mundo e suas implicações para o conceito de corporeidade. Para isto articula a noção de agência desde Merleau-Ponty, Bourdieu e Foucault; a diferença sexual desde as teorias feministas em Luce Irigaray, Julia Kristeva e Maxine Sheets-Johnstone. Na seção final completa o esquema com uma discussão sobre três doenças – membro fantasma, fadiga crônica e doença ambiental – como ilustração de diferentes dinâmicas da corporeidade.Editora da PUCRS - ediPUCRS2013-10-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/faced/article/view/15523Educação; Vol. 36 No. 3 (2013); 292-305Educação; Vol. 36 Núm. 3 (2013); 292-305Educação; v. 36 n. 3 (2013); 292-3051981-25820101-465Xreponame:Educaçãoinstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)instacron:PUC_RSporhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/faced/article/view/15523/10187Csordas, Thomasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2013-12-10T16:51:17Zoai:ojs.revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br:article/15523Revistahttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/faced/indexONGhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/faced/oaieditora.periodicos@pucrs.br||reveduc@pucrs.br1981-25820101-465Xopendoar:2013-12-10T16:51:17Educação - Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)false
