Corporeal experience between selfhood and otherness

Bernhard Waldenfels

pp. 43-57

Corporeality and alienness are intimately connected. Alienness presents itself in the flesh, as absence in flesh and bone (absence en chair et en os) in the formulation of Sartre, which alludes to Husserl’s presence in the flesh [leibhaftige Gegenwart] of the perceived object. In turn, a corporeal being is never entirely present to itself.
