The Bodies of Community

Bernard Harbaš ; University of Zenica, Bosnai and Herzegovina

Abstract

This article deals with problematic of body in Jean-Luc Nancy’s philosophy. In contrast to Husserl and Merlau-Ponty, Nancy’s intention is to speak about plurality of corporeality as the basis of a political community. It is no longer about phenomenological, but ontological dimension of considering corporeality. In our existence’s foundation bodies and touch are the bases of our co-existence, and the corporeality is understood as a certain co-existence since it presupposes plurality and multitude.
