I10-R10-article-197212019-07-27T12:16:02Z A violent alteration. About ethics and philosophy of religion Una alteración violenta. Sobre ética y filosofía de la religión Fonti, Diego Aballay Filosofía de la religión Ética Alteridad Subjetividad Violencia. Aballay Philosophy of Religion Ethics Alterity Subjectivity Violence In a context characterized by the revival of religions, all too often in their most questionable aspects, it is worthwhile to think from the perspective of philosophy of religion which is the structure characteristic of that experience, in order to both elaborate a critique and recuperate its possibilities for a responsible and free relationship with others. Beginning with the short story and film called “Aballay, the fearless man”, I propose to research what Michel de Certeau and Jean Luc Nancy understand as the “essence” of the religious experience: the possibility of holding unto a relationship with unconditional alterity. Unlike the “domesticated” versions of religious experience, this relationship does not exclude violence, but incorporates it, allowing for multiple resignifications, which can be destructive as well as respectful and responsible for that alterity. For this research I will engage first of all the relationship between the desire of the Other and ethical violence, as it can be seen in Aballay’s transformation. After that, I will study the subjectivity of whoever is “hostage” of this experience of relationship with the Other. Finally I will engage the issue of the possibility of universalization of this experience, in order to show the tension between the impossibility and need of universalization, which is inherent to every ethical and religious experience. En un contexto signado por el retorno de lo religioso, a menudo en sus facetas más cuestionables, vale pensar desde la filosofía de la religión cuál es la estructura que caracteriza esa experiencia, para poder, a partir de allí, esbozar una crítica y recuperar sus posibilidades para una relación responsable y libre con los demás. A partir del cuento y el film “Aballay, el hombre sin miedo”, se propone indagar aquello que Michel de Certeau y Jean Luc Nancy entienden como “esencia” de lo religioso: la posibilidad de sostener una relación con la alteridad incondicional. A diferencia de versiones “domesticadas” de lo religioso, esta relación no excluye la violencia, sino que la incorpora, permitiendo múltiples resignificaciones, tanto destructivas como respetuosas y responsables de la alteridad. Para esta indagación se abordará, en primera instancia, la relación entre deseo del Otro y violencia ética, como pueden verse en la transformación de Aballay. En segundo lugar, se estudiará la subjetividad de quien es “rehén” de esa experiencia de relación con el Otro. Finalmente se abordará la cuestión de la posible universalización de la experiencia, para mostrar la tensión inherente a toda experiencia ética y toda experiencia religiosa, entre la imposible y necesaria tendencia a la universalización.

In a context characterized by the revival of religions, all too often in their most questionable aspects, it is worthwhile to think from the perspective of philosophy of religion which is the structure characteristic of that experience, in order to both elaborate a critique and recuperate its possibilities for a responsible and free relationship with others. Beginning with the short story and film called “Aballay, the fearless man”, I propose to research what Michel de Certeau and Jean Luc Nancy understand as the “essence” of the religious experience: the possibility of holding unto a relationship with unconditional alterity. Unlike the “domesticated” versions of religious experience, this relationship does not exclude violence, but incorporates it, allowing for multiple resignifications, which can be destructive as well as respectful and responsible for that alterity. For this research I will engage first of all the relationship between the desire of the Other and ethical violence, as it can be seen in Aballay’s transformation. After that, I will study the subjectivity of whoever is “hostage” of this experience of relationship with the Other. Finally I will engage the issue of the possibility of universalization of this experience, in order to show the tension between the impossibility and need of universalization, which is inherent to every ethical and religious experience. |
