| Sumario: | The work aims to investigate the constitution of love as a discursive sociological object. This point of view has its theoretical framework in the theories of M. Bajtín and M. Foucault who consider discourse as a social fact (Bajtín), distancing themselves from linguistics to obtain a more extensive vision of discursiveness (Foucault). We also consider the material effects on the social constitution of the subjects. These effects are related to two aspects of social languages: their performative functioning and their role as models. Although we are not going to dwell on the implementation of these concepts, we want to underline their importance as a framework for this reflection. The final intention of the article is to present a positive idea of love passions, thinking of them as a thermometer of social spaces that we provisionally call public spaces, to reinvict emotions that from certain positions of feminism are viewed and criticized negatively. With this we want to point out, on the one hand, the importance of the subject in the context of a certain culture and, on the other hand, to mark the historical limitation of the concept of love. |
