| Sumario: | In this essay, sacrifice will be analyzed as a central reason in the cultural and moral construction of humanity. Drawing on philosophical, religious, and anthropological perspectives, it explores the implications of this ritual throughout history, from its symbolic dimensions to the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, where it assumes a role that explains, redeems, and orders social processes in relation to cultural experience. The discussion also addresses concepts such as mortal and immortal signs, representations of duality between the ephemeral and the transcendental, and the inherent links between sacrifice, anguish, and violence. Sacrifice is seen as a cultural model that connects the individual with the collective, allowing us to interpret the values and tensions of humanity. |
