Del generare e del nascere. Il “minimo antropologico” necessario alla bioetica
The ambiguity and indecisiveness surrounding the most recent debate on bioethics render it necessary for a sort of meta-bioethics, namely a critical reflection on the methods and contents of bioethics in light of the ends or results that it proposes. The main functions of meta-bioethics is to build up the bond of ethics with that of anthropology . Therefore, a unity is regained between the two interrogatives – “Who is man ?” and “Who must man become ?” The separation of both is making it impossible to reconcile individual rights, ethical principles and public reasoning. Of all the aspects of human life, the questions concerning birth are those that have the most radical transformation for new biomedical techniques. However, on this theme one acknowledges an anthropological gap. While on the part of the feminist reflections and philosophical anthropology there has been vast consideration in the category of death, very little attention has been given to the content and to the implications of the experiences of generating and of being born. For this motive, the anthropological importance of these experiences risk being distorted due to a biomedical reductionism or due to the rule of individual desires. To explore the human significance of birth and generation, in their characteristics of experience and relation, becomes thus a task that cannot be denounced in philosophical anthropology and a contribution that bioethics cannot ignore.
LaDeleuziana, 2021
In Difference and Repetition, Deleuze presents a unique biophilosophical project, which culminates in a new concept of living organisms. But, to fathom the nature of these organisms it is necessary to go back to the "letter and spirit" of the Deleuzian ontology. Contrary to the most popular interpretations, I maintain that the ontology of Difference and Repetition revolves around the notion of difference of intensity, which displaces the abused concept of the virtual and affirms the necessary implication of the processes of individuation in actual entities. Clarifying this point will lead me directly to the goal of understanding the peculiar nature of living organisms. Since the actual is anchored in intensity through a relation of implication, the real constitution of organisms is revealed as an "intensive actuality" which assembles two asymmetrical tendencies: one of intensive depotentiation, one of actual organization. As an assemblage, however, the organism needs to constantly negotiate its consistency and be sustained by an ethics of intensity that teaches it to simultaneously "affirm even the lowest" and "not explicate itself too much".
Zoonosi ed evoluzione dell’uomo
La storia dell'umanità è stata caratterizzata da numerose epidemie letali, chiamate genericamente pesti o pestilenze, di cui sono rimaste tracce nelle testimonianze storiche. La coevoluzione ospite-parassita è un aspetto dell’evoluzione dell’uomo e dei microrganismi da lungo tempo indagata. Nonostante siano ormai descritte oltre duecento patologie di origine zoonotica (alcune delle quali note da secoli), le zoonosi rappresentano ancora una minaccia significativa per la salute pubblica (Matassa, 2007). Seppur difficilmente riscontrabili su reperti di natura archeologia o paleoantropologia, tali malattie accompagnano da sempre l’uomo in una sorta di bilanciamento ecoepidemiologico.
Antropogenesi ctonia: due questioni testuali
1997
As well as the title underlines, two open questions are contempled: one looks at the lesson terrea in Verg. Georg. 2, 341 preferred to ferreu, the other regard the interpretation of the ex terra in Cic. De nat. deor. 2, 140 that mostly is translated ccfrom the earthw, meant as surface. In the first way ferreu be unsuitable for the prirnitive humanity, described as fragile by Virgil and in the other way it can be interpreted as ccthe man risen from the earth wombs, according to the chthonian anthropogenesis theory.
