CLEMENTE, Fabio Di. The fetus and the search for the Self. A critical dialogue with Merleau-Ponty. Educação e Filosofia [online]. 2016, vol.30, n.60, pp.821-858. ISSN 1982-596x.  https://doi.org/10.14393/REVEDFIL.issn.0102-6801.v30n60a2016-p821a858.

In the light of prenatal life, we radicalise the rehabilitation of the body argued by Merleau-Ponty. We attribute to the fetus the participation in the phenomenon of the “self”. In particular, we rehabilitate the fetus through the analysis of the processuality which constitutes it without a principle previously given. The principal purpose is to think about the appearance of the fetus criticizing the privileges that Merleau-Ponty points to in the postnatal world.

Palabras clave : Fetus; Self; Body; Flesh; Merleau-Ponty.
