SILVA, Luiz Carlos Santos da. Antiedipian criticisms of anthropocentric modernity: a cannibalistic metaphysics devouring machine men. Educação e Filosofia [online]. 2022, vol.36, n.76, pp.445-480.  Epub 29-Ene-2024. ISSN 1982-596X.  https://doi.org/10.14393/revedfil.v36n76a2022-60180.

This paper seeks to present how the mythological matter of the Oedipus and the Sphinx would have regulated the consideration of the natural and political sciences of modern philosophers such as Bacon, Hobbes and Descartes. Starting from a consideration of modern science in the record of a rationalization of the myth of Oedipus and the Sphinx in Bacon's philosophy, the work seeks to show how modern scientific thought could be understood as a type of knowledge of man about himself and about his own ancestral culture. In the record of a scientific modernity understood as a type of rationalization of myths, this paper seeks to show at last how Deleuze and Guattari's anti-Oedipal criticisms of modernity seem to have influenced a cannibalistic metaphysics inaugurated by Viveiros de Castro as a critique of narcissism individualist of epistemological and political colonialism bequeathed to the history of philosophy and to our own scientific culture.

Palabras clave : Modernity; Anti-Oedipus; Philosophical Anthropology; Cannibal Metaphysics.
