Abstract

This article dialogues with the main phenomenological postulates of the philosopher Maurice Merleau- Ponty, referring to the notion of body from a contemporary perspective. Such a look symbolizes a new understanding of the subject as himself and as a true multi-dimensionality open to others. On the journey of the story, it proposes a representation of the corporeal that allows to distance itself from the classical conceptions that install the body as a technical structure and as a necessary production for the circulation of everyday images. What is being a body? Question and argument of Merleau-Ponty conceived from the substantial relationship between man, daily life and the experience of being-in-the-world.
