Abstract

El concepto del yo en la metafísica moderna del siglo XVII: de la autoconciencia de Tommaso Campanella al Cogito cartesiano. Éstas son las coordenadas entre las que es posible indagar el concepto del yo en la edad moderna. El presente artículo, por tanto, intenta analizar las opciones filosóficas de estos dos autores capitales en la formación de la filosofía moderna, para poder preguntarse, finalmente: cuál es el precio que pagamos a la modernidad? La presunta afirmación "solipsista" de la subjetividad induce a que la realidad pierda interés; más aún, a que se pierda la realidad misma produciendo -como decía Hannah Arendt en Vida activa, citando a Whitehead- "el efecto del retraerse del sentido común". The concept of ego in the modern metaphysics of the XVII century: from the self-consciousness of Thomas Campanella to the cogito of Descartes. This are the coordinates within which it is possible to investigate the concept of the ego in the modern age. The present article, therefore, tries to analyse the philosophical choices of these two great authors of modern philosophy, to be finally able to ask: Which is the price we pays to modernity? This alleged "solipsistic" assertion of subjectivity in way encourages the loss of interest in reality; even more, the loss of reality itself producing -as Hannah Arendt stated in The Human Condition, quoting Whitehead - "the effect of withdrawing from the common sense"
