Abstract

CESARINO, Pedro de Niemeyer. Heterotopic corporealities: human assemblies and disassemblies in the Amerindian worlds and beyond. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2016, vol.50, n.2, pp. 157-175. ISSN 0486-641X.

This paper approaches the bodily configurations that challenge the individual autonomy, which is typical of the modern West. Ways of hybridization, composition, and re-composition of bodies that point to distinct human ontological statuses are going to be a counterpoint to the individual stabilization and its consequent metaphysical assumptions, such as the nature-culture dichotomy. This paper particularly examines the Amerindian bodily regimes, which may be connected to others that produce vanishing lines and alternative complexities to the modern (complexity).

Keywords : corporeality; assembly; sacrifice; limit; individual.
