Abstract

SILVA, Claudinei Aparecido de Freitas da. F. J. J. Buytendijk and the genesis of the maternal spirit. Rev. abordagem gestalt. [online]. 2018, vol.24, n.1, pp. 47-56. ISSN 1809-6867.  http://dx.doi.org/10.18065/RAG.2018v24n1.5.

The article aims fundamentally to make explicit an important anthropological concept of F. J. Buytendijk: the notion of a psychological genesis of the maternal spirit. For this, methodologically based on a descriptive phenomenological approach, it is a question of understanding the mystery of this formation beyond any biological reductionism revealing, lastly, in it, the elements of the historicity and care in their most profound infrastructure. The basic premise discussed here is the idea that this genesis never formed definitely, since it has its origin in the first encounters a subject who is feminine by pre-existential character of its corporeality and intentionality in a dialectical perspective. It is from this viewpoint, as a result achieved, that the Dutch thinker sees in such a movement, not only a principle of modern anthropology, but a state of question that opens, fruitfully, a phenomenological horizon unprecedented.
