Abstract

The essay briefly explores some of the consequences of the primitiveness of the concept of a person to understand personal corporality. It revises some of the marked positions since the publication of P.F. Strawson’s Individuals. In particular, the essay aims to at least mark up a logical space for a non reductivist and relational view of persons. This position does not appeal to entities such as Cartesian egos, turns to social and structural relationism, and has been scarcely occupied in the literature. The essay concludes with a short observation on the metaphysica meaning of the death of persons.
