URIBE-BOTERO, Ángela. Verbiage and empathy. On Memory by Correspondence by Emma Reyes. Estud.filos [online]. 2016, n.54, pp.9-22. ISSN 0121-3628. https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.ef.n54a02.
The purpose of this paper is to deepen into the sense of isolation in aconvent in which Emma Reyes, the author of the book Memoria por correspondencia was forced to live. Taking account of Maxine SheetsJohnstone´s term "immortality ideologies", in the first part of the paper I try to disclose what I see as the origin of that isolation. In the second part, I weave a relation between the way the immortality ideology is instantiated in that convent and the term "empathy", as used in phenomenology. I conclude showing how empathy can be impoverished as to the point where the particularities of an other´s experiences are perceived only in a marginal and peripheral way.
