Abstract
RAMIREZ-VALENCIA, José Raúl. From Self-Absorption to Personalizing Act. Escritos - Fac. Filos. Let. Univ. Pontif. Bolivar. [online]. 2019, vol.27, n.59, pp.366-385. Epub Apr 04, 2020. ISSN 0120-1263. https://doi.org/10.18566/escr.v27n59.a09.
Self-Absorption, as an anthropological category, clarifies opinion and, at the same time, establishes the difference between human beings and the rest of animals. Based on Jose Ortega y Gasset's Ensimismamiento y alteración [Self-Absorption and Alteration], the article focuses on self-absorption as a path towards oneself, to inhabiting intimacy, to finding true vocation, and to creating, intervening and curing circumstances, giving meaning to the latter.
Keywords : Self-absorption; Jose Ortega y Gasset; Oneself; Alteration.
