QUINTANA, LAURA. HOW CAN RESENTMENT BE TWISTED AROUND? AFFECTS, CONFLICT, AND PRACTICES OF CORPOREAL REINVENTION. Ideas y Valores [online]. 2019, vol.68, suppl.5, pp.163-182. ISSN 0120-0062.  https://doi.org/10.15446/ideasyvaiores.v68n5supl.80622.

On the basis of selected experiences from the present, the article revisits the Nietzschean interpretation of resentment in order to explore the complexity and ambivalence of the phenomenon and shed light on current issues. To that effect, it connects two tendencies and their implications: (i) the manner in which resentment generates the fixation of a threatening identity that leads to the stigmatization of an other, which, at the same time, involves a rejection of historical contingency; and (ii) the manner in which the link between resentment and temporality, in particular with a type of memory, produces an incapacity to assume it creatively. This reflec tion leaves questions open regarding how bodies affected by resentment can twist it around and give rise to more vital forms of relating to the world.

Palabras clave : F. Nietzsche; contingency; body; memory; resentment..
