GRASSI, Martín. FREEDOM AND COMMUNION: SAMENESS AND ALTERITYARTICULATION IN GABRIEL MARCEL'S PHILOSOPHY. SOME APPROACHES. Univ. philos. [online]. 2014, vol.31, n.63, pp.235-266. ISSN 0120-5323.  https://doi.org/10.11144/Javeriana.uph31-63.lcma.

In this paper we will try to show how Gabriel Marcel understands the junction between the self and the other as appears in his reflections on the opposition freedom-gift, on his critique of Sartre's philosophy of freedom, and on metaphysical implications of love. These three approaches point out a way that leads to understand man's tension between selfhood and alterity, in the heart of a fundamental communion which refer, ultimately, to the divine. Therefore, metaphysical and religious discourses are constantly crossing but, instead of revoking value to Marcel's philosophy, this double rapport teaches us a way of attending religious symbols and testimonies in order to get close to the meaning of human experience.

Palabras clave : Gabriel Marcel; freedom; gift; Jean-Paul Sartre; alterity.
