	Objectives
	A)THIS COURSE AIMS TO PROMOTE KNOWLEDGE OF CONVERGENCES AND DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE DASEINSANALYSE BY WHICH BINSWNGER REBUILDS PSYCHIATRY AND THE “PHILOSOPHY OF DASEIN” BY WHICH BOSS AIMS TO OFFER NEW PROSPECTS TO PSYCHOSOMATIC MEDICINE. B)THIS COURSE AIMS TO PROMOTE SKILL IN UNDERSTANDING THE COMPLEX CONTINUITY OR BREAK RELATIONS TO THE FREUDIAN THEORY AND, GENERALLY, TO THE PSYCHOANALYSIS, THAT WE FIND BOTH IN BINSWANGER’S AND IN BOSS’S WORK. C)THIS COURSE WANTS TO HELP STUDENTS TO FORM THEIR AUTONOMOUS JUDGMENT ON THE ANALYZED THEMES. D) WE’LL TRY TO PROVIDE STUDENTS WITH THE ESSENTIAL LEXICAL AND CONCEPTUAL TOOLS SO THAT THEY CAN DISCUSS THE THEMES ANALYZED, CLEARLY AND COHERENTLY, DURING THEIR EXAMINATIONS. E) THIS COURSE AIMS TO DEVELOP AND STRENGTHEN STUDENTS’ CAPACITY OF ANALYZING AND UNDERSTANDING THE WEAVING AND THE CHANGES OF EPISTEMIC PARADIGMS IN HUMAN SCIENCES.

	THE EXISTENTIAL RANGE OF THE BODY WE’LL EXAMINE SOME PROBLEMATICAL ASPECTS OF HUMAN CORPOREALITY FOCUSED BY PHEMENOLOGICAL PSYCHIATRY, STARTING FROM THE SLIDING DIFFERENCE BETWEEN KÖRPER (BODY AS A BIOLOGICAL OBJECT, A PHYSICAL SYSTEM), AND LEIB (BODY AS A LIVED BODY, A PERSONAL BODY, A BODY WHICH, IN TURNS, IS OBJECT AND SUBJECT OF EXPERIENCE, IMBUED WITH SELF), AND THE WAY THE TWO POLES – TO HAVE A BODY, TO BE A BODY - GET MIXED UP. PECULIARLY, WE’LL DIRECT OUR ATTENTION TOWARDS THE DASEINSANALYSE EQUIPPED BY LUDWIG BINSWANGER AND THE PSYCHOSOMATIC MEDICINE INNOVATED BY MEDARD BOSS. IN THEM BOTH, EVEN IF THEY ORIGINATE FROM A DIFFERENT WAY OF RE-ELABORATING HEIDEGGER’S THOUGHT, WE FIND HUMAN CORPOREALITY TO BE AN EXISTENTIAL DIMENSION. FOR EXAMPLE, IN BINSWANGER, THE HYSTERIC EXISTENCE GETS CAPTURED BY THE BODY AND ADOPTS ITS LANGUAGE. THE MEMORY OF THE PAST IS LOST, THE WAITING FOR THE FUTURE ERASED. THIS EXISTENCE STAGNATES AND DISAPPEARS IN THE BODY, CHOOSES TO EXIST IN A PERIPHERAL WAY, NOT IN THE CENTRAL WAY WE GAIN ONLY BY JOINING THE FULL, DEEP SELF. THE SCHIZOPHRENIC EXISTENCE, CRACKED AND EMPTIED BY AN INCREASING WORLDIFICATION (VERWELTLICHUNG) WHERE THE SELF LOSES BORDERS (IT IS DISMISSED), COMES TO A MERE BODILY EXISTENCE WHICH IS EXPOSED TO PUSHES, INTRUSIONS, ASSAULTS OF THE MIGHTY OUTSIDE STRENGTH OF “AWFULNESS”. WE’LL SHOW HOW, ACCORDING TO BOSS, PSYCHOSOMATIC SYMPTOMS, ESPECIALLY FUNCTIONAL, ORGANIC DISORDERS, HAVEN’T A MECHANICAL, GENETIC OR PSYCHODYNAMICAL CAUSE; THEY MUST BE INTERPRETED AS THE EMBODIMENT (FOR THE HUMAN BEING THERE)OF THE FADING OF DISPLAYING POSSIBILITIES OR RELATIONS TO THINGS OR TO OTHER HUMAN BEINGS. HUMAN CORPOREALITY, WHICH IS A DULL, SILENT SPHERE OF OUR EXISTENCE, RETAINS IN ITSELF ALL EXISTENTIAL SETBACKS, FAILURES AND RENEWS THEM, OVER AND OVER AGAIN, AS BODY DISORDERS (TACHYCARDIA, HIGH BLOOD-PRESSURE, ASTHMA, ETC.).

THE EXISTENTIAL RANGE OF THE BODY

WE’LL EXAMINE SOME PROBLEMATICAL ASPECTS OF HUMAN CORPOREALITY FOCUSED BY PHEMENOLOGICAL PSYCHIATRY, STARTING FROM THE SLIDING DIFFERENCE BETWEEN KÖRPER (BODY AS A BIOLOGICAL OBJECT, A PHYSICAL SYSTEM), AND LEIB (BODY AS A LIVED BODY, A PERSONAL BODY, A BODY WHICH, IN TURNS, IS OBJECT AND SUBJECT OF EXPERIENCE, IMBUED WITH SELF), AND THE WAY THE TWO POLES – TO HAVE A BODY, TO BE A BODY - GET MIXED UP.

PECULIARLY, WE’LL DIRECT OUR ATTENTION TOWARDS THE DASEINSANALYSE EQUIPPED BY LUDWIG BINSWANGER AND THE PSYCHOSOMATIC MEDICINE INNOVATED BY MEDARD BOSS. IN THEM BOTH, EVEN IF THEY ORIGINATE FROM A DIFFERENT WAY OF RE-ELABORATING HEIDEGGER’S THOUGHT, WE FIND HUMAN CORPOREALITY TO BE AN EXISTENTIAL DIMENSION.

FOR EXAMPLE, IN BINSWANGER, THE HYSTERIC EXISTENCE GETS CAPTURED BY THE BODY AND ADOPTS ITS LANGUAGE. THE MEMORY OF THE PAST IS LOST, THE WAITING FOR THE FUTURE ERASED. THIS EXISTENCE STAGNATES AND DISAPPEARS IN THE BODY, CHOOSES TO EXIST IN A PERIPHERAL WAY, NOT IN THE CENTRAL WAY WE GAIN ONLY BY JOINING THE FULL, DEEP SELF.

THE SCHIZOPHRENIC EXISTENCE, CRACKED AND EMPTIED BY AN INCREASING WORLDIFICATION (VERWELTLICHUNG) WHERE THE SELF LOSES BORDERS (IT IS DISMISSED), COMES TO A MERE BODILY EXISTENCE WHICH IS EXPOSED TO PUSHES, INTRUSIONS, ASSAULTS OF THE MIGHTY OUTSIDE STRENGTH OF “AWFULNESS”. WE’LL SHOW HOW, ACCORDING TO BOSS, PSYCHOSOMATIC SYMPTOMS, ESPECIALLY FUNCTIONAL, ORGANIC DISORDERS, HAVEN’T A MECHANICAL, GENETIC OR PSYCHODYNAMICAL CAUSE; THEY MUST BE INTERPRETED AS THE EMBODIMENT (FOR THE HUMAN BEING THERE)OF THE FADING OF DISPLAYING POSSIBILITIES OR RELATIONS TO THINGS OR TO OTHER HUMAN BEINGS.

HUMAN CORPOREALITY, WHICH IS A DULL, SILENT SPHERE OF OUR EXISTENCE, RETAINS IN ITSELF ALL EXISTENTIAL SETBACKS, FAILURES AND RENEWS THEM, OVER AND OVER AGAIN, AS BODY DISORDERS (TACHYCARDIA, HIGH BLOOD-PRESSURE, ASTHMA, ETC.).
