Peter Sloterdijk: Experimentos con uno mismo, ensayos de intoxicación voluntaria y constitución psico-­‐‑inmunitaria de la naturaleza humana.

Abstract

We   inquire   about   the   poisoning,   in   a   comprehensive

program  to  experiment  with  one'ʹs  body,  a  method  that  finds

its   basis   in   the   idea   of   romantic   medicine   where,   according

to   Sloterdijk,   the   dose   effects   in   the   healthy   and   the   sick

were  reflected  specular  manner.  This  is  where  an  ambitious

originates   semiotics   of   pharmacological   medication,   not

only   endomorfinismo   of   speculation,   but   quimioéticos

endocrine  mechanisms.

Sloterdijk   refers   to   a   process   of   voluntary   intoxication   in

reference   to   the   creator   of   homeopathy,   Samuel

Hahnemann,  as  inventor  of  a  micropolitics  of  subjectivity.  In

the   same   way   that   the   homeopath,   as   Hahnemann   himself

must  intoxicated  before  giving  any  advice,  political  theorist

must  be  willing  to  risk  their  identity  in  practice.

Sloterdijk   referring   to   such   "ʺexperiments   with   oneself"ʺ   and

not   think   of   an   experiment   in   vivisection   own   flesh,   nor

romantic  psychosis  in  psychoanalysis,  but  rather  refers  to  a

phenomenon   belonging   to   the   history   of   modern   medicine,

homeopathic   movement,   which   goes   back   over   two

hundred   years   and   whose   effectiveness   is   verified   with

proposed   therapeutic-­‐‑adequate   medical   treat-­‐‑able   modern

neurosis.   It   examines   and   discusses   the   unorthodox   belief

that   the   physician   would   be   required   to   intoxicate   himself

with   all   that   he   was   later   to   prescribe   to   patients.   This

reflection   should   experiment   with   the   concept   of   self:   who

wants  to  be  a  doctor  needs  to  be  guinea  pig  previously,  this

is  to  be  your  own   Indies  pigs.

The  author  is  valuable  and  useful  that  is  contaminated  with

the   materials   he   works   with,   high   toxic   substances,   this

approach   has   not   changed.   Kafka,   Musil,   Broch,   Burroughs

all   great   twentieth   century   masters   are   also   dangerous thought.
