Abstract
Through this article we would like to explore one of the
most popular characterizations of human nature, one which
shows the agonistic conflict experienced by humans before
the need to build and reaffirm their identity and
individuality within society. In order to do this, we will
review the ethical-‐‑anthropological conception of Charles
Taylor, explaining the intrinsic and mutual interrelation of
both philosophical disciplines, from the ideal of authenticity
and the construction of modern identity within a language
community.
