Abstract
En la genealogía del cuidado de sí,
Foucault afirma que la filosofía cartesiana propina
a esta tradición el golpe definitivo que la
condena al olvido. A partir de entonces, el sujeto
ya no debe practicar sobre su ser de sujeto ninguna
transformación para acceder a la verdad,
basta con el empleo correcto de sus facultades
cognoscitivas. En este artículo se defiende que en
Descartes la cuestión del cuidado no es olvidada,
sino que precisamente la empresa de la reconstrucción
del edificio del conocimiento para la búsqueda
de la verdad es abordada como fruto de una
decisión moral sobre la forma de vida.
In the genealogy of self-care, Foucault states that Cartesian philosophy deals this tradition the final blow that condemns it to oblivion. Since then, the subject no longer has to practice any transformation of his being as a subject in order to access the truth; the correct use of his cognitive faculties is enough. This article argues that in Descartes the question of care is not forgotten, but that precisely the enterprise of reconstructing the building of knowledge for the search for truth is approached as the fruit of a moral decision about the way of life.
