In the wake of scepticism and empiricism, Barthez plans a science of man which rests upon physiological foundations and assimilates the respective resources of medicine and philosophical reflection. This essay first reconstructs the historical-cultural context in which the author’s writings came into being; second, it examines the texts in which its science of man takes shape, by highlighting the methodology, conceptual tools and theoretical implications UR - http://www.fedoabooks.unina.it/index.php/fedoapress/catalog/book/55 UR - https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/53005 ER -
