    Lévi-Strauss (1958, p. 326). In the heading of this edition, which coincided with the centenary of Durkheim, Lévi-Strauss admits having been a “fickle disciple” of the great sociologist and founder of L`Année Sociologique, a publication recognized as the “prestigious workshop where contemporary ethnology received a portion of its arsenal.”

    Sloterdijk (2011, p. 18).

  25. 25.

    Here, we circle around what Sloterdijk could mean by the circumstances of “rebuilding” this way in contemporaneity, since, from the political-cultural point of view, its orientation could allow for an implicit crypto-fascism.

    Heidegger (1973, p. 218).

  45. 45.

    The term redescription is constant in the more recent philosophical vocabulary of the American pragmatist Richard Rorty , while reinterpretation is constant in the texts of the Italian, Gianni Vattimo .
