This text analyses the continuity/discontinuity which distinguishes the relationship between the human and any other living being, intended both as non-human animality and that ineliminabile component of the human itself. An analysis of the role and the function of language – a symbolic unction which determines the difference between the human and any non-”speaking” living being and which breaks or invalidates any evolutionist continuism – elucidates the condition of radical and absolute responsibility of the human towards any other living being.

Abstract

This text analyses the continuity/discontinuity which distinguishes the relationship between the human and any other living being, intended both as non-human animality and that ineliminabile component of the human itself. An analysis of the role and the function of language – a symbolic unction which determines the difference between the human and any non-”speaking” living being and which breaks or invalidates any evolutionist continuism – elucidates the condition of radical and absolute responsibility of the human towards any other living being.
