“The Bodily Fact of Otherness”: Martin Buber’s Post-Kantian Phenomenology of Dialogue

| Resumo: | It has become commonplace among scholars to map Martin Buber’s concepts of “I-It” and “I-Thou” onto Kant’s phenomenon and noumenon, respectively. However, this has resulted in significant misconceptions about Buber’s phenomenology of dialogue. In fact, his philosophy was decidedly post-Kantian in the dual sense of being both under the influence of Kant and in opposition to him, and attention to themes of embodiment (Leiblichkeit) in Buber’s writings helps to disentangle these aspects. Through close philological readings, this paper demonstrates how Buber sought to circumvent the transcendental boundary between appearance and being, appropriated Kant’s language of “intuition” to describe a sensory encounter with the presence of a thing in itself, and affirmed that while being is not apprehended in terms of space and time, it is nonetheless spatial and temporal. Ultimately, these investigations elucidate what I term Buber’s dialogical monism, which in some ways anticipated insights of new materialism. |
