The essay addresses the question of the philosophical anthropology of the partisan subject – as manifested in the Nazi-fascist struggle – by highlighting its two dimensions: the subjective and the objective. The two dimensions are intertwined by emphasising how the resisting subject is the product, and not the cause, of a modification of the ontological texture of the historical situation imposed by an event. This event, following J. Starobinski’s indications and A. Badiou’s philosophical reflection, is traced by the introduction into the historical dimension of the concept of choice and its intrinsic ethical-political difficulties. The resistant subject is then analysed as the product of fidelity to this choice – which is expressed in choosing to choose in the tragedy of action – in which not the ontological nature of the new anthropology is made explicit, but its practical-political nature.

Abstract
The essay addresses the question of the philosophical anthropology of the partisan subject – as manifested in the Nazi-fascist struggle – by highlighting its two dimensions: the subjective and the objective. The two dimensions are intertwined by emphasising how the resisting subject is the product, and not the cause, of a modification of the ontological texture of the historical situation imposed by an event. This event, following J. Starobinski’s indications and A. Badiou’s philosophical reflection, is traced by the introduction into the historical dimension of the concept of choice and its intrinsic ethical-political difficulties. The resistant subject is then analysed as the product of fidelity to this choice – which is expressed in choosing to choose in the tragedy of action – in which not the ontological nature of the new anthropology is made explicit, but its practical-political nature.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
