And how can we add new ideas to Bioenergetics without betraying Alexander Lowens essential ideas, whose integrity he strongly protected? The model of suspicion and recovery of Paul Ricoeur, the French philosopher, allows us to discover what is unexamined, unexplored or repressed in Lowen's ideas on the body and the self. This hermeneutic perspective enables us to examine the otherness of the embodied self in a way that honors Lowen' s genius and his emphasis on the body. It also provides a way to critique the historical limitations of Lowen's views on the development of the self, the family and gender roles, and provides a pathway for incorporating new knowledge into Bioenergetics. Key words Hermeneutics, Otherness of the Embodied Self, Social Ethics. PB - FrancoAngeli ER -
