Abstract
The continous development of biotechnology and of philosophical transhuman proposals have questioned the existance of human nature. To state or deny a human nature is the necessary pretext to modify technologically the human being and take it to a new Project of being: the bioartfactual. The present analysis reflects on human nature from the perspective of biohermeneutics proposed by Jesús Conill in his work. “Corporal intimacy and human person”. Fort he spanish philosopher, critical hermeneutics represent an alternative answer to the naturalization and techonlogization efforts of life. Two paths have to be walked to formulate a proposal. The first one, to take on the concept of “human nature” from a interpretive perspective, with the intention of correcting the notions of substance and essence. The second one, to advance the experience of corporal intimacy as a way to understand the human person and the value of it’s dignity. In this way, it is expected, that the efforts to winnow oroutgrow the traditional notion of human nature, will be reflected in an autonomous moral that qualifies the person to judge it’s own actions and the actions of others. Just as Zubiri and Laín had taught, being a person is a Project of appropiation and self delivery.
