Content
Starting from E. Stein's thesis about the phenomenology of empathy (1916), we'll systematically consider the phenomenon of empathy as a radically cognitive and affective one, realizing the fundamental "intercorporeity" conditioning every "intercomprehension".
We'll give a look at recent neurophenomenological developments around empathy.
