Resilience: In Search of a Conceptual Character
This book explores the paradoxical nature of trust and distrust in modern life. The authors argue that distrust generates cognitive dissonance and conflict, while trust can breed conformity and betrayal. From this starting point, they investigate an "epistemology of distrust" as a tool for understanding our absurd everyday reality.
The central aim is to clarify how ordinary people can strengthen their resilience. The concept of resilience is examined through three elevated ideals: a dignified and graceful art of living (art de vit); the incorporeal event of meaning (confession-revelation); and the invention of an original concept—a philosophical or scientific idea that revolutionizes contemporary consciousness.
Special attention is given to the phenomena of "loneliness" and "laughter," presented as indicators of resilience in a person who operates under the mask of a created conceptual character (a repertoire of roles). This is a philosophical inquiry into how we construct identity and endure in a world that defies simple explanation.
