De la clínica a la cultura: diálogo entre Canguilhem, Dagognet y Scott-Fordsmand sobre los aportes epistémicos de la medicina a las humanidades
Resumen
This article proposes a conceptual dialogue between Georges Canguilhem (Castelnaudary, June 4, 1904 – Marly-le-Roi, September 11, 1995), François Dagognet (Langres, April 24, 1924 – Avallon, October 3, 2015), and Hélène Scott-Fordsmand (present) concerning the epistemic contributions of medicine to the field of the humanities. Drawing on the notions of vital normativity, technical representation, and inverted episteme, it is argued that medicine should not be regarded solely as an object of study for the humanities, but also as a generative source of concepts, forms of knowledge, and ways of understanding the human being. Through this philosophical triptych, an expanded medical epistemology is presented—one that transcends the traditional and hegemonic biomedical perspective and proposes a renewed alliance between medicine and the humanities.
