Melody of life

The space of music and the lived of the pathological psyque, under the baton of Eugène Minkowski

Abstract

This work intends to meditate on the way in which music can constitute a “gateway” to the lived experience. Starting from Eugène Minkowski's investigations, we will use music to highlight the various ways of experiencing space. The nature of phenomenological thinking will lead us to expand our investigation to the dimensions of body, time, and alterity. Our ultimate objective involves building a study base, which allows us to think about the human being as an “embodied being in the world”, from which we can provide new elements of comprehensibility to pathological psychic states in future works.
