| Sumario: | The manuscript discusses the concept of guilt from Nietzsche, Heidegger, Jaspers and Ricouer as the main referents of contemporary philosophy that have addressed this issue. The article reflects on the different conceptions of guilt and its relation to the modern subject, its existence, transcendence and responsibility. In a technified era, dominated by the utilitarian and consumerist tendency, mass production and the alienation that the human being lives with respect to himself, it becomes indispensable to rethink about authenticity, individuality and subjectivity in singular contexts such as ours. The methodology used for the structuring of this document is based on the main guidelines of qualitative research, it is supported by the bibliographic review, the analysis of texts, and consequently, the hermeneutic method for the interpretation of theories, categories, principles, doctrines and conceptions. The article is structured in four sections: The first section presents a discussion on the concept of guilt and the birth of conscience from the Nietzschean perspective. The second section refers to the concept of guilt in Martin Heidegger's philosophy, explaining the function of guilt in the clarification of the meaning of being. The third section makes an exposition on the relationship between the concept of guilt and transcendence according to Karl Jaspers. Finally, the fourth section explores the relationship raised by Ricouer on the concept of guilt and responsibility. |
