Abstract

This paper aims at exploring the issue of human identity. Although we tend to talk about “liquid identity” or to exclude ontological definitions, the current political, economic and social environment forces us to define a deeper and more objective foundation of human identity. The proposed analysis focuses on the notion of travel as a journey towards a meta-reflection on human existence and experience. Following a semantic and theoretical analysis of the concepts of "limit" and "relation", this paper discusses the existence of an objective and infinite ontological human core, which requires care for the self and towards the other.
