Abstract
This article outlines some existential concepts and socio-affective self, of others and nature on
the altered perspective of Hannah Arendt (2010a, 2010b, 1997) and Leonardo Boff (1991, 1999,
2000) in their usual representations in everyday life. From the point of view of the analysis of the
Cartesian world view, the self that is considering in the foreground in the face of the other and
the world, representations and set up all show that there is always from the perspective of the
self, the ego cogitans, egocentrism. This article urges readers to invite everyone to rethink this
rather artificial logic governing human relations from Western, especially the Middle Ages, and
it has shown injustices from that imbalance of meanings and judgments in the face of otherness,
which bring in ourselves.
