This text focuses on the possibility of acquiring universal knowledge (especially about values) by individual subjective consciousness as determined both corporeally and culturally. Along with the appearance of the “question” of the cultural Other (and with the cultural relativism as its other side) the attempts of European philosophers to establish a kind of a universal sphere—intellectual basis for an intercultural dialogue—became more intensive, but still often limited by their relation to the values and ideas of the only one culture. In other words, the attempts to search the community of human kind in an intellectual sphere often led to the universality being the “universalized particularity” (Wallerstein), maintained by the empty signifiers (Laclau). But there is also another philosophical tradition, in which the “universality” of ideas, concepts or values is being perceived as a quasi-universality or pluri-versality, mediated by human organic and cultural interactions, and is being derived rather from “beyond”—from the condition of embodiment—than from “above,” the pure intellectual cognition. I focus on three instances of moving from the order of body towards the quasi-universal values: on Bartolomé de Las Casas’s posing a problem of the universal values in the context of intercultural dialogue, on Michel de Montaigne’s reflections on human nature and Walter Mignolo’snaturalistic foundation of the comparative studies. I chose these examples, because they offer a clear and expressed attempt to reformulate the very idea of possible universality in the context of the desired intercultural dialogue, but within the optics of the embodied subjectivities.

The purpose of this essay is to present the most important female protagonists in their interaction with Don Quixote. The vision of Golden Age introduces significant ambiguity into the woman's image: she is essentially related to fertile Mother Nature and, at the same time, is to fulfill the ascetic ideal unceasingly menaced by bodily passions. Both the ideal and Don Quixote are put to the test by particular female protagonists using their body, literary conventions and social relations. Marcela chooses the pastoral romance to gain the autonomy but at once needs to leave the society, Dorothea gets identity inside the social order through the chivalric romance, while Duchess takes her power from the social status. The Death's figure connected with Duchess shows that the real opposition organizing the novel might not be idealism/materialism or mind/body but both these elements put against the social order.

The aim of the text is to present the main ideas of Raul Fornet-Betancourt’s intercultural philosophy in the context of contemporary Latin American philosophy related to liberation projects, so that the specificity of the concept can be grasped. The starting point is the definition of intercultural philosophy in general: as embedded in individual cultural experience, but also in social structures. For Fornet-Betancourt, these will be three basic dimensions that any philosophical reflection must take into account: concrete, bodily, living “I”, interacting with its environment; culture as a space of symbolic interactions; and social structure understood as a field of power relations. The ethical (liberation) and dialogic dimensions of intercultural philosophy emerge against this background.
