A few years ago a new technology is born: Genetic therapy. A revoultionary technology that can edit DNA with incredible precision. Now a question we’ve been asking for decades is becoming very real. If humans had the technology to control the source code of life, what happens when we turn it on ourselves? Once we sart tinkering, where do we stop? And that’s where things get complicated. This technology is crucial to finding cures for countless diseases. Is this the way we want to nurture the next generation of children? This makes man his own god.

The body, the bodily condition of the human being, or embodiment as an essential aspect of the human situation in the lived world are important topics of phenomenological research and phenomenologically oriented anthropology. On the other hand, today also cognitive research and neurosciences are dealing with the topic of embodiment, mainly focusing on so-called embodied cognition. Modern neuroscience claims that both, thought and action can only be interpreted in the light of interactions between brain, body and environment. New trends in phenomenology stress their familiarity with this position and focus on naturalizing phenomenology. In my view, this development disregards fundamental Husserlian claims concerning the naturalization of human subjectivity. In order to avoid such naturalizing effects, I focus on the transcendental-phenomenological interpretation of the lived body, and underline the intentional-genetic potential of Husserlian analyses. On this path, instead of relying on naturalizing embodiment, I develop a genetic understanding of the intentional embodiment of subjectivity and describe a peculiar form of intentionality as transbodily intentionality, thereby stressing its anthropological and socio-theoretical significance.
