In accordance with the spirit of Philosophie-Performance Festival [soundcheck philosophie] which took place in 2011 and 2012 in Halle (Germany) the paper deals with possible forms of expressing philosophical thoughts. In the frame of an optical experiment the notions embodiment and the public have been focused on in order to take a closer look – in accordance with the objectives of the performative philosophy – at the reception of a theory. The justification of the need of philosophical performances and other experiments concerning the philosophical discourse goes back to the philosophical anthropology of Helmut Plessner (1889 – 1985). Two theses are presented as a conclusion: a) philosophical thinking as such is to be taken as public; b) the embodiment of philosophical thinking is to be understood as a purely mental process.

The aim of the text is to analyse the impact of the project of philosophical anthropology elaborated by Helmuth Plessner, which will be demonstrated on the concept of corporeality seen in the framework of eccentric positionality. In the first part of the text, we analyse the interference of philosophical anthropology and phenomenology (on the examples of lived body and oikos). This is based on historical as well as on deeper philosophical reasons. In this connection, we also find some practical applications of Plessner’s project, e.g., in cultural anthropology, ethnology and pedagogy. In the second part, the problematics of “corporeality as eccentric positionality” will be seen in the light of philosophy of biology and we open a dialog with a French biophysician Henri Atlan who focuses on characterisations of human, non-human and inhuman. Here, eccentric positionality converges with emergence (autopoiesis) and corporeality becomes one of the sings of anthropological difference.
