Abstract
Description
En este texto nos inclinamos sobre una mirada del envejecimiento desde una concepción filosófica de la conciencia del tiempo ya que es uno de los elementos más relevantes que no solo ha emergido en el Proyecto de investigación SABE Colombia (Encuesta Salud, bienestar y Envejecimiento), sino de la estructura misma de la vida; es más la vejez en sí misma, como fenómeno temporal, es la acumulación de tiempo en un mismo cuerpo; además, la noción de tiempo está implícita en el estudio del envejecimiento. Este artículo tiene como objetivo revelar el sentido de la conciencia temporal de la vejez o la vejez a la luz de la conciencia temporal, en tanto el tiempo se va desprendiendo de la existencia humana poco a poco hasta agotar su contenido en el cuerpo como revelación del tiempo, como huella, como rastro en donde se revela la vida misma. Para lograr este objetivo se proponen tres puntos nodales de reflexión, primero, entre la latencia y la presencia de la vejez; segundo, entre vejez y clandestinidad del futuro, y por último, el rostro de la vejez: el desprendimiento de cuerpo a través de la conciencia temporal del presente.
In this text we approach the process of aging from the philosophical view-point of the awareness of time. We consider this awareness of paramount importance not only in the course of the research project SABE Colombia (Survey of Health, Well-being and Aging, according to its initials in Spanish), but also because of the very structure of life. Moreover, old age in itself, as a time-related phenomenon, consists of the accumulation of time in a single body: therefore, the notion of time must be implicit in the study of aging. This article aims at revealing the sense of the time consciousness of old age or (in other words) at viewing old age in the light of time consciousness, insofar as time lets human existence come off gradually until its exhaustion reveals life as a time trace, as a time mark in the body. To achieve this goal, we propose three nodal points of reflection: first, between the latency and the presence of old age; second, between old age and the secrecy of future, and finally, the face of old age: the detachment of the body through the time consciousness of the present.
