Abstract
[spa] En este trabajo repaso la concepción del cuerpo de Nietzsche y de Butler, intentando mostrar cómo cada una nos ayuda a superar un error de la modernidad. Nietzsche nos permite recuperar el cuerpo y contrarrestar el dualismo cartesiano, que lo valora tan poco, convirtiéndolo en una mera máquina. La obra de Judith Butler, por otro lado, especialmente Precarious Life y Frames of War, nos sirve para hacer frente al individualismo, al poner sobre la mesa la socialidad del cuerpo, el modo en que nuestro cuerpo habla de los otros y está expuesto a los otros.

Nietzsche allows us to recover the body and fight back Cartesian dualism, which values it so little, considering the body just as a machine. In turn, Judith Butler's work, especially Precarious Life and Frames of War, helps us face individualism, making emphasis on the body's sociality, the way in which our bodies speak about the others and are exposed to them.
