Beginning with the Melancholy of Lucas Cranach of 1532, we investigate about the Cartesian lineage of the vertigo of uncertainty that Antoine Roquentin suffers, the protagonist of Sartre’s Nausea. A certain syndrome is addressed in these pages, consisting in the difficulty of discern-ment between what happens outside the conscience and what is not more than mental representation, to sustain that this ambiguity is the condition of possibility of the modern consciousness, that of a sustained consciousness in its very contingency.Downloads
