How is it that we have become the beings and persons we are? In order to clarify this culturally guided unceasing process, the work follows the clues that the French term ΓÇÿrecognition,ΓÇÖ or reconnaissance, provides.

Re-con-naissance invites us to think that a human being truly becomes a human being, that is, finds him or herself as a human in relation to humanity expressed as culture.
