Maria Larionescu: On 'Existence as Value

Summary/Abstract: One can not write about Maria Larionescu without addressing the symbol she embraced in her professional life, namely what Ricoeur calls “value-existence”: “when each person not only appears to me, but also determines itself absolutely as an end in itself, limiting my claims to objectify her theoretically and use her practically, then she exists for me and at the same time in herself. In short, the existence of the other is a value-existence”. This explains her focus, during the “Old Regime”, on the work carried out by the “Bucharest School of Sociology” founded by Dimitrie Gusti, in an approach that I would frame as an effort to dislocate what at that time represented the living-present.
