Summary/Abstract: This article aims at exploring different conceptions about the human body, at drawing a general image of the topic, without being upheld by the author’s personal opinion on the chosen matter to approach. In order to fulfill this objective, the author tries to construct the issue using her skepticism in regard to the «established» scientific positions, deconstructing and analyzing the major already existing explanation/interpretation patterns.
