Abstract
This article offers the corporal self-itinerary of the author, a sort of 'corporal autobiography' aimed to make explicit the interconnection between corporal self-experience and the research process. It is pro- posed as a very specific anthropological exercise, an incarnated Anthropology, by means of which two ana- lytical dimensions are claimed: (a) the auto- ethnographic dimension, that is, the pertinence of self-experience in order to understand the others and vice versa, particularly when similar experiences have been felt; (b) an analytical approach from the concept of embodiment: conflictual incarnation, in- teractive and resistant to the social and cultural ide- als, a concept that perfectly integrates the tension between the individual, the social and the political body. It is also claimed a non victimist and involved vision of the individual processes and articulated to the contexts where these porcesses take place.
