The Ethics and Aesthetics of Naked Bodies Luciana Roso

Often the title of Master is seen only as an academic or bureaucratic requirement. It is true, but if reduced to fulfilling a task, we run the risk of giving up in the middle of the journey. The dissertation mobilizes all our forces, our time; we are antisocial and exclusionary subjects, uncertain in behavior, in emotion and, why not, in intellect. The dissertation consumes our energies and requires an enormous tolerance of those who live with us, because at this stage of life, we are driven to the exclusivity of writing. However, doing research with daring, in the sense of daring, provoking, questioning oneself, fills a social function: the one of advancing the knowledge of a certain purpose. Whatever the subject, it will always add something for someone, whether by the perspective that is explored, or new look, it provokes insights, and, certainly, disaccommodation and strangeness. My delirium is the claim that respect among human beings and with our bigger house is possible, yes, from simple alternatives, not judging, but knowing, opting or not, but respecting.
