Abstract

The conscientious experience of diversity is one of the privileged ways to face the most obvious contradictions of human experience as well as the challenges of life with others. This is a kindhearted narrative of the origin of this anthropological idea, which was possible only thanks to the anthropological experience. That is to say, the precise moment when anthropology is no longer a profession and buries itself in ears, hands, eyes, and mouth. Usually, important ideas take time to develop, they are difficult to apprehend and tame. This account is an opportunity to capture the idea that hovers among my daily experience, my imagination, and my memory. This idea has become the implicit and quiet reason that pushes me every day to fight in and from my profession. My narrative tries to restore some moments in which this idea has flourished and has been expressed subtly sometimes and furiously some other times.
