ABSTRACT
In this article, we discuss the relations of Bakhtin’s thought to some trends of modern philosophy. Our starting point is his initial texts in which he points out his intention to construct a prima philosophia founded on axiology and not on ontology. We follow his ethical and aesthetic thought and his proposals for a philosophy of culture. We point out his attitudes opposed to the great systems of Rationalism and his identification with a perspective founded on eventicity and actually living experience. We conclude with an overview of his vinculations to philosophical trends that have defended the primacy of intersubjectivity.
