Abstract: This article proposes a problematization of the human condition in the contemporary world based on the abandonment of unitary truths and the obsession with accuracy, privileging complexity and paradox as central cognitive operators. Instead of looking for fixed definitions of what is human, we adopt a plural and relational approach, understanding the subject as a multifaceted emergence that crosses the biological, the symbolic, the technical and the mythical. The human condition is approached as a phenomenon in permanent metamorphosis, marked by tensions between creation and repetition, between nature and artifice, between cosmic ancestry and contemporary technicality. Keywords: complexity; paradox; hybridity; narratives of the human.
