Abstract
This essay maps the uncharted imbrication between the philosophy of Emanuele
Severino and the work of a feminist branch of the Thought of Sexual Difference,
particularly as outlined in the reflection of Luisa Muraro. In a comparative manner, I activate a series of linkages between concepts such as the structural impasse of the real and the unorthodox implications of the theory of salvation as they emerge in selected works by both authors. Interrogating transcendence as a decisive tenet of the patriarchal symbolic order, I finally illustrate how these concepts are instrumental in dismantling the nihilistic discourse of modernity.
