Abstract

ABSTRACT This text deals with the woman (non)concept in the ontological history of informing, whose figure is the formless. It addresses the marginal question of the feminine and its declassified condition in the broad lines of Western thought, especially in the view of Aristotle and, for the time being, also of Socrates (or Plato). As an argument, it outlines the formless as a blot in the concept of information and, in parallel, presents women as a marginalia simultaneous in this process of Western obliteration. Finally, it marks a reminder in the conceptual history of information.

Keywords: Desclassification; Formless; Woman; Philosophy of Information.
