Descartes defines the ontological position of the “Self” as res cogitans and res extensa. Based on the cogito, this “Self” takes on an absolute character and becomes a central subject open to generality and universality. The modern subject, to whom the world closes in on itself as whatever it expresses, acts and hears, fills every plane it traverses, regardless of space and time, with its sameness. However, when it becomes clear that existence, not thinking, is the foundation of being, the encounter with the Other gains central importance. This encounter has been a key issue in discussions of subjectivity up to the present. In postmodern and poststructuralist thought, subjectivity is often reconsidered through the presence of the Other, with diverse views on the ethical role the Other plays. For instance, Emmanuel Levinas shifts the relation with the Other from interiority to exteriority; Jean-François Lyotard emphasizes difference and multiplicity, dispersing subjectivity through language games; Gilles Deleuze’s radical elimination of the boundary between Self and Other as openness to the other can be mentioned as an example for various perspectives. These examples reflect different ways of thinking about the subject. Yet the breaking of boundaries or affirmation of multiplicity can also be seen as diminishing the space for responsibility beyond the subject’s search for freedom. Believing themselves to live in the shadow of freedom, subjects suspend coming-into-being by collapsing truth into mere perspectives. In this state, the loss of truth and the breakdown of limits create a subject that follows desire in a world where responsibility no longer holds weight. In its relation with the Other, the subject becomes deaf and starts to dissolve at the edges of its being. This suggests that subjectivity is not just about agency, but involves a shared silence with all beings that inhabit life together. The purpose of our research with this echo emanating from the subject is to show that the plane of life is transformed into a vast space populated by bodies that do not want to become conscious and realize their existence. Understanding the philosophical background of this transformation is essential, especially in the context of the Anthropocene era, where life’s unstable and surface-level nature affects how subjectivity takes shape. In order to provide elucidations, the document analysis method was used for the literature review. Through the document analysis method, primary and secondary sources were analyzed within the scope of the thesis. Thinkers like Blaise Pascal, Friedrich Nietzsche, and Novalis, who highlight the illusory nature of existence, help us identify symptoms of contemporary subjectivity. With inspiraation Jacques Lacan’s point of view, the “Self” that is bound to illusion tends to ontological silence any other “Self” that denies its own dependency on illusion. This may serve as a kind of balm for the modern human being, who senses reality as a wound. But whether this balm heals or simply numbs remains an open question. Throughout this study, we have explored this question from different angles. In conclusion, the inability to coming-into-being means reversing the relationship between reality and illusion, by covering up the flaws we refuse to see or acknowledge. As a result, the contemporary subject experiences existence through illusions.
