Sergio Pérez Cortés. Offense, Denial and the honour duel.
The complex code of honour and dignity of the 16th. and 17th. centuries in Europe is presented in this article as a verbal device which —disjointed in its finest mechanisms— shows that denial’s efficiency, as the supreme offense, lies in its capacity to take the offended individual out of the society of gentlemen. Also, this article shows how truth —nature of a honorable man— guarantees the offended soul to remain as part of the human community.

The article ponders over the structuralism based on the thesis of The savage thought. It places the proposal of Lévi-Strauss within the framework of anthropological paradigms and it keeps its distance in order to get— through criticism— to a perspective of the relationship between science and logics of the concrete as a system which, if it attempts to be complete. cannot be perfect.
