Abstract

After a terminological clarification of concepts of “boundary” and “limit”, this essay analyzes the transformations that the meaning of these concepts undergoes in contemporary thought. It seems today that boundaries must be overcome, that all barriers must collapse, and that limits no longer exist. An insight into this situation is offered with reference to the experience of the “metaverse”. Faced with this situation, a rethinking of the notions of ‘limit’ and ‘boundary’ is proposed, and it is shown how from an ethical point of view the ambiguities by which these concepts are characterized can be addressed
