ABSTRACT
While existential phenomenological accounts of selfhood promise theories that do justice to lived experience, they do not always engage the experience of those at the margins. This chapter introduces a notion of multiplicitous selfhood inspired by Latina feminist theory—primarily the work of Gloria Anzaldúa and María Lugones—and Heideggerian existential phenomenology that attempts to do justice to the experience of marginalization. While this self is shown as having important similarities with the Heideggerian account of Dasein, it nevertheless differs from it due to the constant experience of not-being-at-ease. Ultimately, multiplicitous selfhood takes into consideration both the multiplicity and the oneness of the self.
