The distinctive experience of taking and being a place in the history of mankind can symbolize at the same time, strength and weakness of those who experience this phenomenon. However, who can this feat, winning the condition to find itself in different historical times, review its essence and evaluate their existence. This is the case of philosophy. Throughout history, both she occupied a place, as was this place. And today, what is the place of philosophy? It is around this question emerging from the main reflections that give life to this work. Basing on concepts and ideas of the philosophers Pierre Hadot, Walter Benjamin and Giorgio Agamben, this article proposes a debate on the place of philosophy in contemporary times, trying to understand if this place actually exists, and who can live in it.
