The birth is the primary event that originates men and will generate many bioethical issues. But the importance of its inaugural character contrasts with an apparent philosophical oblivion. It is strange that philosophers have preferred to meditate more about the being for death, than about its beginning, considering philosophy knowledge of origins. Some authors, as Stanislas Breton and Paul Ricoeur, have experimented their reasons about this tanatical inclination. This work wants to make philosophers worry about fields that are not native for them and lead the first steps in a march in the darkness that will search for questions. How far is it possible the philosophical learning of the nascent being?
