Summary/Abstract: This text is not an actual study, but a journey‑confession from a time of astonishment to a time of rethinking. The analysis of a handwritten letter of Serge Moscovici, 18 years after being written, proved a surprizing means to change my perception of him. Pursuing the research I switched from the observational status, common for the non‑professionals in social psychology, to the explanatory one; from Serge Moscovici, initiator of the theory of social representation, to Serge Moscovici the one who reflests on his own damnation…. (“I work, so I exist … otherwise, who am I when I don’t read, don’t write and don’t think?” – Moscovici, 2021), who managed to express himself in a pluridisciplinary manner, as a great thinker of both humanity and nature.
