520 _aThis article pays tribute to Xavier Lacroix a little more than a year after his death. After recalling the broad outlines of his life and work, it seeks to present the anthropology that underlies all of his ethical positions. A first section specifies how the author considers, in philosophical terms, the ethical significance of carnal acts from an aesthetic point of view. A second stage then underlines what is at stake, for moral theology, in a revelation of the “body of flesh” in light of faith in the resurrection. This brief survey enables us to recognize the fruitfulness of the dialectic of the carnal and the spiritual for contemporary ethical questions, not only in relation to affective and sexual life but also much more widely. What is at stake here is the articulation of this “epiphany of the body” together with the “divine pedagogy” highlighted by Amoris laetitia, which invites us to consider the complexity of human situations.
