Gurevich, P. S. Philosophical Traditions of Understanding Human
Abstract:
Philosophical understanding of human has a long history. The human issue did not appear in philosophy right
away but it does not mean that the question about the essence and meaning of human existence has been asked only
by modern philosophers. However, the concept and image of human have changed with time. Philosophers viewed
human quite differently at different epochs. During Antique times, for instance, human viewed himself as the element
of the existing order defining human existence. Eternal and cosmic elements as well as the objective purpose and universal
norms stay above the subjective-voluntaristic ephemeral elements.
Keywords:
philosophy, microcosm, human, gnostic human, Christianity, cosmos, Antique times, anthropological question, mind.
