Annotation -

The subject is conceived as an introduction to philosophical anthropology and follows up on the exposition of the
subject Ontology. The historico-systematic exposition is divided into three main parts. First we focus on the issue of
the person and introduce various conceptions since antiquity up to the present. The exposition is supplemented by
reading primary texts by outstanding thinkers. In the second part we focus on the issue of knowing and desiring
(sensual and spiritual) and the exposition is continuously supplemented by reading D. Peroutkaʼs book “Thomistic
Philosophical Anthropology” (compulsory literature). In the last part we introduce the basic concepts and difficulties
of the traditional doctrine of man composed of soul and body. The exposition is enriched by supplementary topics
such as the problem of human evolution, selected theological consequences of philosophical anthropology
(human dignity, ontological structure of the person, orientation of man and the universe to God as the final cause of
creation, and others).

Consultation can be either in English, or in German.
