Abstract

Nature is a supraindividual limit for the individual self-definition of man. Our identities differ because we see the world in dissimilar ways. This article suggests the distinguishing of the three main anthropological paradigms that presuppose our understanding of what the world is and how we identify ourselves. These are the mytho-metaphysical, the physically natural and the sociocentric anthropological paradigms. The author also mark the key anthropological dispositions which are the relations "man — nature", "man — others" (or: "man — people"), "man — time" (or: "man — history"), "man — spirit" ("man — the ideal", in some cases: "man — the Absolute"), "man — body" and, finally, "man — death". By interpreting these dispositions in accordance to the logic of a particular paradigm we clarify (or construct) what it means to be human.
