Il metodo dell’antropologia filosofica

Abstract

The article makes a proposal to identify the most appropriate method in the elaboration of philosophical anthropology: the argument starts from considerations regarding the scope of the investigation, paying attention to the contribution of different disciplines and cultural significance from which emerge manifold experiences and descriptions which man gives of himself. After this hermeneutic study, it will be possible to make a transcendental deepening which can be able to reveal the existence of the self, conscious and free, as a specific trait and characteristic of humanity; hence, finally, the research will focus on the ontological dimension, to investigate the meaning of life and
understand the specificity of man.
