The aim of this course is to introduce various aspects of philosophical study of man and exhibit their interrelatedness: man is a living being (soul), consciousness, the Cartesian ego, constitutive moments of a human person (embodiment, being in the world, being with others, speech). The course combines historical and historical approach. The methodical standpoint is constituted by the criticism of reductive tendencies in natural science and in philosophy. The subject innovation has been supported by the project Support of Interdisciplinary studies and Study Programmes Innovations at Palacký University in Olomouc, CZ.1.07/2.2.00/28.0091.
Students will be have a survey of basic philosophical attempts to make a definition of the human uniqueness. They will be able to characterize main historical approaches and their weak points. They will also be able to critically evaluate the reductive approach of natural sciences.
