Philosophical anthropology is the direction that interrogates the very question of the human being: what are the subject, the individual, the person — and how have these concepts transformed from modernity to contemporary thought.
Archive anchor points
- The National Student Conference “Philosophy and (Post)Modernity: Subject. Individual. Person” (fourth edition, 30 May 2016) — a systematic debate on subjectivity, individuality and personhood, from the Kantian question “what is the human being?” to contemporary critiques of the subject; organised by the Faculty of Philosophy with the support of the CCIIF (documented in the national conferences archive).
- CCIIF Lecture Series: the lecture “On the Shortcoming of Having Thought the Other: A Phenomenological Investigation of ego amans” — a phenomenological inquiry into the relation with the other (lecture page).
