CHRISTIAN PRINCIPLES OF STRUCTURAL ANTHROPOLOGY

Journal Title: Філософські обрії - Year 2016, Vol 35, Issue 35

Abstract

The article analyses the anthropological problem of personal realization of human nature, which is caused by the way of its achievement. Ones double naturalness defines opposite ways of personal identification. On one hand, the guide to the outside of the natural determinism and fatalism is a mask - пρόσωπον (lat. Persona, face, mask) which conceals and disguises the failure of withdrawn self-existence. Quite a different way and fundamentally new methodological approach are opened by the Christian Revelation, in which the man does not open his personal arrangement but it is opened to him. The mask is no longer a mask and disguise but becomes the image detection of inner divine presence. So πρόσωπον reveals its semantic action and face mask changing face essential principle of existence. Thus, the human identity is the image of supernatural existence, made by typical for the nature characteristics in individual performance on its own behalf One’s own position sets the focal distance that can fundamentally change the mythological space of its existence. The opinion of the world, the marginal position, disclosed in many philosophical constructs itself not given this world, though it means. Personality - is the distance, that expands the space of human existence on earth-heaven vertically or on horizontal of history between the past and the future, or in anthropological terms, external and internal, freedom and determinism
