Abstract

It is interesting to note that the idea of "the new man" was not exclusively a prerogative of the ancient thinkers but also of modern philosophical thinking. Kant, Schopenhauer, Hegel or Marx suggest new types of "new man", types which preserve the characteristics inherited from within (Pre)Christian tradition. "Demythologizing" the Bible, the liberal theology will build a new "new man" model of secular society. According to Warren Young, secularization means integrating human life in the spirit of a certain age rather than integrating it in God or living as if the natural order were absolute and there were no God. Moreover, the notion of secularization has a canonical connotation (a religious man changes his status from religious to secular), a legal connotation (to transfer the goods of the Church into the public domain), but also a cultural connotation (suggesting the emancipation of contemporary life by mean of refusing to obey the authority of Christian theology). Thus, the present article analyzes the evolution of the idea of "free man" versus "new man" (or "religious man") within secularization.
