Philosophical anthropology

The relationship between the phenomenology of knowledge and the worldview of philosophical anthropology is based on the study of how human beings structure their relationship to reality on the basis of their lived experience. Philosophical anthropology, as exemplified by thinkers such as Max Scheler, Helmuth Plessner and Arnold Gehlen, seeks to define the human being not as a biological object, but as a subject who "has" a world. Phenomenology of Knowledge: Intentionality Phenomenology (founded by Husserl) postulates that consciousness is always "consciousness of something". Knowledge is not a simple accumulation of data, but an act by which the subject relates to the world. The return to things themselves: the aim is to describe how objects give themselves to consciousness before any scientific theory. Phenomenological reduction (epoch): This allows us to suspend our prejudices in order to examine the very structure of appearances. Intentionality: This is the thread that links the knowing subject to the known object in anthropology.
