The Conception of the Human Being according to H. Plessner and A. Gehlen in the philosophical anthropology
 JANOUŠKOVÁ, Hana
My thesis deals with the position of the human being in the nature from the point of view of two representatives of philosophical anthropology {--} H. Plessner and A. Gehlen. According to Plessner the exceptionality of the man consists in their eccentric form of being, which means that their existence is not fixated on their centre as it is at animals and plants. As a result of this, human behavior is autonomous. It is not a mere program of animal instincts, but human beings are able to make decisions and thanks to their brain they can give their lives the right orientation. Gehlen presents a human being as a being in necessity. According to him the human race is a result of imperfections. The nature did not equip it with sufficient amount of instincts and organs, which would make its being at any place on the Earth easier. People live all over the world and they have to put in a lot of strain to survive. They create their own natural environment in which they are able to live. Both authors describe the human being as an extraordinary being. They point out that only thanks to their own initiative people are able to overcome imperfections in their biological equipment and to leave unmistakable marks in their surroundings {--} that is the culture.
