DIGNITY OF MAN. THE QUERY ABOUT THE INDISPUTABLY ACKNOWLEDGED CONCEPT
Henning Ottmann
; Geschwister Scholl Institut Sveučilišta u Münchenu, München, Njemačka
Sažetak
The author analyses the concept of human dignity in historical and logical perspectives of its meaning. The key terms are: (a) dignity as an attribute of humanity; (b) the meaninglessness of this notion in some historical periods; (c) human dignity as human achievement; (d) human dignity as human potential; (e) human dignity as belonging to humanity. Then he goes on to stress the superiority of dignity as such over the acquired dignity. And finally, the author concludes that human dignity is inviolable, both in the virtues of its autonomous subjectivity and in its deviations: in the fallacy, deception, guilt, and awareness of one’s own finality.
