Sažetak
This paper focuses on an attempt of understanding of a man as a characteristic of a philosophical anthropology at the beginning of the 20th century. In particular, it refers, to the category of eccentric position of a man in relation to the other forms of life as formulated by Helmuth Plessner, one of the main representatives of this type of philosophical anthropology. The principal argument of the article is a perception of theological interpretation of Plessner’s category of man’s eccentricity by the evangelical theologian Wolfhart Pannenberg. Positively evaluating and accepting Plessner’s philosophical-anthropological postulates, Pannenberg sought to expand them much further in the theological perspective, thus endeavouring to demonstrate the necessity of acceptance of religious dimension in characteristics and, generally accepted, anthropological phenomena. The paper attempt to show the measure in which these types of theological interpretations are desirable and possible. Also, it appoints to some critical remarks regarding Pannenberg’s attempt of theological approach to the results of a strictly philosophical anthropology.
