    Learning Packet Activity Sheet No. 1 Date: December 11-17,2020


    Topic: Themes in the Philosophy of the Human Person, Week: 2
    Existentialism
    Learning Intent:
    At the end of Week 2, the students can:
    1. Discuss the different themes in the philosophy of the human person.
    2. Appreciate how the themes influence one’s perspective.
    3. Discuss existentialism by explaining its features.
    I. Concept Notes

    The study of the Philosophy of the Human Person is broad, and it covers many topics.
    However, we may notice some common themes in PHIHUM topics:
    1. Man as embodied subjectivity
    2. Man as being-in-the-world
    3. Man as being-with
    4. Man as persons and his crowning activity is love which presupposes justice

    Existentialism emerged in the postmodern era where philosophers started to emphasize the
    existence of the individual person as a free and responsible agent determining their own
    development.

    There are also many different approaches to the study of the human person, but one of the
    most prominently used by existentialists is phenomenology. Phenomenology is a method of
    inquiry based on the premise that reality consists of objects and events as they are
    perceived or understood in human consciousness and not of anything independent of human
    consciousness.
