Abstract:

Unlike the common blood, humanism is not directly related to "loving people". The emphasis of humanism on the dignity and freedom of man is directed not to man as a biological species, but to man as a built cultural existence. Therefore, for humanism, "humanity" is not a characteristic of the biological human nature, but a characteristic of the culture and education that makes it self-material. Humanism is a belief that sees the mind and will of man as the source of all kinds of moral, political and aesthetic knowledge and values, and that this mind and will are the only elements that are not subject to mechanical law, except to the determinist natural function. One of the consequences of this principle is the idea that the natural is the "servant of mankind". This explains the close relationship of technology with humanism. In the universe depicted by mechanical physics, the problem of the “responsible essence” has been solved by technology as a human understanding of humanism and as both an activity and a form of understanding. In the 17th and 18th centuries, the ideals of illumination will rise over this synthesis.
