Max Scheler(1874—1928),the famous philosopher and phenomenologist of Germany in early years of 20th century .His theory of person based the foundation for to reveal the station and destiny of human and to verify the essence of human and significance of man as the man.We try to comment on Scheler's theory of person and to describe the foundation of phenomenological methodology of it and in order to achieve deep understanding of this theory.Person is the center and unification of human's action. It is the carrier of value and also is the carrier of the two values—goodness and evil. Without it, objective value rank can't be realized in human's behavior and the significance of value will lack; without it, goodness and evil can't become the moral standard for appraise human, too. In phenomenology of belief , person is the center which communicate human with the God and makes man's belief having depended foundation of itself. Then, there is the"love relation"between man of person and"person of person"—The God. Human and God"born and grow up"at the same. Person also is the center of spiritual action(including emotional and willing behavior) and is the junction of life(drang[German]) and spirit. Only through spiritual person can the eternal and perpetuation of human be realized. In a word, person is the essence of human and in the sense of person, the station of human in the cosmos can be founded.There is a foundation of phenomenological methodology in the theory of person. In other word,"person"was obtained through Ideation(seeing an essence) by Scheler .There are important significance and inspiration of the theory of person for our contemporary. |
