• Description:
  The title of this academic work presents the opposition of the identity and the person in miscellaneous references. Both categories relate to the importance of the human condition with the reference to human himself, others and the world. They do thus, however, in a different, even opposite way. Identity proof is being sought in narratives, collective memory, body, gender, recognized symbolism of the local and the global ideas. There are temporary factors, therelative ones, whichare tangled in the circumstances that are involved superficially. Hence, the conditions of postmodernism lack of the classical approach of a human being. Relinquishment of metaphysical approach and dependence of a man from the determinant pointed out in contemporarybiologisticstudy in ethology and sociobiology. What is more, the omission of human nature in postmodern philosophy finds footing in the practice of narratives andperformatives. It seems as if it is the only way to preserve the status of the individualism in relation to everything whatdeprives it of separateness and independence. It turns out, however, that the individual within one’s own subjectivity experience himself in metaphysical terms, though at the same time being influenced by ideology of postmodernism does not consider, nor explicitly articulate this ontological own status in the cultural discourses. This situation shows the need for metaphysical reflection on the man and the understanding of the human being as a person. Properties of a person pointed out in the Neo-Scholastic Thomism include: freedom, consciousness, ability to make heroic affirmation, legal subjectivity, completeness (totality) and essentially guaranteed dignity. The importance of the person category is completed by the concept of ethical personalism. High ontological status frees the individual from seeking immediate and superficial security of its own identity. It also puts an end to extreme individualism. Individual people’s indelible attitude of their uniqueness and autonomy remains within themselves. The existence of this benchmark obliges the participants of the individual and social relations to respect and affirm one another.
