Anthropology clarifies the vital conditions of bodily existence, which is why the relationship between humans and their bodies is the focus. In this volume Jens Heise compares two descriptions of man in the context of different anthropological, historical and cultural attitudes. In Plessner's anthropology, the principle of the unfathomable should apply universally and at the same time guarantee that in the most diverse answers to the question about man, what man is remains open. The ethics of the Japanese philosopher Watsuji (1889-1960) is a description of the human being that distinguishes itself from European modernism and philosophical anthropology. Watsuji wants to show that in East Asian cultures, existence is revealed through space and corporeality presents itself as a social body.
