Performance Task:
As a philosophy student journeying towards transcendental experiences through the aid of human reason. You are inviting to reflect on a concrete experience in
philosophical way. There are certain insights or themes of discussion that have been highlighted in philosophy of Man. Such as the human person was not limited only to his rationality but
also
viewed as embodied subjectivity. This involves his/her affections, emotions and holistic approaches to acknowledge his nature as a “person or personhood.” With this manner, you are
expecting
to make a REACTION PAPER about the proposition, “MADALING MAGING TAO, MAHIRAP MAGPAKATAO”, as your modest attempt to lay philosophical understanding. You are going to
consult the ideas of your chosen philosopher about the latter. The aim of this REACTION PAPER is to expose a philosophical line of thought of the philosophers given. In the contemporary
society, we have been wandering a lot of questions that form different perspectives in understanding the question, “what is man” to “who is man”. The world of man is centered or anchored
in his understanding about his own inquiry in the reality on how was the human person came to have its meaning and purpose in this world. You are expecting to explain the philosophical
understanding of the human person in the perspective of your chosen philosopher.
