Philosophy of man is the study of man and its philosophy in life that is subdivided into many

branches such us ethics, metaphysics natural philosophy etc.


PHILOSOPHY came from the Greek word PHILO meaning Love and SOPHIA meaning
wisdom, French believe that PHILO means friendship rather than Love cause they believe that
Love is a state of confusion, mallicious intentions mixed up w/ pure intention
(attraction/physical aspect).

Philosophy
A philosophy is a system of beliefs about reality. It is one's integrated view of the
world. It includes an understanding of the nature of existence, man, and his role in the
world. Philosophy is the foundation of knowledge. It is the standard by which ideas
are integrated and understood.
Philosophy is a necessary product of man's rational mind. To live, man must gain
knowledge of the world. To understand the world, man must form conclusions about
its very nature. For instance, to gain knowledge of particular objects, man must
recognize that objects have identity. He must recognize that conclusions are possible
because the world does exist, and exists in a particular way.
Philosophy provides the framework for which man can understand the world. It
provides the premises by which man can discover truth, and use his mind to support
his life. Every man has an understanding of the world. Every man must have a
philosophy, even if it is never made explicit.

it talks about man as a rational being, a social being, a being that exists in this reality, a
solitary being, a being that is different from other beings, the capabilities of such being, just
the way you asked this question, philo of man basically talks about man, the whole reality
about man
