According to Sociology, the man is seen from its condition of social interaction An including definition of the human being, that it searchs to contemplate the totality of its to exist and its place in the order of cosmo is the task of the Philosophical Anthropology 1. This if occupies of the problem of the man or to answer the question ' ' what he is the man? How the man knows as must act, as appeared? ' ' The philosophy of that we are speaking is the occidental person, that it appeared in Greece, in century V a. C. with Plato and Aristotle. The philosophy Greek, differently of the others, is characterized for the logical-deductive reasoning.
According to K. Armstrong 1994, while in the east it is privileged experience, in ocidente, the Greeks was interested apaixonadamente for logic and the reason.
