Literature review


• Provide a vision of mankind nature that entails man as an infallible judge of good and evil.
• Making human the center of the scheme of things that surrounds.
• When natures are seen to be a product of our mind, all that is left of the original trials of self-presence just in truth.
• We should trust our feelings since emotions are perceived as a prism, which alters the shape and colors of past and present life.
• Our memory of objective facts is colored by present feelings and motivation.
• Subjective truth is prior to and more fundamental (more authentic) than object objective truth.
• Life is something we carry within us, and it is up to each of us to cultivate it and express it in our own personal ways
• Socrate’s concept of “know thyself”, human are regarded as parts of a wider cosmic totality.
• Thus knowing yourself involved knowing above all what is your place in that complex pattern.
• Our authenticity is defined by our nature as this fits into the overall practices and background of life of the world as a whole entity.
• The influence of society in constructing our self-understanding is evident.
• Grew up in great part in interaction with culture, it is incapable of directing our behavior or organizing our experience without the guidance provided (by culture’s) systems of significant symbols.
• Without men, no culture, certainly; but equally, and more significantly, without culture, no men.
• It is up to you to determine the overall shape your life will have.
• Is to identify what really matters in the historical situation in which you find yourself and to take a resolute stand on pursuing those ends.
• Must have an understanding of what is of crucial importance to you, and that means knowing where you stand within a context of questions about what is truly worth pursuing in life.
• What shapes your identity, according to this picture, is determined by what you identify with: the life-defining ideals and projects that make you who you are.
• It is less important what you believe and feel than how deep those feelings and beliefs are.
• The crucial concern is being true to the inner self as it reveals itself and expressing it openly.

My first idea of project would be then a sort of critic of this scientific supremacy. Current DNA analyses bring about an inaccurate truth and significant data are missing to determine one’s identity.
