Abstract

Max Picard's philosophical reflections are, unfortunately, very little known in our days. However, it is an original thinker, with a peculiar style and author of unique philosophical works that decisively influenced the development of contemporary philosophy, especially in the field of philosophical anthropology and the understanding of the limits of the Modernity. The focus of this paer is to offer an analysis from an antropological perspective of the concept of the human face, based on its manifestation as Imago Dei, to demonstrate the importance of this concept in the understanding of the human person as a spiritual unity and as a manifestation of the eternal in time.
