Starovoitov, V. V. Did an ancient greek have a personality?

Abstract: The author of the article refutes the point of view of professors A.F. Losev and I.S. Kon that ancient Greeks had no notion about the idea of personality. It is shown that belief of ancient Greeks in fate in no way relieved the person of responsibility and that the necessity for the citizen of the police independently to take decisions in multiple changing situations presupposed a person with intelligent self-consciousness and strong Self.


Keywords:
