This work focuses on the Nédoncelle´s anthropology. It sustains that the French thinker defends that man is not simple, but rather presents in itself a real distinction between the person and human nature. The person is a multiple reality in men: spiritual, interior, new, unique, relational... Nature, which is organic, is common in men. The person is also distinguished from personality and the self, because it cannot be classified in types. The person depends on God and is immortal; the human nature comes from the parents and is mortal. He adds that the ‘ideal self’, the vocation, is superior to the human person in his actual situation.
