The current diversity of debates can be reduced to a pair of fundamental positions, both derived from opposing conceptualizations of man: either man is one more element of the physical nature in its distinct level of evolution, or man is elevated over everything that is just material, with a substantive difference that places him in a radically different and higher position. That is the difference signaled by the term Person. This article analyzes the metaphysical and constitutive origin of the superiority of Person, as well as the main ways to notice that greatness. All that departing from facts that we can all experience in ourselves and in those that surrounds us.
