Seminar paper from the year 2006 in the subject Pedagogy - Theory of Science, Anthropology, University of Paderborn, language: English, abstract: The aim of this paper is the representation of the human image of humanism using Rogers as a representative of humanism and the illustration of this using an example. In the first chapter, the definition of “image of man” follows. In the second chapter, the main theses of humanism are explained and underpinned by Carl Rogers' theory of client-centred psychotherapy. In the third chapter, the humanistic image of man and Roger's theory are applied to an example. Finally, a statement on humanistic theory follows. Human behavior can be explained if one knows what image of man a person has. That means on the one hand the image of man is an explanatory model for a person's behavior and on the other hand you can develop specific action strategies based on this if you know what image of man a person has. You can interpret problems or situations on the basis of a human image. (cf. König 2005, p.34) Every human image is always linked to a conviction or a teaching and every human being has a very specific human image or a mixture of different human images, even if people are not always aware of this fact. For example, I would not claim of myself that I always represent a humanistic view of man. There are many images of man in education, such as the rationalistic, behavioristic or humanistic image of man. The latter will be discussed in more detail.
