Humanism is a philosophical stance that emphasizes the value and agency of the human species, both individually and collectively. Humanism is non-dogmatic and open-ended. The meaning of the term humanism has fluctuated according to the successive intellectual movements which have identified with it. Generally, however, humanism is the belief that human beings are the source of meaning and values. Humanists see humanity as having the capacity for continued growth and development, and they affirm some notion of human freedom and progress. Humanism views humanity as responsible for the promotion and development of individuals, espouses the equal and inherent dignity of all human beings, and emphasizes a concern for humans in relation to the world. In practice, humanist philosophy advocates for the equal treatment of all people, regardless of their race, ethnic background, sex, gender, religion, or nationality.

Variants

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Pan-Humanism

Pan-humanism is the concept of an affiliation with the humankind through some sort of legislative structure that allows all technological and economic development to be for the benefit of the people. This co-insides with the idea of a world government, which would serve as a common political authority for all humanity, such as the idea of Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination World Federalism.

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Secular Humanism

Secular Humanism begins with atheism (absence of belief in a deity) and agnosticism or skepticism (epistemological caution that rejects the transcendent as such due to a lack of evidence). Because no transcendent power will save us, secular humanists maintain that humans must take responsibility for themselves. While atheism is a necessary condition for secular humanism, it is not a sufficient one. Far from living in a moral vacuum, secular humanists “wish to encourage wherever possible the growth of moral awareness and the capacity for free choice and an understanding of the consequences thereof.”


Secular humanism emerges, then, as a comprehensive nonreligious life stance that incorporates a naturalistic philosophy, a cosmic outlook rooted in science, and a consequentialist ethical system.[1]

Religious Humanism is a form of humanism that applies humanistic ethical philosophies on religious principles rather than secular principles.

History

Proto-Humanism

The origins of Humanism trace back to ancient Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Greece. Later on, these ideas moved to Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Rome. The famous philosopher Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Socrates spent a lot questioning the religion(s) practiced in ancient Greece. Socrates spent scientific thinking into digging the truth of religion and ethics. Of course, while this angered the local population and the elites, and he was sentenced to death for blasphemy, his systematic questioning lead many of his students such as Plato and Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Aristotle to take on after him, examining and justifying the truth before we can accept it as a fact. Aristotle had explored a lot of topics about the human being, such as deism, rationality, eudaimonia, etc. He wanted to explore what gave humans potential.

Humanism was very common in Greek art. It helped create a central focus on anthropologic art. He deeply misses thw Renaissance as well.

The Reinassance

The modern founding of Humanism was developed by poet and scholar Francesco Petrarca in the 14th century, who was believed to be the modern founder of the philosophy. While it was founded as a secular movement, Petrarca was very devout to Catholicism.

After his death, Humanism, at the time as "renaissance Humanism", or also "traditional Humanism" was defined as a broad cultural movement that revived set of classical texts and ideologies from the Roman and Greek times. It spread across all of Italy and later the rest of Europe, originating from Tuscany.

According to professor Angela Zimmerman, Humanism lead to the Prussian reforms by Karl Freiherr vom Stein, which Humanist Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Wilhelm von Humboldt performed in though his model of the human research institution.
