This text explores the ontological and biological prerequisites of human life, emphasizing that a person truly becomes themselves only through relationships with others. Birth alone does not mark the completion of becoming human, a fact recognized by ancient cultures through various initiation rituals that validated an individual's entry into society. From a scientific perspective, humans are born "prematurely," allowing for active social and linguistic intervention from the environment during what is effectively an extra-uterine embryonic stage. The first year of life is a crucial period where biological maturation intertwines with socialization and cultivation, processes that are not genetically determined. The author challenges the reductionist view that the physical and genetic status is a fixed foundation upon which education is merely an ornamental addition. Instead, the text argues that social interaction and cultural influences are integral to human development from the very beginning. Humanity is thus presented as a product of the inseparable link between biological evolution and active social intervention.
