This study explores the relationship between the philosophy of man and "non-objectifying thought," drawing on Karl Marx's critique of traditional materialism and his concept of subjectivity. The author critiques the metaphysical tradition and modern science for objectifying reality, which results in the exclusion of the active human subject and the reduction of the world to a set of finished things. Drawing on the ideas of Karel Kosík, the text argues that reality is incomplete without man and that revolutionary praxis is essential for its authentic grasp. The work further develops the concept of non-objectifying thought, which transcends the limits of objectifying intention and allows for a glimpse of truth and human existence in their historicity. The author compares the Greek metaphysical tradition with the Israeli prophetic tradition, pointing to the necessity of restructuring thought to bridge natural and human sciences. The goal is a new philosophy where the realization of humanity and truth occurs through the active humanization of the world.
