The author presents three main types of reference to human corporeality in the anti-Cartesian philosophical anthropology of the XX century: 1.The phenomenological description of the bodily experience (M. Merleau-Ponty. H. Schmitz, E. Strauss). 2.The constitutive role of human body in the structure of the definitions of humanity proposed by the classical philosophical anthropology of the XX century (M. Scheler, H. Plessner, A. Gehlen). 3.Human corporeality from the perspective of the historical anthropology (H. Schmitz, N. Elias). In the last fragment of his deliberations author shows the contemporary attempts of making the connection between the significant topics of the anthropology of human body and the ethical and aesthetic discourse (J. Habermas, G. Böhme).
