Based on an interpretation of the work of Martin Heidegger, this article offers a shift away from social and cultural anthropology, which explores sociocultural aspects, and also from general anthropology, which aims to summarise all dimensions of human being. The author defines the specificity of existential anthropology: observing and conceiving human beings as they exist and continue to exist towards death. With a few twists in relation to Heidegger’s thought, the author discusses what is theoretically and methodologically at stake in this perspective, opening existential anthropology to a large empirical field.

In the form of a short essay, this paper questions the conditions for describing the human individual as an entity with its own contour. The author criticises the classical expressions of social anthropology, whose observations and descriptions tend to dilute the human being. The author turns to Parmenides, Aristotle, and the mathematician René Thom to find grounds for describing the human being as a singular entity. On the other hand, in the notion of a volume of being, he finds a decisive lever allowing him to synthesise his theoretical proposal.

Artykuł skonstruowany w formie krótkiego eseju stawia pytania o uwarunkowania opisów jednostki ludzkiej jako podmiotu o wyraźnym kształcie. Krytykuje klasyczne sformułowania antropologii społecznej, które zwyczajowo rozmywają człowieka w swoich obserwacjach i opisach. Autor przywołuje myśli Parmenidesa, Arystotelesa i matematyka Renégo Thoma, aby znaleźć podstawy do opisu człowieka jako pojedynczej jednostki. Zarazem w pojęciu objętości bycia znajduje klucz pozwalający mu na syntezę jego propozycji teoretycznej.
