Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to introduce a reflection on the fundamental question of philosophical anthropology: What is a man according to ancient Greek drama and theater? The „grasp“ of the human nature in drama is visible in the works of the three most important playwriters of ancient Greece: Sophocles, Aeschylus and Euripides. The heroes of ancient Greek drama are thrown into a destiny conflict that determines them, their passion, aspiration and their rationality. This issue also relates to Plato‘s and other philosophers‘ later efforts to grasp systematically issues of philosophical anthropology.
