Abstract

The ontogeny of the anthropology consists in returning to the history of the discipline, of its formation. It involves studying its institutional and intellectual development.The philosophical anthropology is an essential matrix of the current anthropology; its study allows us to understand the historic shape of intellectualization of the concepts and the work of definition which notably begins in the XVI century with Montaigne and in the XVIII century with Kant. As a consequence, the philosophy was the armature of the ontogeny of the anthropology and allowed to propose a universal frame of analysis on the world and men.
