ABSTRACT
According to Ernst Cassirer, who is regarded as one of the greatest thinkers of the
twentieth century, the highest aim of philosophical research is “Self-knowledge, and this
aim is most clearly expressed in contemporary philosophy (cited in Arat, 1980).
Therefore, when we say self-knowledge, we think of human knowledge. In this context,
we have to ask ourselves a question; So What is Human? If the highest aim of philosophy
is to know oneself, what is the natural way of knowing and understanding oneself? is to
seek an answer to the question. The highest aim of the nursing profession, which naturally
takes its source from human beings, whose only field of occupation is human, and which
will continue to exist as long as humanity exists, should also be to understand human.
