Gyekye on Person and Okra
Explore Gyekye on personhood as prior to status and character.
“A human person is a person whatever his age or social status. Personhood may reach its full realization in community, but it is not acquired or yet to be achieved as one goes along in society. What a person acquires are status, habits, and personality or character traits: he, *qua* person, thus becomes the subject of acquisition, and being thus prior to the acquisition, he cannot be defined by what he acquires.”
