erich rothacker -lrb- march 12 , 1888 -- august 11 , 1965 -rrb- was a german philosopher , a leading exponent of philosophical anthropology .
his first major work , `` logik und systematik der geisteswissenschaften '' -lrb- logic of the human sciences , 1920 -rrb- , presents the view that actual historical individuals , whose cognitive equipment is partially created by a specific cultural community while at the same time constantly modifying it , are the elements that constitute the subject of knowledge , rather than a timeless universal entity as it is represented by descartes or locke .
