Summary/Abstract: The text begins with the question: And yet what is man? The ancestral essence of man is related to infinitely multidirectional facts and characteristics. The essence of man is not simple, it is too complex. It cannot fit into one, or even several definitions. Whatever we may say about man is related to his versatile nature. Man can be regarded and interpreted in different aspects. One of these aspects is something that is in the middle, a quantitative and qualitative quantity (characteristics) which has nothing to do with extremes and excessions.Man in the middle is not a multi-directional but a unidirectional consideration. It is not a comprehensive consideration of man but is essential and significant because it emphasizes the measure and the norm. Normality stands out the most almost determinately when man is in the middle. This consideration and interpretation of man is concrete, visible, obvious and does not need any complicated mental proof. Its perception and rationalization is achieved at an empirical, sensory, life level. In terms of life, every person could reason and reflect on the man in the middle or on the normal person. Because that person is not hidden or invisible. That person is visible and almost impossible to hide.
