noun
A philosophical approach that views humanity as existing within dualities or contradictory states—both part of and apart from nature, simultaneously rational and irrational, harmonious and disruptive. Ambihumanism embraces the paradoxes inherent in human nature, seeking to reconcile the multiplicity of human conditions without prioritizing one aspect over another.
Etymology:
From Latin ambi, meaning “both” or “on both sides,” and humanus, “human,” suggesting an embrace of dual or opposing human characteristics.
Example Sentence:
Her ambihumanism reflects a worldview that neither glorifies nor condemns humanity but rather examines the coexistence of beauty and flaw within it.
