'Life is not only an "event" that happens--but also something that is suffered'; this is the core principle of what Viktor von Weizsäcker (1886-1957), the German physician and founder of a 'Medical Anthropology', called the 'pathic' dimension. The personal voice of the human being himself becomes a constitutive principle within the medium of science. Concepts of cause and effect are no longer applicable in the customary functional sense of aetiology. Even the intellect or spirit (Geist) can no longer be regarded as unscathed. In order to handle pathic 'causality' Weizsäcker introduced his 'pathic pentagram'. The interplay of five modalities--must / may / want / should / can--creates a ground or reason of psychological and/or somatic explanation. Necessity and freedom of a person appear interwoven in a constitutive manner.
“生命不仅是一件发生的‘事件’——也是一种遭受的东西”；这是德国医生、“医学人类学”创始人维克托·冯·魏茨泽克（1886 - 1957）所称的“情感”维度的核心原则。人类自身的个人声音成为科学媒介中的一个构成性原则。因果概念不再适用于病因学中惯常的功能意义。甚至理智或精神（Geist）也不能再被视为未受影响。为了处理情感“因果关系”，魏茨泽克引入了他的“情感五角星”。“必须/可能/想要/应该/能够”这五种模态的相互作用创造了一种心理和/或躯体解释的基础或理由。一个人的必然性和自由以一种构成性的方式交织在一起。
