You must have not read my text, to which you just replied: you cannot use 'person' instead of 'man', because they mean two very different things! The meanings of each are written right there where you replied - how can you see them overlapping? 'Man' has the same root of "mind", it means "having a mind", but so many things have it, so it must be a special one, must it not? 'Person' is a mask - that thing in which the voice "per-sonat". It means the mask, the specific one - crying, laughing, irate, whatever. No, you cannot use 'person' if you do not mean "that with a personality" - because that is what it means.
