Mickiewicza w Poznaniu Wydział Nauk Społecznych, Instytut Filozofii UAM, 2017) Mamali, CătălinThe study analysis three personalities who generated selfrecords for a long period of time on their personality development and especially on character questions. The autobiographies** of Franklin, Gandhi and Thoreau’s Walden experiment are studied as paradigmatic modes of enhancing intentionally one’s own autonomy as a necessary condition to increase the personal ability to cope with major social conflicts for the sake of common good. The educational value of Franklin’s methods for character training is based on practical exercises carried with students.Item Odpowiedź odpowiedzialności(Uniwersytet im. A. Mickiewicza w Poznaniu Wydział Nauk Społecznych, Instytut Filozofii UAM, 2017) Kubicka, DorotaIn philosophical thought of Janusz Korczak the idea of human freedom was connected with concepts of free will and responsibility. In this discussion man’s overexposed need for safety, was seen as biggest threat to freedom. Therefore Korczak argued with middle-class morality, which he was seeing as weak and lacking of spiritual core. Korczak had no doubts, that children should learn the basics of freedom by participating in decision concerning their own lives.Item „Bildung – wychowaniem do autentyczności?” Neohumanistyczne vs. romantyczne rozumienie koncepcji samokształcenia(Uniwersytet im. A. Mickiewicza w Poznaniu Wydział Nauk Społecznych, Instytut Filozofii UAM, 2017) Kopeć, AnnaThe article claims that the modern problem with subjectivity, lack of the self, has got its roots in Romanticism and a mistake made then. At the turn of 18th and 19th century authenticity was mistakenly identified with self-creation. This identification is connected with a change of understanding the conception of self-formation, Bildung. In order to show the change, the article presents neohumanistic understanding of Bildung (focused on J. W. Goethe and W. Humboldt) and romantic one (focused of F. Schlegel). By confronting these two approaches, the article presents the thesis that Bildung which leads to being a self, having an identity, cannot postulate independency from the world. However, although a man is responsible for the shape of his character, the content needed for the self-formation lies beyond himself.Item Biografia mnie wyzwoli… Jean-Paula Sartre’a projekt terapeutyczny(Uniwersytet im. A. Mickiewicza w Poznaniu Wydział Nauk Społecznych, Instytut Filozofii UAM, 2017) Bartosiak, KatarzynaSartre’s work, that can be placed between literature and philosophy, is an attempt to capture the human existence – both in its individual and general dimension (the latter is the human condition). As presented in Being and Nothingness, the purpose of this idea is to understand the fundamental project of human being and at the same time – in the form of existential psychoanalysis developed by Sartre – to uncover one’s original choice. Biographies are the exemplary realisation of this philosophical and literary therapy. As the author of Baudelaire, Saint Genet, The Family Idiot, Mallarmé and autobiographical Words Sartre claimed that writing the account of one’s life may be regarded as a method to gain immortality, self-knowledge and liberation, an attempt to escape bad faith and spirit of seriousness and a way of living authentically. Sartre’s psychoanalysis can be treated as his own therapeutic project also. Sartrean ‘purifying therapy’ can be used in counselling and psychotherapy practice as well as an autobiographical self-treatment.Item Medycyna estetyczna – humanistyczne dążenie czy „enhancement”?(Uniwersytet im. A. Mickiewicza w Poznaniu Wydział Nauk Społecznych, Instytut Filozofii UAM, 2017) Napiwodzka-Bulek, KarolinaThe aim of the paper is to consider the issue of modern aesthetic medicine considered as a humanism or, on the contrary, as human enhancement. The aim of enhancement is to improve and expand human possibilities in order to change their nature eventually. I present arguments for and against the thesis that aesthetic medicine might be considered as a typical humanistic aspiration for perfection. I pay close attention to the purpose criterion of medical practice by analyzing its therapeutic and aesthetic tasks.Item Instynkt – naśladownictwo – myślenie. Jak się uczą zwierzęta(Uniwersytet im. A. Mickiewicza w Poznaniu Wydział Nauk Społecznych, Instytut Filozofii UAM, 2017) Korpikiewicz, HonorataIn the article one considered bases of keeping himself animals in different living standards – during the care over young, in the play, on hunting and at dissolving more difficult problems. One underlined that the conviction about directing himself reflexes and „an instinct”, in the light of many present observations had appeared inadequate. Animals learn across the imitation and the observation of behaviour both representatives of their own sort as and other sort, eg. the man, and the trial method and errors – „the concrete thinking”. Observations show that there, where this is inadequate to dissolving of the problem, try to keep impromptu logical, similarly if this was made by the man, thinking abstractly. The statement so that with the thought and have the consciousness is not groundless anthropomorphism.Item Przekraczanie tradycji przyznawania człowiekowi uprzywilejowanej pozycji wobec zwierząt w aktach uobecniania indyferencji(Uniwersytet im. A. Mickiewicza w Poznaniu Wydział Nauk Społecznych, Instytut Filozofii UAM, 2017) Orlik, PiotrThe traditional view on the fact that animals have a lower status than humans were consolidated, among others, in the writings of Aristotle and Descartes. The traditional differences can, however, be questioned in the acts that are called by the author “the acts of anticipation of indifference”. In the following article two such acts of transcending the tradition of granting humans a privileged status in comparison to animals are indicated and analyzed: (1) in A treatise of human nature by David Hume and (2) in the philosophy of the ancient skeptic – Aenesidemus.Item „Civitas mensura” – obywatel miarą wszechrzeczy. Emancypacyjny i upodmiotawiający wymiar obywatelskiego humanizmu(Uniwersytet im. A. Mickiewicza w Poznaniu Wydział Nauk Społecznych, Instytut Filozofii UAM, 2017) Juchacz, Piotr W.The consideration of emancipatory and empowering dimension of civic humanism is the chief concern of the article. In the first part there are recalled classical Protagorean sources of European humanism with a special attention to its civic dimension. In the second part I analyse points 3 and 4 of The Amsterdam Declaration 2002 dedicated to the democratic political system. In the last part I propose and develop a thesis that co-participation of citizens in exercising of all three powers in deliberative democratic system – the legislative power (participation in the law-making processes), the executive (participation in creation and realisation of public policies) and the judicial (participation in the system of exercising justice as lay judges) - constitutes the foundation of contemporary humanism as civic activity.Item Levinas, Derrida i eschatoteleologia człowieka(Uniwersytet im. A. Mickiewicza w Poznaniu Wydział Nauk Społecznych, Instytut Filozofii UAM, 2017) Kałużny, DamianThis paper presents critics of teleological unity of western philosophy developed by Emmanuel Levinas and Jacques Derrida. One of the key elements of maintained critics is an attempt to redefine western concept of human being which is based on transcendental analyses. The article has two aims. The first is to show that presented by Derrida and Levinas concept of the Other which transcend teleological paradigm has to be formulated inside this paradigm. Philosophies of the Other are then not negative but rather affirmative critics of western philosophy. The second aim is to show that project of overcome the ontological pole of human’s temporal unity can be interpreted as the critic of critic.Item Człowiek bez ojczyzny – powtórzona lektura „Listu o humanizmie” Heideggera(Uniwersytet im. A. Mickiewicza w Poznaniu Wydział Nauk Społecznych, Instytut Filozofii UAM, 2017) Kołoczek, ŁukaszThe article is an attempt to read the Letter of humanism in the light of the project Beyng. First of all I say that the figure of Da-sein is crucial for understanding the Letter. My considerations focus in particular on the position which a man occupies in the structure of Da-sein. I show that there is an analogy between this structure and the considerations of the Letter. I say also that this letter made transposition of the term „humanism” into the other beginning. The project of humanism, which emerges from this text does not coincide neither with today’s varieties of humanism, nor the post-humanism, because both of these forms of thought are inscribed in metaphysics. In this context „no homeland” of which Heidegger says in the Letter, takes on special significance, which I wanted to show.Item Deskryptywność i normatywność – horyzonty dialogicznej wizji człowieka(Uniwersytet im. A. Mickiewicza w Poznaniu Wydział Nauk Społecznych, Instytut Filozofii UAM, 2017) Glinkowski, Witold P.Question about human is the basic thread of contemporary philosophy of dialogue. It does not cause neither systematic concept of human, nor any system of anthropology (in meaning proposed by twentieth-century initiators), but impacts on marginalization of anthropological imponderabilia. Negatively – it was caused by refusal anthropological projects belonging to philosophical heritage by Philosophers of Dialogue. Positively – it was related to new anthropological perspective formulated by these philosophers. By asking questions about human they amend the old yet still important oppositions: nature versus culture and nature versus history (being variant of this first one). The most essential matter in their perspective is opposition between what belongs to nature (different from biological assumptions) and what is relevant to normative perspective. This suspense between two planes – descriptive and prescriptive – seems to be a consequence of the philosophical assumptions of Philosophers of Dialogue and argument for polifonia of anthropological discourse.Item Przyrzekając niemoc. O duchu i egzystencji(Uniwersytet im. A. Mickiewicza w Poznaniu Wydział Nauk Społecznych, Instytut Filozofii UAM, 2017) Moryń, MariuszPresented article concerns existential sources and basis of humanism. The Author presents his own understanding of the title notions and describes human being as weak and incomplete in his essential nature – and whose duty is to hasten his passing. Human is understood as a spirit, existing in space of uncertainty, mystery, mortality, both demanding and somewhat fearsome. Presented considerations include a concept different from phenomenological understanding of human as a pure subject. The Author demonstrates that the theory of the absolute self-consciousness is based on absolute misery and oppression.Item Czy wiedza i kultura humanistyczna potrzebna jest współczesnemu człowiekowi?(Uniwersytet im. A. Mickiewicza w Poznaniu Wydział Nauk Społecznych, Instytut Filozofii UAM, 2017) Piotrowska, EwaTechnological progress and achievements are fundamental to social and economic progress. On the other hand however, they pose a threat to men, who fail to keep abreast of the pace and the results of the changes that take place. Science and education play therefore a crucial role in preventing the most significant problems. Dehumanisation is a real threat to the contemporary man. By means of analysing historical conditions for creating the term ‚Bildung’, in particular in Germany, I draw attention to how this idea could possibly be an alternative to the modern man.
