Abstracts

EN
Zygmunt Szczęsny Feliński in his works "Prakseda" ["Prakseda"] and "Oskar i Wanda" ["Oscar and Wanda"] talks about the problem of loss which is at the same time resignation. The protagonists accept misfortunes that befall on them, treating these misfortunes as necessity to reach higher goals such as spiritual maternity. The author took this attitude to loss from Christian philosophy – it is closely related to Divine Providence which creates the fate of the world without intervening with the human’s free will.
