The article presents an attempt of interpretation of the last story by Turgenev from the point of view of theatre as a specific cultural and social phenomenon. This approach enables us 1) to distinguish between concepts of drama and tragedy as they are used in the text and metatext of the story; 2) to get out of the text’s boundaries and to involve biographical and historical contexts to the analysis.

This essay aims to analyse the Parmenides’ interpretation that Laura Gemelli Marciano offered in the Eleatica lectures. The scholar represents the Parmenidean Poem as a mystical experience where sounds, words and images communicate and produce a real approach to the divine reality at the same time. This intriguing reading, which closely follows that offered by Kingsley, understimates the problems and cognitive structures of rational thought in the poem. Thus Parmenides appears to be a shaman rather a philosopher.

The text discusses the importance and contribution of political philosophy outlined by Aristotle to the current context of civic education. It analyzes Aristotle’s thinking about who a citizen of polis is, how he becomes a citizen, which characteristics he should have and finally it explains how such a citizen should be educated. One of the means preferred by Aristotle is music, its melodic and rhythmic significance, thanks to which a citizen habits the virtues. This concept of education is an expression of growing mythic-poetic experience that can be transferred by the humanistic and educational courses.

According to various theories of religion human beings are in a specific relationship with the Absolute. A human being feels a glorious power standing in front of him. And the answer to this relationship is the adoration of God, not to es-cape, which is normal with physical fear. The Absolute is the most sacred, holy and transcendent being. The Absolute’s existence is surrounded by sacred space and sa-cred time which we call – sacrum. How to understand sanctity? There are two ways – a kind of understanding called mythos which can be compared with mythical way of exploring sacred space and the second way of understanding called logos, which is a logical view of the world. Both ways should be complementary to lead every human being straight to the truth about God. Christian theology adds that the real sanctity materialized when people start to love God and each other. Love itself is a real name of God and the real sacrum in the world and in a human's heart.

The principle of history of effect, introduced by the initiator of philosophical hermeneutics, Hans-Georg Gadamer, which maintains in direct relation to his idea of horizon and his interpretation of such concepts as understanding, tradition, prejudice/prejudgment, constitutes in this paper the basis for attempt of application of the recommendations of this thinking construct for elucidation of transformations that have taken place over time within the field of understanding of the mythos and logos concepts. As a result, on a more general level, appears a critical attitude towards often present nowadays instrumental treatment of questions as well as concepts, while these two constitute fundamental aspects of the linguistic dimension. Whereas, on a more detailed level, the thesis on a non-ancient Greek origins of the present in modern European culture opposition of myth and reason is advanced.

Wyprowadzona przez twórcę hermeneutyki filozoficznej Hansa-Georga Gadamera zasada dziejów skutkujących, pozostając w bezpośredniej relacji z jego figurą horyzontu, jego wykładnią m.in. takich pojęć jak rozumienie, tradycja, przesądy-przedsądy, stanowi w niniejszym artykule podstawę dla próby zastosowania zaleceń powyższej konstrukcji myślowej dla naświetlenia przemian, jakie dokonały się na osi czasu w obszarze rozumienia pojęć mythos i logos. W rezultacie na bardziej ogólnym poziomie wyłania się krytyczne ujęcie często obecnego współcześnie instrumentalnego traktowania zarówno pytań, jak i pojęć stanowiących zasadnicze aspekty płaszczyzny językowej. Natomiast na poziomie bardziej szczegółowym ukazuje się teza o swoiście poza-starogreckich źródłach opozycji mitu i rozumu w europejskiej kulturze nowożytnej.
