The question whether the enlightenment is sudden or gradual is an important problem of Zen philosophy and remains the source of vivid discussions. A phenomenological analysis, which has been undertaken by the author, has resulted in one of its possible solutions. He has stated that the two views: the first – that the enlightenment is sudden, and the second – that it is a consequence of training, render perception of practitioners from two perspectives: meditative state of consciousness and ordinary state of consciousness. His comprehension of these views implies that they are separate in a sense and they neither contradict nor complement each other.

This study analyses one of the aspects of J. B. Metz´s political theology, more precisely its anthropological aspect; it contrasts the means and objectives of the political theology with the "non-political politics". Political theology itself is one of the unofficial branches of the present-day Catholic theology; theology after the Second Vatican Council. It distinguishes itself critically from the neo-tomistic interpretation of the world – from the neo-tomistic metaphysics which depicts the world in the dichotomy of the good God and the evil human. Political theology at the background of Kant´s criticism of ontotheology emphasizes „sinful“, ordinary people and their world. It aims to construct a unified world without the superstructure of the religious supernatural; it treats man as a subject that thinks god and is his partner at the transformation of the world. According to J.B. Metz, the anamnestic reason, memoria passions, is the tool for the transformation of the world = the uncompleted Enlightenment project.

The Enlightenment represents a frequently reflected and, at the same time, also updated tradition. The Enlightenment ideas have become a theoretical-methodological base for thinking as such by its connection to a social or social-political praxis, what can be seen even in the contemporary confrontation with the Enlightenment legacy. The paper analyses the Enlightenment as a unique historical phenomenon – it deals with its explicit as well as its practical-political features – within the Russian milieu. In the basic outline, the paper presents a critical survey of the selected bibliographical sources. It primarily focuses on a historical-philosophical problematics and identification of three phases which can be found within a genesis of the Enlightenment thinking in Russia. The second part of the paper offers the characteristics of distinctive intellectual environments participating in a forming of the Enlightenment tradition in Russian thinking, and overlapping into actual political and social happenings. To these environments belong aristocratic associations, the Masonic lodges, and also educational institutions established and controlled by the state – spiritual academies and universities.

The article focuses on political thinking in the 18th century Russia, which preceded the 19th and 20th century Russian liberalism. It is divided into two sections. The first sections focuses on certain difficulties connected with clarification of the term Russian liberalism (or more precisely liberalism in Russia) and the course of its existing research, i.e. the heterogeneous periodicity of Russian liberalism, the problematic specification of the term 'liberal' in the Russian milieu and the fluctuation of liberalism in Russia from positive to pejorative nuances. The second section pursues viewpoints of political thinkers and the development of public political life in the 18th century Russia, which was followed by Russian liberalism in the 19th and 20th century. The author pays attention to political ideas and standpoints of I. T. Pososhkov, D. M. Golicyn and V. N. Tatishchev and their attempts to weaken the tsarist power in 1730. He analyses the rise and advance of public movement and West European political thinkers' influence on the Russian political activity in the second half of the 18th century. Next, he analyses constitutionals projects of N. I. Panin, P. I. Panin and D. I. Fonvizin and ideas of S. J. Desnickij and A. N. Radishchev.

The article acquaints the reader with the eminent catholic Austrian biblical scholar and orientalist Johann Jahn (1750–1816). Born in Moravia, he taught the Old Testament and oriental languages in Vienna. His brilliance was recognized throughout Europe by both Catholic and Protestant scholars. He faced various problems due to opposition from certain scholars in Hungary and also because of the new educational reforms imposed by the Emperors Joseph II, and Franz I of Austria. He influenced various generations of students of biblical theology in the Austrian empire.

The paper seeks to present a conception of the didactics of logic according to Jean Alexis Borrelly (1738-1810), the author of among others 'Plan de réformations des etudes élémentaires' (La Haye 1776) and a textbook for logic 'Elémens de l'art de penser, ou la logique, réduite a ce qu'elle a d'utile' (Berlin 1777). The legacy of Borrelly summarises the tendencies typical of the Enlightenment with regard to 1) reforms of education, 2) redefining values in the didactics of philosophy, and 3) modification in the then logic. The presentation has a twofold structure. In part one the author presents some specific characteristics of Borrelly's didactic plan against the background of school reforms. Part two is devoted to the teaching of logic: 1) the nature of logic in the didactic curriculum, 2) its realization in Borrelly's textbook for logic, and that against the background of modern tendencies in reforming a conception of this discipline. This is in particular with regards to the theory and practice of the didactics of logic in Polish school reforms contemporary to Borrelly's accomplishments. It has been pointed out that both at the declarative level and in the textbooks Borrelly's conception is an example of eclectic achievements typical of the Enlightenment. They come to terms with the radical solutions (e. g. Descartes, Locke), hostile to formal logic, with school requirements, a fact that makes Borrelly's solution to be one of the standards characteristic, for instance, of the popular 'Logic of Port-Royal' by A. Arnauld and P. Nicole.

Janos Foldi (1755-1801), a doctor by profession, was a prominent member of a great generation of Hungarian writers, poets and grammarians in the age of Enlightenment, fighting for the use of Hungarian in science and education. His main goal was to establish the Hungarian terminology of natural sciences. Preparing for that task, he wrote the first comprehensive grammar of Hungarian in Hungarian, thereby also creating the Hungarian terminology of linguistics. The paper summarizes the results and deficiencies of Foldi's grammar (including a study on Hungarian versification). Foldi was also the first to publish a Hungarian zoology, and a book on the principles of compiling the Hungarian terminology of botany. His terminological proposals are also discussed and evaluated.

In Central and Southern Europe, conscious and planned language reform movements started to unfold in the late eighteenth century, culminating in the middle of the nineteenth. The emergence of specialized terminologies of Czech, Hungarian, and Croatian (as well as, to some extent, of Serbian) shows a number of similarities. Their mental roots can be found in the ideas of the enlightenment. Their fundamental aim was to express, in the respective mother tongues, the new terms of civilization in the broadest sense. That aim was served by the language reform movements whose earliest significant results were embodied in German-based terminological dictionaries of the various Slavonic languages published in the mid-nineteenth century. This paper deals with the reasons, antecedents, and results of those movements.

Józef Szymanowski was born in 1748. His parents were Maciej Szymanowski, Starosta (Constable) of Wyszogród, later Kasztelan (Lord-Lieutenant) of Rawa, and Anna neé Luszczewska. After completing his education at the prestigious Piarist Collegium Nobilium in Warsaw, he was admitted into the Czartoryski court, first with August Aleksander, later with Adam Kazimierz. The accomplished young man also caught the eye of King Stanislaw August Poniatowski, who invited him regularly to his 'Thursday dinners' and in 1773 elevated him to the rank of Royal Chamberlain. Between 1768 and 1774 Szymanowski accompanied Adam Kazimierz Czartoryski in his foreign travels. In 1770 he started publishing his poems in 'Zabawy Przyjemne i Pozyteczne' (Pleasant and Useful Entertainment): it was, however, a verse translation of Montesquieu's 'The Temple of Venus at Cnidos' that established his reputation as a poet. In 1780 and 1782 he was elected to the Sejm from the County of Sochaczew. In 1780-1784 he headed the Treasury Commission. In 1791-1792 he was a member of a commission charged with the task of drawing up a new Codex of Civil and Criminal Law (aka Stanislaw August's Codex). During Kosciuszko's insurrection he served as a judge of the Duchy of Mazowsze Criminal Court at the Interim State Council and then Deputy Councillor of the Supreme National Council and de facto head of the Justice Department. After Polands fall he withdrew from public life to his landed estate at Grady near Blonie. Five years later, however, we find him again in Warsaw where, in November 1800, his name appears on the list of the founder-members of the Warsaw Society of the Friends of the Science. He died on 15 February 1801 in Warsaw.

The paper focuses on the Enlightenment as an important object of the German tradition of philosophical-cultural researches and debates. It starts with an analysis of Kant's model of 'Aufklärung', underlining its social dimension. In Hegel's conception of the Enlightenment, the problem is approached critically and included in the process of the phenomenological-philosophical-historical development of mind. Hegel, unlike Kant, is historicizing, and thus narrowing the term of the enlightenment itself. In conclusion the author asks the question: Is it reasonable to see the real nature of the Enlightenment only in its fighting against mistakes, superstitions and prejudices?

The paper examines the relationship between ancient Cynicism and his modern counterpart - cynicism. Ancient Cynicism is a strictly ethical way of life, while modern cynicism despises all ethical values. Ancient Cynicism is said to be a 'shortest way to virtue' and is characterized by its commitment to a life in agreement with nature, radical freedom, self-sufficiency and by the absence of philosophical theory in favour of practical, lived philosophy. Modern cynicism is a result of a long lasting history of interpreting and misunderstanding of ancient Cynicism (mainly the Cynic's life in agreement with nature and his ascetic practices, which were often seen as a crude shamelessness). However, cynicism is the consequence of 'the unfulfilled promises' of Enlightenment. It is a reason turned against reason itself. The paper offers a brief history of the reception of Cynicism on its way toward the modern cynicism.

For several years the poetry of the members of Philomat’s Society was held in rather low esteem, with the exception of Mickiewicz’s poems. It should be acknowledged that the large collection of Philomats’s works requires rereading and reinterpretation. This article focuses on the anacreontics that were written and improvised by Vilnius students. It seems that this genre especially attracted young poets who eagerly experimented with old literary conventions. I shall argue that Philomath’s feast verses, although deeply rooted in the established tradition, can be read as a modernized version of anacreontic poetry. One can notice a significant shift, in terms of motifs and style of expression, towards Romantic aesthetics.

The author of the paper shows, by using numerous examples, a connection between Enlightenment and breeding (Zucht) as well as multiple meanings that the notion of breeding acquired in the course of philosophical-cultural reflection. He raises objections against Peter Sloterdijk and refutes his claim that Nietzsche supposedly was a supporter of 'small breeding' because he intuited an inevitable fight over the directions of man's formation.

For Enlightenment, in the middle of 18th century, it is significant to understand nature in the categories of physical and moral order. Providence plays special role in it: it guarantees this order, but, at the same time, it is subordinated to the rules of that order rigorously. In this perspective, monsters and natural disasters, i.e. contingent accidents, through which nature seems to negate itself and to question its rational order, are of special interest and, from an epistemological point of view, are quite confusing. Earthquake, which on 1st November 1755 happened in Lisbon, provokes a lot of impetuous discussions. In this essay the author describes polemics in this matter between Voltaire and Rousseau, and the later standpoint by Condorcet.

The paper is a study designed for the teaching of the history of philosophy in Poland. It deals with the intellectual portrait of Stanislaw Staszic (1755-1826), a learned naturalist, socio-political writer and philosopher. Staszic philosophical views place him within the phliosophy of Enlightenment which, through its preference for empiricism, hence the natural and historical science, is reluctant to metaphysics. In fact, however, Staszic holds thesisses fundamental for Christian outlook, he rationalizes them, especially in the case of the naturalistic analysis of the development of religion. A special place in his writings is occupied by the philosophy of history. It is oriented at education and finds the dynamism of history in the ways one satisfies one's needs. Ethics and economic reflection remain under the influence of utilitarian tendencies of physiocracy in the form of an empirical analysis of laws of nature.

The text will observe the adaptation an exemplary work like the Illiad of Homer in the period of the Bulgarian Revival. The scientific reflection on the familiar trend of „artistic-creation“ of „redrawing“ of the source text to the expectations of the perceived literature is very significant. Not surprisingly the reception of Homer creates a constructive field for the critical thinking in the cultural situation in the Bulgarian national Revival. The new type of readership is build up from the self-knowledge of the new type of literary criticism.

The long second part of Hegel’s Lectures on the Philosophy of Religion, the “Determinate Religion,” constitutes his historical account of the religions of the world. The inordinate length of this section has caused many scholars to wonder why Hegel feels the need to give such a detailed analysis of the historical development of the different religions if his goal in the end is to make a case for the truth of Christianity. This has led to a degree of puzzlement about the “Determinate Religion” section. As a result, this section is not often treated in the secondary literature. Hegel developed his own approach to religion in large part in response to the views coming from the Enlightenment and Romanticism. He was highly critical of different aspects of these movements, which he saw as undermining the truth of religion. In the present article the author wishes to examine his critical intuitions vis-à-vis these views. His proposal is that by seeing Hegel’s philosophy of religion as a response to the main trends of the Enlightenment and Romanticism, we can understand why he felt that he needed to spend so much time with the different world religions.

The present study is based on the work of the moral theologist Augustin Zippe: 'Anleitung in die Sittenlehre der Vernunft und der Offenbarung' (Prague 1778). The main goal was to point to the openness in the thought of this theologian of the Age of Enlightenment, openness in the access to the own tradition of moral theology, but also in the access to the non-theological conceptions (mainly to the philosophers of 'moral sense' - Shaftesbury, Hutcheson, Butler). Zippe criticizes and integrates their impulses into his own conception of successful Christian life. Zippe was convinced of the necessity to join the ethical requirements based on reason with the requirement based on revelation. The author criticized the strong individualism in ethical conceptions, and maintained his own opinion in the concepts of 'moral sense' or 'instinct of sympathy'. Other author's publications:
