The article is concerned with the question of individuality from the perspective of (mainly analytical) philosophy of language. It examines various concepts of individuality and their relation to normative structures of responsibility: individuality in the sense of concrete identity as situated personal irreplaceability; individuality in the sense of exclusion as situated irreplaceability of role/office/function. In conclusion a suggestion is put forward for the analysis of the concept of identity as the specific realisation of the possibilities of a human a linguistic being.

The article contains interpretations of verses written by Marta Podgórnik during last twenty years (1996-2016). This analysis of Silesian writer’s poetry lead to recognitions of aspects, themes, images, particularites it includes. Podgórnik creates pictures of unsubmissive and indyvidualistic women, which must exist out of main discourses: patriarchal and feministic. But the most important in this poetry is language used for poetic but subversive descriptions of painful experiences, also by using intertextual references.

In Japan, there is a famous social welfare cooperation that is called “Taiyou no ie,” Japan Sun Industries. It was originally established for disabled people in 1965 by Dr. Nakamura for their integration into society, participation in sports and coordination of self-support. It was definitely a landmark idea in rehabilitation since Japanese society is prone to collectively follow fixed ideas. Nevertheless, Dr. Nakamura tried to introduce individuality and flexibility in order to build up real self-esteem in people with disabilities. Individuality and flexibility were the main differences between the disabled and non-disabled when it comes to surviving in their difficult conditions. Dr. Nakamura was the forerunner of diversity management. After his pioneering work, there are nowadays a number of similar companies and institutions in Japan. Moreover, there are governmental support systems of employment for both the companies and the disabled. Notwithstanding, there is still stagnadtion in employment of disabled people because of insufficient mutual understanding.

In this article I reconstruct some crucial concepts of John Dewey's naturalistic philosophical anthropology and ethics to show their importance for the Deweyan concept of democracy. In particular, I focus on such concepts, as “human nature”, “selfhood”, “individuality”, and “self-realization”, and argue that these concepts are indispensable if we want to effectively grasp what Dewey intended in his ideal of democracy. In this way I hope to show the vital significance of Dewey's thought for contemporary controversies in philosophical anthropology, ethics, social and political philosophy.

The philosophy of Henri Bergson was popular, almost fashionable in pre-war Paris. This article poses the question how and to what extent Bergson’s philosophy was reflected in the years 1918–1948 by the Czechoslovak philosophers of the time (T. Trnka, F. Pelikán, K. Vorovka, F. Mareš or V. Hoppe). The influence of Bergson is evidenced by Trnka’s book titled A Dead End of Modern Philosophy (Moderní filosofie ve slepé uličce, 1924), in which Trnka offers an independent evaluation of the state of philosophy of his time: Bergsonian intuitive irrationalism, Trnka claims, has led philosophy to a critical noetic peak, after which a collapse transpires. The goal of this paper is to shed light on certain tendencies of intuitivism, irrationalism and individualism in Inter-War Czechoslovak Philosophy; using as examples the two aforementioned authors, F. Mareš and V. Hoppe, we want to show how (and if) Trnka’s “Dead End” appears in their philosophy, and how (and if) this “collapse” indirectly forms their philosophy

There exists a dispute in philosophy, going back at least to Leibniz, whether is it possible to view the world as a network of relations and relations between relations with the role of objects, between which these relations hold, entirely eliminated. Category theory seems to be the correct mathematical theory for clarifying conceptual possibilities in this respect. In this theory, objects acquire their identity either by definition, when in defining category we postulate the existence of objects, or formally by the existence of identity morphisms. We show that it is perfectly possible to get rid of the identity of objects by definition, but the formal identity of objects remains as an essential element of the theory. This can be achieved by defining category exclusively in terms of morphisms and identity morphisms (objectless, or object free, category) and, analogously, by defining category theory entirely in terms of functors and identity functors (categoryless, or category free, category theory). With objects and categories eliminated, we focus on the “philosophy of arrows” and the roles various identities play in it (identities as such, identities up to isomorphism, identities up to natural isomorphism ...). This perspective elucidates a contrast between “set ontology” and “categorical ontology”.

The article presents problem of social difference and the related mechanisms of exclusion. The paper shows the process how the difference needed in the world is born inequality, discrimination, human suffering, often as unwanted and unintended consequences of group processes. The factor differentiating way to experience the social difference and forms of engagement in reality, is the human identity. The text presents the arguments in favor of the thesis that the difference does not necessarily lead to inequality, and a key role in this process is the identity of the man, with his basic need of recognition. Educational activities are considered an important factor in institutional support in this process. Also shows the process of individualization (the problem of individualism) in the social world as an essential factor in the offending unfavorable balance between an inclusion and social exclusion.

At the beginning, the author presents some basic intuitions determining the necessity for philosopher’s reflections on not only numerical singularity, but also individuality. Then he considers briefly four selected types of individuality, namely: anything existing, the universe, a person and the Absolute. Nevertheless, for different reasons, in each of these cases it is possible to assume an impossible to fully express entity, that is, individuality. The next part develops the idea of a person’s individuality which stays directly linked with his or her permanent act of self-creation. The essence of the act would lie in a radical distinction between the person and any other human being as well as in generating the own, absolute personal otherness. At more accurate, largely speculative characteristics of this act it turns out to be necessary to redefine such categories like duty, responsibility, trust.

The text is an attempt to use of Richard Borowicz research as inspiration. The aim is to broaden the perspective of research on the problem of social selection in the education system by adding a psychosocial aspect. The article contains a theoretical reference in order to allow for an explanation of the effectiveness of the mechanism of auto-selection and placement of it in the social practices of everyday life. Interactional perspective makes the problem of social inequalities present in the experience and consciousness of man. On the other hand individualistic tendencies in society are the conditions under which self-selection mechanism can both be forced out from public awareness, as well as subject to deregulation. The latter phenomenon may lead to equal opportunities.

The starting point for this study is the thesis that disability multidimensionally determines human functioning, enhances human uniqueness and is favourable for emphasizing a person’s individuality. This inspires to use a study of an individual case as a method not only of its cognition and description but also its understanding. The method also makes it easier to construct individual concepts of functioning of a person with disability in the jungle of many biological, psychological and social determinants. Moreover, for the researcher – the method may become a valuable source of experience and an inspiration for his/her own (not only scientific) development. To provide justification for this thesis, a survey of case studies is made, with special focus on the authorial typology of didactic (educational) goals – the aims which are usually underrated in scientific works. What follows are the possible typologies of the discussed method and the author’s suggestions concerning the construction of a case study of a disabled person. The text is completed with final conclusions.

This publication analyzes the humanistic ideas of personal development in the pedagogical heritage of J. Dewey. In particular it is stated that J. Dewey saw interrelated changes in rational and emotional areas that characterize the level of harmony, its self-aggrandizement in this development. The author has accepted the fact that namely achievement of this harmony is the strategic direction of humanistic education in modern families of the USA. The author has defined the key ideas of humanistic education in the family, namely the relationship of school and family education with the realities of life; the orientation of the educational process on the child’s activity, on the fulfillment of specific practical cases, on its interests. It is found out that the concept of education by J. Dewey refers to pragmatism. The position of a theorist about the organization of a family upbringing combines socio-oriented and child-oriented ideas. It is noted that J. Dewey appreciated American democracy and considered humanistic education of the child in the family as a key of its preservation and strengthening. The significant tendency in the concept of «school of child’s life» by J. Dewey is the reliance on natural processes of physical and spiritual growth, on satisfaction of natural inclinations, on organization of children’s activities in the educational process. The study has revealed the relevance of humanistic pedagogy of John Dewey which requires the parents to adapt to the individual characteristics of the child, to provide an atmosphere of comfort and «psychological safety». The reformer’s recommendations for the teachers and parents that engage home education are focused on: the unity of the development and education; differentiation and diversification of educational influences; individualization of educating communication; creating the favorable conditions for the development of aptitudes and abilities of the child; a comfortable interaction between different generations in the family; psychological safety, protection of the child; a faith in its strength and capabilities; adoption of the child as it is; positioning of the child’s behavior and actions with success; a change of the target set education on the individual development of the child; providing systematic «spiritual meetings with intelligent people». The perspective direction of the research is the pedagogical analysis and recommendations for the parents in the works of J. Dewey and A. S. Makarenko.

Krzysztof Śmietana le¢ Poland in 1980 to study in London as the only recipient of the British Petroleum Scholarship who was not a British national. A¢er returning to Poland in December 1981 to spend Christmas with his family, martial law was suddenly imposed and Śmietana was denied the right to leave for London and told his studies there had concluded. Fortunately, a friend helped him return to London where he subsequently expressed his outrage and sorrow, protesting against the regime in Poland during the „Medical Support for Poland” concert. Back in Great Britain, his artistry was quickly realised. He was invited to perform in the most prestigious halls and appeared on BBC Radio 3 with the highest appreciation in many critics’ reviews. roughout many of these concerts Śmietana had brought to light concertos by Szymanowski and Panufnik, was guest concertmaster of orchestras such as the LSO – PROMS at the Royal Albert Hall are examples of his abundant successes. e family from whom he rented a room were so full of admiration for his artistic endeavours that they made a beautiful 18th Century Neapolitan violin available for Śmietana. Owing to his clarity of musical ideas and ample attention to detail, Krzysztof Śmietana has reached the summits of classical music and taken his place among the very best.

Methods of research: The theoretical analysis of scientific sources in psychology and contemporary practical researches. Analysis and systematization of the basic concepts of modern psychology, adaptation. Conclusions. The global transformation processes are taking place in a contemporary society. In this regard, there are problems of adaptation and exclusion of a modern individuality to deep-laid social processes. The problem is deepened by the difference in rates of processes in society and by the speed and efficiency of adaptation processes of an individuality both assimilation and accommodation. That is why a problem of researching modern phenomena and providing psychological assistance to an individuality for increasing efficiency of a individuality’s adaptation in contemporaryy society becomes necessary and urgent.

This article intends to characterize the constructive function that the Indeterminate Duality may have played in Plato’s oral teaching. Far from being in itself – as some testimonia seem to suggest – the primary origin of evil, as origin of multiplicity the Indeterminate Duality can be perceived as intrinsically presupposed by Plato’s identification of the source of being with the supreme Good. The notion of good implicates for Plato namely an unconditioned impulse to relationality, which indicates that the supreme Good is to be considered as supreme origin not only of unity, but also of multiplicity (scil. non-unity) and alterity. In the absence of multiplicity and alterity, no real relation, and, therefore, no real manifestation of the Good could in fact take place. As a consequence (and in accord with the suggestions given by Simplicius), the Indeterminate Duality may be considered as source of that original differentiation as well as of that generativity without which the supreme Good would be discordant with its goodness.

Schleiermacher, joining an ancient scheme, divides philosophy into dialectics, ethics and physics. There is no place for the hermeneutics in it. Both dialectics and ethics are speculative sciences. Hermeneutics, on the contrary, is a technical discipline that is placed near the politics and pedagogy. Does it mean that there are no connections between hermeneutics and ethics? No, there are. The answers on the essence of these connections devide the main interpreters of his philosophy: M. Frank says that hermeneutics is discovered closely to the dialectics which is its source. G. Scholtz does not negate that connection, but he at the same time suggests that the real source of hermeneutics is an anthropological vision contained in his ethics. My article is an attempt to take position in this discussion. It consists in three main parts: 1. Ethics and the concept of individuality Schleiermacher; 2. thical-anthropological presumptions of his hermeneutical notion of understanding; 3. Dialecticsas a dialogical conception of man.

The paper aims to investigate the link between self-shaping and intersubjectivity from a phenomenological perspective. This means that two main topics are here at stake. On the one hand, the paper purports to argue that tackling the link between self-shaping and intersubjectivity from a phenomenological perspective is a meaningful (§1) and sound approach (§2). On the other hand, the paper purports to argue that such an analysis enables us to bring to light an inherent linkage that tethers the topic of intersubjectivity to the sway that other persons hold over one’s process of self-shaping. This influence will be gradually investigated. Firstly, Husserl’s stance on other persons as “variations of my self” (“Abwandlungen meiner Selbst”) will allow us to understand why other persons might hold sway over one’s process of self-shaping and self-knowledge (§3). Secondly, exemplariness will turn out to be the way through which other persons might hold sway over one’s process of self-shaping and self-knowledge: Scheler’s stance on exemplariness will be examined since he makes us treat the question of exemplariness from the standpoint of the process of the formation of individuality: exemplars hold sway over such a process (§4). So, we will rely upon the Husserlian thesis (“the other person is an intentional variation of my self”-“der Andere [ist] eine intentionale Abwandlung meiner selbst”) and the Schelerian thesis (others could become exemplars for me) to argue for a thesis that goes beyond Husserl’s and Scheler’s perspectives: others as exemplars shed light on the eidetic possibilities of myself and others could become exemplars for me since they are variations of myself; that is, they exemplify untaken possibilities of myself.1 We will argue that exemplariness is the key to the link between the issue of intersubjectivity and the process of self-shaping.

The aim of the article is presentation of two concepts of human individuality which have arisen in modern Polish philosophy of Mieczysław Gogacz and Stanisław Judycki. It is an attempt to look at the problem from two different philosophical perspectives: Thomistic metaphysics and phenomenological epistemology. Metaphysical approach is searching for an answer to the question about human individuality in their ontic structure, whereas phenomenological approach focuses on the analysis of a direct experience. As reason of individuality, Gogacz indicates potential intellect (passive) subjected in a substantial form (soul). Judycki maintains that this reason is the concept of God, according to whom He creates a soul of every human being as radically different from all other human souls, unique. Presented theories develop from a different way of understanding a human being. Gogacz’s theory has a substantial character, refers to the concept of a human of Aristotle, Boethius and St. Thomas Aquinas. Judycki’s concept is a relational approach, modified by elements of substantialist philosophy. He refers to relational approach of Plato, Saint Augustine and Descartes as well as substantialist theories of Aristotle and St. Thomas Aquinas. Thomistic and phenomenological approaches to individuality introduce fundamentally different and essential substance to philosophy concerning human beings.

On 7th May 1907, after publishing the play Prokletstvo in literary magazine „Savremenik”, the censorship approved performing the play in the Croatian national theatre in the theater season 1906/1907 under the condition that it would have passed through some radical changes. However, twenty days later all rehearsals were banned. Authors, Milan Ogrizović and Andrija Milčinović, show their brief union in resisting censorship publishing Prokletstvo into a separate book in year 1907 with Matosʼ Prologue that critically assails the institutions that stopped the play. Content and repercussions of Matosʼ editorial in Prokletstvo are the starting point of this article that outlines the cultural and political situation in Croatia in the first decade of the 20th century.

The aim of this paper is a summary and comparison of the aesthetic writings and journalistic activities of Stanisław Ignacy Witkiewicz and Stanisław Witkiewicz and look at their conceptions of the social impact of art. Stanisław Witkiewicz and his son Stanisław Ignacy recognize the uniqueness and tal-ent units for the highest value in an area as art as social life, and the development and improvement of their own personality considered as the basic duty of every human be-ing. A primary role in the shaping of sensitivity, according to the artists, should have a professional art criticism, practiced by trained experts. As can be seen from the writings of aesthetic and journalistic Stanisław and Stanisław Ignacy Witkiewicz, though both artists walk in one way, their intentions are different. The aim of improvement and sensitizing units, in theory Stanisław Witkiewicz is to create a basis for the creation of a future ideal society, while the objective of the journalistic his son Stanisław Ignacy, was striving to reverse the trend of massification of society.
