This article is based on two main concepts of hermeneutic experience (Dilthey's and Heidegger's approaches). The issues discussed concern, among other things, the question of relation between the experiencing subject's attitude and the content being experienced. The latter (objective importance) is rendered discernible from the objective content. In effect, the intentionality-based hermeneutic concept of experience reveals its basic feature: not only is daily experience independent as to content from a physical description of presence of a real object, but moreover, it constitutes the condition for soundness of the same.

TThe biographical method is one of the most characteristic methodological perspectives in the research of culture in Polish anthropology and sociology. According to this, human conduct is to be studied and understood from the perspective of the person involved, which is included in Florian Znaniecki's theory. Criticizing naturalism, he did not object natural science immobilizing its objects of research for its own purpose, and treating them as things. Biographical method exposes autonomy, self-determination and individual world view. Human experiences are not mental conditions, but objects and arrangement of objects. Human activities are not psychological processes, but functions of subjective origins and objective importance. Life history can be: complete, topical and edited. Due to its diachronic character, the biographical analysis of personal documents must generalize from the study of single cases. Cultural reality cannot be described so much in terms of casualty as in terms of the so-called long duration.

The author is concerned with the problem of the nature of experience conceived as a perspectival mental picture of the world. The question she raises is: Can we make sense of the representational view, according to which there are no such items subjective, nonrelational qualia, and all mental entities--treated by anti-representationalists as qualia--are nothing but configurations of representations? Her tentative answer is yes. She goes on to argue that the representational view is more promising than the antirepresentationalis approach that highlights the significance of nonrelational qualia.

The starting point for this utterance is the conviction that a trip into the depths of the human body has proved to be the most momentous and shocking experience that modernity elaborated. It initially required that the frontier set between knowledge and experience be revised, and the reflection-inclined 'me' be confronted with its sensual body. A special part in the process was played by the combination of the 'power of sight' with a 'fear of touch'. This is not, however, only about the eye and the hand slithering over the surface, but also, about a persistent strife for seeing and simultaneously touching what is deep. The consecutive sections of the texts, entitled: In search of the body; Stare and touch; Innocence; Fear of touch I/II/III, the authoress goes from the Carthesian ambivalence concerning the trip into underneath the flesh's surface, which also becomes an ambivalence of experiencing and cognition, through to how they are revised in science (Rosalind Franklin), art (Anna Günter) and poetry (Stanislaw Baranczak) of the latter half of the 20th century.

The poem Epos-nasza.1848 by C.K. Norwid is probably the first Polish literary allusion to Don Quixote. It is the evidence of the poet᾽s childhood reading of Cervantes with all the sensuality of this experience and melancholic clarity of perception it created in adult author. It is also the evidence of the significance of this experience in author᾽s art and life, taking into account both artistic and historical context (biography of the whole generation). Reading as such is the key to Norwid᾽s way of comprehending all phenomena of culture and civilisation. The figure of Don Quixote expresses values professed by the poet as well as modern world conflicts (individual vs crowd). The lyrical subject-poet᾽s identification with Don Quixote crosses the boundary between reality and fiction, drawing attention to the fundamental importance of literariness in the poem, which makes significant the opposition literariness/truth, and not fiction/reality.

Sartre's philosophy is analyzed against the background of the philosophical tradition of the cogito. His contributions seem most impressive in the area covered by such concepts as the subject, consciousness, self-awareness, liberty, otherness and human responsibility. Although these topics seem to have attracted his undiminished attention all the time, one should be aware that his views on these matters gradually changed in his lifetime. In social questions his main interests shifted from the role of consciousness to the ontology of practical activity. In the philosophy of the individual they shifted from individual conscience to the appreciation of individual past experience. But despite these changes he consistently retained the structure of 'présence-a-soi', first, as a specific indication of human experience, and secondly, as an idea underlying being, history and philosophy. 'Présence-a-soi', and the manner in which its pragmatic aspect is introduced into phenomenology to explain the constitutive activity of the empirical consciousness are essential factors used in the explanation of socially widespread images, thoughts and practices that flourish without having a discernible author.

This study focused on issues of information search patterns and the ways individuals use to reduce complexity of decision and form judgment on alternatives under conditions of incomplete information. The aim was to determine whether and how participants with a financial and migration experience differ from participants without this experience in acquiring and ordering information prior to choice of financial products and labour migration destination. The authors examined amount and content of information which were requested by participants in model decision tasks. Perceived expertise and experience seemed important for learning and reducing information overload. Considerable stability of preferences in decision tasks with limited and unlimited access to information was found. In pre-decisional information search dominant attributes were coming in pairs, where the first attribute related to major advantages and the second one to major costs of the potential outcomes both in financial and migration decision tasks.

In this paper I use the distinction between self-consciousness as an object of expe-rience and self-consciousness as the subject of experience proposed in Peter-Rudolf Horstmann's article „The Limited Significance of Self-Consciousness" in order to analyse Franz Brentano's descriptive psychology. The result of this analysis can be expressed in three theses: 1) Every self-consciousness is the consciousness of another self-consciousness. If there is self-consciousness, we have the essential conditions for it to know another self-consciousness. 2) Every self-knowledge is knowledge about another self-knowledge. I cannot know anything about myself which could not lead to knowledge about another. Even if the self-knowledge is not propositional, it is not an exclusive and unique fact. 3) Every objective self-knowledge is also non-objective self-knowledge. Selfconsciousness cannot be reduced to empirically tested features because it is always something more.

According to Husserl an idea (species) may be grasped by changing a visual experience of an individual object into a vision of the essence: ideation. On the basis of many individual perceptions we may become conscious of what is general. Later on Husserl acknowledged all ideal objects to be constituted by pure conscious experiences, thus to become intentional products of a transcendental subjectivity. Ingarden ascribes to an ideal being the following existential moments: autonomy, originality, non-actuality, distinctness, independence. An idea has two sides: a/ a content, comprising constants and variables and b/ the structure of idea as idea. It is the variables which determine the generality of ideas. Both constants and variables appear as components without differentiation.Ideas are beyond time and cannnot change. They are transcendent in relation to cognition and do not admit any interference. Then a relation between ideas and real objects is concerned. Husserl had detected the generality of ideas but it was Ingarden who stated what does it consist in, and namely in the presence of variables in the content of ideas.

The History of Ethics has often dissociated experience and rational normativity, which are the epistemological components of Ethics. Scheler has tried the synthesis of both through the phenomenological a prioris. But this experience is emotional and thus does not integrate enough in itself the person. This article analyses and develops the thesis of Wojtyla that there is a phenomenological experience which is simultaneously anthropological and ethical. For such an experience reveals the person in acting and her moral growth with the dinamysm of the person.

In his fundamental book, The Varieties of Religious Experience (1902), which enjoyed considerable attention among philosophers, psychologists, as well as religious studies specialists, William James, in the title itself, indicates his perception of the phenomenon of religious experience as extremely diverse. However, carrying distinctive elements of pragmatism and also James's theory of emotion (called James-Lange theory), the religious experience is here understood primarily as a strongly emotional phenomenon. Although James did not acknowledge the existence of specifically religious emotions, he considered emotions to be the most essential/ significant within the religious experience. The purpose of this paper is to present James’s concept of religious experience from the perspective of such characteristics as privacy, directness/immediacy or nobleness. An attempt undertaken here is to look at the essence of religion in the form of a religious experience through the reference to James's original theory of experience.

Having assumed that analysis of the language of art and divulgence of the conventionality of representations of the reality are the determinants of modernity in the arts, the avant-garde has virtually eliminated historical experience as part of its area of interest. As a result, the language of literature and modern (avant-garde) art proved impotent against the major historical experience of the twentieth century, that is, mass-scale genocide initiated by the Bolshevik revolution. The experience, once lost for the radical (post)modernist art in the former half of the century, has only been reconstructed through writings on the Holocaust and World-War II genocides. The condition for all those records has namely been the assumption of extra-textuality of historical experience, entailing inviolability of the category of the truth that verifies the basic sense, rather than a value, of any such writings. Historical experience proves to be the key element making the eastern-European modernism different from the American or western-European modernism.

In April 2021, longing to learn first-hand about ageing philosophically, Valery Vino reached out to the legendary Arnold Berleant (who was 89 at the time of writing), to see whether he might be interested in recording a dialogue to this theme, with a companion of his choice. Berleant selected his ideal collaborator Michael Alpert, book designer and collector, poet, senior, and treasured friend. Over the following six months, a rich tapestry of leisurely reading, contemplation and discussion unfolded, culminating in an unrehearsed, free-flowing conversation about ageing, which has been recorded, lightly edited and offered here for readers to share.

The Essay is concentrated on the most famous lecture of Mariusz Wilk. His publication confronts reader with creative, reformed literature. Moreover, reader will come across fascinated structure, in which he can find there mosaic of reportage, essay, dairy, and what is more important - these all sorts constitute not only - notes from the journey, but also experience, which is connected with domesticated issue. Author makes a question - what exactly is 'making a home place' or 'domesticated'? is this category realized only during the text level? As he has assured, in the Wilk's creativity it is not going only about rooting issue, which constitutes a borderline for human being, keep the man in a one place, border his possibility of absorption. In the 'Wolf's notebook', there is domestication as a state of settled down process, as assimilation process, tame process, which has exceeded otherness. As a result, otherness has a special capability, that is why - domesticated is focus on identity process. On the one hand, as author confirms - if reader will ask about author - there is not only one creators, there are two of them. First - makes a description of the experienced reality, and second - makes a trial of domestication in other motherhood culture. One the other hand, author of 'Wolf's notebook' is also a narrator, what makes other paradoxically oppositions such as: newcomer and native, he feels also 'like home', but also like a stranger. Author has convinced, it is possible to say, that character of the notebook has promised himself to achieve place to live on this world and maybe constitute renewed identity. She uses Ryszard Nycz's quotation and says - it is not possible to separate author from his experiences and telling the story, because between 'being stranger' and trial of domestication is situated additional identity trait - 'being writer'. Main character tries to convince reader, that only trial of rootedness gives cognitive possibilities, and as the result, struggle is a statement of text, which is much more real, than reality at all.

These so named 'thresholds' and 'borderlines' have been approached as two forms in which experience is structuralised. By making a reference to Victor Turner's findings, 'thresholds' may be related to the 'affective' path of experience and 'borderlines', to the cognitive path. Whereas early modernity, motivated by the project aiming at 'disenchanting' the world, has made borderlines privileged over thresholds, in the second stage of its development, the process of transformation of borderlines into thresholds follows, alongside a clearly distinct revalorisation of 'threshold' experiences. Performative artistic practices of the second half of the twentieth century took an active part in this latter process.

In our contemporary humanistic discussions, 'experience' appears, on the one hand, as a new source metaphor reorganising the field of research (V. Turner, E. Bruner); a 'real issue for humanities, again' (M. Jay); an antidote for a crisis of representationism (F. Ankersmit); and, on the other, as an expression of impossible or even undesirable issues (R.Rorty). Those advocating the momentousness of the issue of experience primarily focus on a border experience, determined through confrontation with the language, discursiveness, expressiveness. Experience is not considered as an attitude or touchstone of reliable knowledge but rather, as an extremely hard-to-access subject thereof, or even an aporia, which manifests itself clearest in the Holocaust-related issues. The questions of witness, testimony and certification, connected with the issue of experience, as discussed by Georgio Agamben in 'Quel che Resta di Auschwitz', entice the ethical dimension of humanities research to be considered as a question of the researcher's participation in the structure of attestation/certification.

The purpose of the article “Pragmatism in Poland – first reactions, early records” is to show the process of familiarizing Polish readers with this new philosophical trend, and its reception in Poland at the beginning of the 20th century. Polish scholars, despite the difficulties involved, were familiar with the main assumptions of pragmatism. The sources of their knowledge in this respect were most often studies conducted at western university centres. The main exponents of pragmatic ideas were: Florian Znaniecki (1882–1958), Władysław Mieczysław Kozłowski (1858–1935) and Stanisław Brzozowski (1878–1911), whereas Władysław Biegański (1857–1917) developed his views in opposition to pragmatism. However, it is necessary to point out that the role of Polish scholars in the development of pragmatism was insignificant. Kozłowski undoubtedly popularized the main ideas – views endorsed by pragmatists through his work, while the works of Znaniecki and Brzozowski were sources of information to the reader who was interested in philosophical novelties of the new intellectual movement, interchangeably called pragmatism or humanism. The mentioned scholars drew their philosophical inspirations from pragmatism, which in a sense they eventually assimilated; in consequence, pragmatism shaped their own original views.

According to the authors of this article, it is required to strengthen the coordinating function in an organisation to introduce management control. And to do so, controlling tools may prove very useful.

The main problems of modern philosophy concern sources, limits and character of knowledge. Objectivity and validity of knowledge are justified by critique and analysis of structure and function of the mind. Investigations focus primarily on the epistemological issues. Philosophers see the roots of meaning of language in mind or experience. Pure intuition of Descartes, experience of British Empiricists, universal language of Leibniz, Kant’s notions of the pure reason and Mill’s criteria of the correct reasoning are not connected to language. In their opinion language is not a suitable means of representing the world. A very fast development of empirical linguistic studies - works of Herder, Hamann and Humboldt etc. evoke much interest in language. The situation begins to change: critique of language is gradually taking place of critique of reason. Instead of ideas in the mind philosophers discuss linguistic expressions and question of how they refer to the world.
