The article contains an analysis of the concept of aesthetic experience of Gianni Vattimo in the horizon of his hermeneutics. It refers to the views of Friedrich Nietzsche, Martin Heidegger and Walter Benjamin, from which Vattimo drew his inspirations. These considerations focus on the thesis that the aesthetic experience of contemporary art, which causes confusion and alienation, “weakens” the metaphysical way of thinking and also “reality” and human identity which are based on it. However, the impact of contemporary art seems to be positive because it gives an opportunity to develop a new kind of vulnerability that is associated with openness to all that is various, different, variables, fragile, incomplete and transient. Aesthetic experience is considered in relation to the trends that are characteristic for late modernity. In the article there is also analyzed the problem of the ambivalence of technology and the mass media in the process of “weakening” the fictional reality.

W artykule przedstawiono elementy filozofii religii włoskiego filozofa Gainniego Vattima skupione wokół zagadnienia sekularyzacji i jej relacji z chrześcijaństwem lub przynajmniej z pewną interpretacją tej religii. Refleksję nad desakralizacją świata przedstawioną w myśli Vattima ujęto w ramy klasyfikacji sekularyzacji dokonanej przez Taylora i Węcławskiego, a następnie zestawiono z koncepcją Rorty’ego, który twierdzi, że jego pogląd jest podobny do przedstawianego przez Vattima. Nie ma jednak wystarczających podstaw, aby przychylać się do tezy Rorty’ego.

A part of the Italian philosopher Gianni Vattimo’s philosophy of religion, focused on the question of secularization and its relation to Christianity or at least to some interpretation of this religion, is presented in the article. The concept of desacralizing the world which is present in Vattimo’s thought is considered on the grounds of Taylor’s and Węcławski’s classification of secularization, and then compared with Rorty’s concept, which claims to be similar to Vattimo’s. However, there is no sufficient base on which one could support Rorty’s thesis.

The idea of the end of history is of philosophical importance and is broadly commented by the representatives of various philosophical traditions. In the following text we present the way in which this idea is understood in the postmetaphysical thought by referring to three of its representatives: Gianni Vattimo, Odo Marquard, and Villém Flusser. In spite of the differences between their accounts of the end of history, one can also see a certain common trait connected mostly with the understanding of history as a metanarrative and with the critical attitude towards metaphysics.

Idea końca historii jest nośna filozoficznie i szeroko komentowana przez przedstawicieli wielu tradycji filozoficznych. W niniejszym tekście przedstawiamy, jak owa idea jawi się w filozofii postmetafizycznej, odwołując się do trzech jej reprezentantów: Gianniego Vattima, Odo Marquarda i Viléma Flussera. Mimo różnic, które występują w ich ujęciach końca historii, można także zauważyć pewien wspólny rys, związany głównie z rozumieniem historii jako metanarracji oraz z krytycznym stosunkiem do metafizyki.

Philosophical hermeneutics has become an unavoidable reference in the field throughout the twentieth century but has seldom been extended to draw conclusions in the area of political theory. Two intellectuals that have contributed to such a project are Charles Taylor and Gianni Vattimo, although they exhibit some important differences in key aspects of this enterprise, both at the level of the conceptual premises and at that of the prescribed policies and objectives. Here I examine these thinkers’ notion of tradition – an essential feature of hermeneutical theories – its ontological underpinnings, and the place each of them assign to it in sociopolitical decision-making, especially in the context of multicultural societies. In the end, I argue for the superiority of Taylor’s model of understanding and employing tradition in current political and moral debates.

The paper describes the situation of art works in the times of late modernity by presenting Gianni Vattimo, one of the most important representatives of modern hermeneutics. Art’s historical narrative has collapsed due to civilisational transformation – mainly thanks to the invention of technological means for the mass reproduction of images. Two of the primary traits of art works from a traditional perspective – originality and authenticity – have nowadays been undermined. Vattimo calls this phenomenon ‘an explosion of aesthetics’.

In Italy for the last decade, a very interesting public debate has been conducted about artificial reproduction. An important step in this discussion was the adoption in 2004 a special law regulating the use of the in vitro method. In 2014 the Constitutional Court cancelled the prohibition, existing in this document, of the methods of heterological artificial reproduction. A very important part of the debate on the Tiber are different kinds of philosophical arguments. The most interesting or very representative voices in this discussion include statements of Oriana Fallaci, Vittorio Possenti, and Gianni Vattimo.

The death of God thesis is a siginificant one when it comes to the contemporary philosophy of religion. In this article we will try to present this thesis in the light of Gianni Vattimo’s philosophy in order to clarify the meaning of the death of God and also to critisize it. The article will be divided into three sections. The aim of the first one will be to show the ways in which the death od God thesis should not be understood. The aim of the second will be to present the actual meaning of the thesis. And the third one will be devoted to the critique of Gianni Vattimo’s philosophy of religion which constitutes itself as a result of accepting the death of God thesis.

Teza o śmierci Boga jest niezwykle istotna we współczesnej filozofii religii. W niniejszym artykule postaramy się ukazać tę tezę w świetle filozofii Gianniego Vattima, aby wyjaśnić jej znaczenie oraz ją skrytykować. Artykuł zostanie podzielony na trzy sekcje. Celem pierwszej z nich będzie ukazanie niepoprawnych dróg rozumienia tezy o śmierci Boga. Celem drugiej zaprezentowanie właściwego jej znaczenia. Trzecia zaś poświęcona będzie krytyce filozofii religii Gianniego Vattima, która konstytuuje się jako wynik przyjęcia tezy o śmierci Boga.

Статья является результатом исследования отношений между герменевтической философией Ханса-Георга Гадамера и постмодернизмом, представленным Джанним Ваттимо и Ричардом Рорти. В тексте анализируется понятие истории (Geschichte), особое внимание уделяется ее эффективному влиянию на автора, текст, интерпретатора и традицию, происходящее в гер-меневтическом диалоге (слияние горизонтов). Постмодернистской, конструктивистской интерпретации этого процесса, в которой опущена истина текста, противопоставляется универ-салистская концепция, в которой интерпретация понимается как процесс поиска логоса в диалоге.

The article is a result of a research on the relations between the hermeneutic philosophy of Hans-Georg Gadamer and the postmodernism represented by Gianni Vattimo and Richard Rorty. The author analyses the notion of history (Geschichte) and its effective influence on an author, a text, an interpretator and a tradition in the hermeneutical dialogue (the fusion of horizons). The article opposes the postmodern, constructivistic approach, in which the truth of a text is made known to the universalistic conception in which an interpretation is understood as the process of searching for logos in a dialogue.

The efforts taken by the "soft" (inclusive) positivists (H.L.A. Hart's followers, ie. J. Coleman, W. Waluchow, M. Kramer, K. E. Himma) to defend the legal positivist position (the separability thesis, the social sources thesis) are combined with theoretical references to the moral arguments which are present in judicial practice. Therefore, the inclusive positivists treat the relationship between law and morality as a contingent relationship and try to justify it on the basis of the system’s overriding rule of recognition. This position, as an attempt to find the "golden mean" in theory of law, is criticized both by non-positivists and "hard" positivists. For instance, R. Dworkin or L. Morawski claim that, despite its declarations, soft positivism actually does not respond to the requirements of modern legal practice and is a "degenerated" and stagnant research program. On the other hand, J. Raz contends that due to the incorporation of morality, soft positivism is no longer a real positivism. The article presents a defense of soft positivism, especially against its non-positivistic critics, as well as a version of soft positivism, which can be called a "constructive" one (V. Villa). It also shows that soft positivism, as being consistent with the "spirit" of positivism and complying with the requirements of the present judicial practice, may be justified by reference to postmodern thinking.
