ABSTRACT

Hubert Mikolajczyk published Antropologia Kierkegaarda w swietle kantowskiej filozofii praktycznej in 1995. This book is a continuation of the author's research, which he began in the 1980s, on the issue of the impact of Kant's thought on Søren Kierkegaard's anthropology. Mikolajczyk, recognized as an authority on the subject neo-Kantianism and hermeneutics, aims, as he did in the first book, to present the historical and anthropological threads which contributed to the development of Kierkegaard's theory of existence. In the Preface Mikolajczyk describes Kierkegaard's philosophy and claims that the theistic doctrine of Kierkegaard is not irrational. Mikolajczyk also focuses on the relationship between Kierkegaard and Socrates and their relation to the problem of knowledge and time. Mikolajczyk's work is highly recommended for those who are interested in philosophical anthropology but also those who are interested in the relation of reason and existence. The work is organized in a logical manner. Numerous threads that are contained in it interweave with one another.
