Wychowanie a wolność. Próba wglądu w myślenie pedagogiczne Józefa Tischnera

Abstract

The text written from the perspective of philosophical pedagogy is an attempt to understand the pedagogical thought of one of the philosophers of freedom – Jozef Tischner. The author poses the task of extracting the meanings and sense present in Tischner’s source texts and statements he gives to education and instruction. It serves two purposes. The first one responds to the needs of pedagogy, which seeks philosophical justifications for undertaken pedagogical activity. The second one is more closely related to the need of philosophy; it is about checking how the pedagogical reflection fits into the philosophical concept of the author of “Thinking by values” and what it brings to it. By specifying the second goal, the author wants to look for the answer to the question: is Tischner’s pedagogy a consistent application of his philosophy of freedom, or does it extend this philosophy and supplement it with pedagogical aspect, invisible from the perspective of philosophy itself.
