Oblicza religii Augusta Cieszkowskiego. Temporalny i dziejowy wymiar doświadczenia religijnego
Journal Title: Scientia et Fides - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Faces of Religion of August Cieszkowski. Temporal and Historical Dimension of Religious Experience August Cieszkowski is one of the greatest philosophers of Polish philosophy of nation and history. He was also a thinker for whom religion played a formidable role in his philosophical system. If it had not been for religion, this system would not have existed at all. The present paper shows the importance of religious thinking in the whole historiosophical system of Cieszkowski. It underlines the fact that while the developing science was striving to “disenchant the world”, Cieszkowski as a philosopher wanted to “enchant the reality” afresh. However, this “enchanting” was not being performed “against science”. Quite to the contrary, this Polish thinker was employing scientific achievements to demonstrate that “religion is everything”. Divinity is not placed in the mysterious and isolated sacred any more but constitutes our daily life and action.
