Journal Title: Pedagogika Społeczna - Year 2018, Vol 69, Issue 3

Abstract

The interdisciplinarity of social gerontology encourages the use of the achievements of various sciences, the instruments of which may be helpful in deepening the knowledge about old age. In this article, the proposed source of inspiration for research on old age becomes the category of time. It shows the basic meaning of this category in reference to philosophical thought, its current use in research on old age. The review has a character signaling philosophical contexts, without embedding these concepts in the contexts of the history of philosophy. In addition, it is detailed in areas and questions which can inspire researchers on old age to use the category of time as both research canvas and interpretation canvas.
