Vladimir Jankélévitch – „To, co nieuchronne”

Journal Title: Amor Fati - Year 2015, Vol 1, Issue 4

Abstract

The article aims at reviewing Vladimir Jankélévitch’s book entitled “Penser la mort?” which is the only book of this author available in Polish translation. In the first part of the text the author tries to describe the views of Jankélévitch and emphasize their importance for the contemporary philosophy. Jankélévitch turns out to be a typical representative of the so-called philosophie de l’esprit . This classification is the starting point for further reflection and allows to look in the right way at the statements contained in the reviewed book. In the second part the author tries to polemicize with some thesies of Jankélévitch (relating to the problems of birth and death, the definition of religion and many different problems in the fields of philosophical anthropology and bioethics). The point of the text is (according to “Penser la mort?”) that the philosophical investigations of Jankélévitch seem to be not considered enough.
